Only a Doog would talk shit about a trophy they haven't won in 20 years.
Our best wasn't the Rose Bowl. It was the Orange Bowl
Tl;dr on its way:
During my formative years in Miami (thank God), I grew up on a steady diet of Orange Bowl national championships, with an occasional Sugar.
Then when I moved up here, I became acquainted with the Rose Bowl, which people in the west always insisted was the only bowl that mattered. I was ready to accept this, but I was also fed a steady diet of the Pac beating the Big in the Rose. This was how I saw the world. We? were better. I missed the prior era of the Big dominating the game.
It formed in me a couple of admittedly odd points of view. First, I fell in love with this conference, a feeling I have to this day. I was so impressed because we? (one of us) beat some of the big-name teams I grew up hearing about so much (OSU/Mich). But it also made me think, "what's the big deal with this bowl? why do they like it so much? it's never best on best.
The fact that the Rose Bowl meant more than the game itself escaped me. The symbolism of fleeing the cold to fly to the west coast paradise to see your team was something that meant nothing to me because one thing we had in abundance in So Fla is great weather during the winter. So I just didn't get it. I always wanted the P10 teams I thought were so cool to be free to play elsewhere and not be tied into this fucking limited game against these big lumbering slow teams that we? always seemed to beat.
It's why one of my favorite memories are those of any P10 team playing OOC and beating some big name program. Which, coincidentally, also marks the source of my aggravation with my alma mater: that being their inability to punch Notre Dame in the mouwf. JFC But I danced around like a Kansas City faggot when we? beat Okie in the Orange.

If the new Vegas bowl still holds up to be a Pac 12 #2/3 against the SEC it could end up holding a similar clout to the Rose Bowl over time.
New stadium, win over an LSU/Auburn type of program, Vegas. Could actually be really great for the Pac fans. SEC fans might even care. -

It is a huge step up for the pac12 over the Alamo, but it’s assinine to say it could have similar clout to the rose bowl.haie said:If the new Vegas bowl still holds up to be a Pac 12 #2/3 against the SEC it could end up holding a similar clout to the Rose Bowl over time.

@Gladstone ? True?Swaye said:
I'm glad we got this sorted. Race taught me many moons ago not to be one of those fags who diminishes winners. Winners win, and losers talk about why winners shouldn't be winners.MikeSeaver said:
You’re correct. Probably quoted the wrong guy.RaceBannon said:
That's pretty much what he wrote. Thanks for the translation into duckMikeSeaver said:
The last time UW won a Rose Bowl it was in standard definition and you beat #14 AP/coaches, #17 BCS, Purdue.Swaye said:
No doubt. Wisconsin is garbage.This is Tui beating Purdue level stuff here. Thing is I was at the Tui beating shitty ass Purdue Rose Bowel and I don't really ever think about the fact we beat a shitty team to win it. I just think about the feeling of winning it. Nobody ever remembers you beat a shit team. They just remember you are winners.Gladstone said:Oh I'm on board that we've been soft dick losers in every game with a pulse, but the Rose Bowl emo meltdown is a bit much as Wisconsin is a billion orders of magnitude shittier than that Ohio State team.
Sorry kiddos.
Credit to Cristoball. I thought he was going to be a shitbag. Turns out he won a Rose Bowl in year 2 while we were on the 6 year "process plan" to lose one.
Gay ass #FlexFriday works. Who knew?
Nobody cares.
Into the trophy case with a Black XL T-shirt.
Was still fun to write though. -

The country was a much more regional place not that many years ago. -
But I was hearing from retards here that ricks rose bowl win didn’t count because Purdue was 9-4Swaye said:
Exactly. Nobody ever cares who you beat, just that you won. Wisconsin is hot garbage. And so was Purdue. And so was Iowa. Etc. NOGAF. Winners win and hoist trophies. Losers diddle themselves in the losers locker room and talk about how TUFF Ohio State was.ntxduck said:

Can't we? move it to a better place than Vegas though?haie said:If the new Vegas bowl still holds up to be a Pac 12 #2/3 against the SEC it could end up holding a similar clout to the Rose Bowl over time.

Part of what makes the Rose Bowl is where it is. So Cal is full of people for a razone. It's paradise.
Can't that game be in San Diego or LA?
