Re: Camellia Bowl
Our first FBS game against the MAC (I saw us play Ball State in Conrad Stadium in the 70's). A game with good atmosphere, decent weather in December, drivable for most fans, exact same weekend as the Chattanooga game. Why would lots of fans not want to watch our Mountaineers!!! Think of it as game #13 if the idea of a bowl isn't appealing.

To me it is just another non conference game and why the hell does that deserve a trophy? Just being honest. So I was just going to watch on TV happy to see us play one more game. Well long story short decided today to go. Got to thinking what if I really regret not seeing an ASU first. It would be too late to go back in time. So I go to the bowl. Who know maybe I have a change of hart on bowls. at least I will not have regrets for missing it.

Re: Camellia Bowl
Glad you're coming to the game bcoach. I have been to two bowl games with friends from other schools (1991 Peach Bowl for ECU/NCSU and the Meineke Bowl Wake/UConn), and believe me it is more than just another non-conference game when done right. It will have a very similar feel to the National Championship games with all the festivities for the fans. Both fans bases will have a ton of people in town which makes it more fun talking football and for some a little smack. I think you'll be very happy with your decision once you get there.bcoach wrote:Well here is the deal. If you have the ability to go and are on the fence, just do it. I have never believed in bowls.
