I have to request my work days off in December this week. Any advice on what days to ask off for a bowl game?

Montgomery, New Orleans, and Orlando are all on the 17th and Mobile is on the 23rd. Those are the Sun Belt tie ins, chances are low that we don't get one of those.

MackAttack covered it. I would add that, depending on your location, I'd plan to get to town whenever you can the day before the game, then head back the day after. There are lots of festivities that Friday that are worth taking in to get the full experience.

If we go to Montgomery again, I'll plan to drive down Friday as I did last year. If it's New Orleans and I can make it, I might try to go a day early to have some extra time in the city.
