Bowl Game

<p>D is reporting that the Football team has been invited to play in a bowl game in NOLA on Dec. 21. She didn't give the name of the bowl and I haven't looked it up.</p>

<p>She wants to stay and go to the game and miss extended family Christmas celebrations. I will likely let her, how often does one get a chance to go to a bowl game in NOLA without spending much extra money?</p>

<p>The New Orleans Bowl…pretty cool! Glad Tulane got into a Bowl Game! How Exciting!</p>

<p>Yes, it is fantastic. Just remember there is probably an extra cost to attend the game, as we found out back in September: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/tulane-university/1549521-tulane-football-game-student-cost.html?[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/tulane-university/1549521-tulane-football-game-student-cost.html?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Also, make sure she double checks dorm availability. Not sure when the students have to be out by this year, but it is usually the day after finals are done which is the 17th this year. Maybe she could contact housing and see if they are changing the schedule because of the bowl game.</p>

<p>Finally, I am not saying I am ready to go on ESPN as a college football analyst or anything, but after a 2 win season last year I did predict this. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/tulane-university/1546492-first-day-s-classes-feedback-2.html?[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/tulane-university/1546492-first-day-s-classes-feedback-2.html?&lt;/a&gt; post #29 And it could have easily been an 8 or 9 win season instead of 7. The only game where we got beat badly was Syracuse. The ones we lost were usually by less than a touchdown. Of course we won a couple squeakers as well. Hopefully CJ can keep the defense at a high level and get the offense moving next year.</p>

<p>Good points about the housing, FC! While D did start the semester in the dorms, she moved off campus in October, so she should have a place to stay for that week. I will have to tell her she will need to pay for her ball game ticket. Maybe she can pick up some extra shifts at Reginelli’s that week to pay for it. :)</p>

<p>They are playing Univ of Louisiana Lafayette</p>
