Sorry, misclick. The city & Acadiana need to really get behind this bowl & promote it. There will be clips before & during the game of the local atmosphere, geography, etc. Also, there is nothing more embarassing than to see a game on TV where the stands are obviously half full. It reflects on the host city & their enthusiasm to support whatever event is being held. Lafayette & the region is getting a free opportunity to promote itself on the national level.
You can spin it any way you want & I have a vested interest, but in the most realistic sense, ASU won head to head. They deserve to represent.
