Bojangles is the only answer
It's Bo time
Along with:
"The Cheerwine Cherry Bowl"
-Once the New Years (Eve) Six becomes a thing, it'll just be the Cherry Bowl (Presented by Cheerwine).
Other candidates: Krispy Kreme, Food Lion, NASCAR, Lowe's ...at least 3 of these feature do(ugh)nuts.
The trophy needs to be a giant, and I mean GIANT, cajun filet biscuit
But Bojangles Bowl just sounds so clunky. Can we shorten it to Bo-bowl and just make it sound like everyone has a stutter.
Bo Bowl is perfect.
Cheddar bo biscuit bowl
Bo Bowl, Ya'll!
Gotta say ya'll in there.
Bo-Berry-Bowl
Bo-wl
Bo-l
to tie it back to the holidays - The 'Jangle Bowl

You win a big ole Bo-Box full of cheddar bo-rounds served to you by Scotty Fuckin McReary himself, Bo!
I wonder how much it costs to sponsor a bowl game, and if it's just buying naming rights at this point.
I think r/cfb did it a few years back. Or maybe it was co-sponsor
Pretty sure r/cfb wanted to sponsor, but it would cost like $400k to do so.
Sort of along those same lines, if I ever win a crazy lottery, like a mega millions or powerball kinda thing, I want to buy a small Super Bowl commercial spot. Just like two seconds of me waving and saying "howdy" or something like that.
Stew Mandell said on the audible a couple weeks ago that the Athletic considered sponsering a bowl game, and that, while there's no way they could sponsor one of the 'big games,' they definitely could sponsored a smaller bowl games.
Hopefully whoever runs the Twitter account (I'm assuming an outside company) will still be involved in CFB. They're excellent.
Maybe VT should hire them....
They work for the bowl game not the sponsor as far as I remember from a few years ago when they interviewed them.
Def one of my favorite Twitter follows.
I guess Belk never fully recovered from the Jeremy Sprinkle shoplifting incident. Then again, neither has Arky. Shame.
TKP should sponsor the bowl. All we need is about 20,000 more KPC members!!
*checks membership numbers*
Hell yeah bro, can't wait for my kids to go to the 2069 TKP Dork Magic Bowl.
Nice
( Ν‘~ ΝΚ Ν‘Β° )
$19,999.
I'll even donate my Key.
Think bigger, sponsoring a bowl cost money, owning the bowl game makes money.
So how do we start a bowl game? We need a location and I think I speak for all when I want snow for my bowl games, so some place that has access to snow machines, I'm thinking North Dakota.
Second, we need to raise some capital to bribe the NCAA, because well I don't see anything happening with out lots of bribe money.
Third, we need to think outside the box for team selection, I will suggest two winless teams because "you'll watch, it's still football, barely". I know this isnt allowed, but well bribes.
Then we can get a sponsor which means money, and then force schools to buy seats even though no one wants to go to North Dakota in the winter. Also we can force teams to buy more tickets than there are seats because no one wants this game.
Pretty sure we could do this on the cheap.
I'm thinking NORTH DAKOTA
and for that reason, I'm out.
Here is my idea for a bowl game:
London
Partner with NFL
Profit
North Dakota doesn't need snow machines.
I've always wondered why Richmond wouldn't be able to host a bowl game, lower tier, d2 or d3.
Where would they play it? Robins Stadium and Hovey Field are tiny.
So sad to find out that the local department store isn't where fashion meets football after all
We'll always have 24-0...
What's a Belk?
It's like a nice Wal Mart
A Leggett.
Why isn't there a Nascar bowl? We got a Motor City Bowl. Give us a fucking Nascar bowl.
No offense, but y'all are all wrong.
It's going to be the Cook Out Bowl.
Had to shake up this thread just a little bit.
Cook Out Bowl. At halftime, you get to watch a completely different football game that would be the main course at other bowls, but here it counts as a
sidehalftime show.While a turkey leg is my obvious preference for a halftime snack, I would be satisfied with a cookout tray as well. And I'd spend the extra dollar for the milk shake.
A Hokie of culture much like myself.
I always struggle to call thay a milk shake. More like solid block of ice cream.
Duke's Mayonnaise Bowl - sponsored by my dad with diabetes. It will take place in Atlanta because Georgia Tech is neither effective nor efficient at passing due to the fact that Drew Harris never became eligible which is why Dwayne Lawson might transfer and we'll have to switch another tight end over to QB. Danny Cole will call the game because he caught the fucking ball. At halftime there will be tequila shots poured by Cartoons Plural with Pat Narduzzi providing salt chasers. UVA will also be sponsoring a halftime brie cheese eating contest, however attendance is estimated to be low based on the number of fans at their spring football festival.
Edit: Winning team gets to choose once and for all which is better - cake or pie. If they choose pie there's a two man sack race held on consecutive Tuesdays until the winner officially chooses the obvious superior food - cake.
Needs more pie/cake.
They can take the Belk out of the Bowl but they can't take the Belk out of my heart.
Don't go Belk-ing my heart
edit: spelling
I couldn't if I tried.
Oh Honey, if I get Leg-get's
Clorox Toilet Bowl
They pick 2 of the following teams:
UVA
WVU
Pitt
Liberty
ECU
Can't wait for Popeye's to become the sponsor and have it played on a Sunday.
It would be funny if one of these sponsors gave up the sponsorship but retained the naming rights.
