EXCELLENT!! I heard both of these games sold out in August!

This is just what New Orleans needs... wish I could be there!

Now for the real question:

Do Ohio State and LSU deserve to be in the BCS Championship Game?

I think it's as good as it gets this year. What a wacky season for the Top 10!

I don't know if they deserve to be there...that's for Skip Bayliss to whine incessantly about. I just know that I would rather watch that match-up than any other.

Hawaii vs. Georgia won't be half bad, either. Colt Brennan, indoors...should be fun.

Anybody in New Orleans right now?
Rachel?

What's NYE lookin like in the Big Easy?????
Someone take some pics!

New Orleans is a HAPPEN place! Wow NYE is going to rock on Decatur today! There will be a free live concert starting at 10 pm with Freddy Omar and New Orleans very own Kermit Ruffins will be closing out 2007. Come watch the Gumbo Bowl Drop!
If you don't have a place to be, get down to Decatur Street- Fan Fest is taking place right now at Jax Brewery Parking lot all day long with free concerts and fun things to do. FREE and open to the public, thanks All State for giving something back to the city with the 2 day celebration. Fun football throwing contest, see a NASCAR and all kinds of things.
You don't have to cheer for Hawii or Georgia or even be a football fan to have fun in the French Quarter!
But I have to say WOW and Aloha to all of the Hawaii fans who made it down! RIGHT ON!

Awesome!

Thanks for the update... wish I was there!!!!!

So much for Hawaii/Georgia being a good game, eh? Unless you're a Bulldog fan.

Hopefully the BCS Championship is a little more competitive.
