BOWLS
Ordinarily, when you think about going to a bowl, you think about going to that blue and white bowl in which you put your breakfast cereal. But not today. We are thinking about what bowls college football teams are going to. First it was the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. Now its bowls, bowls everywhere. Some 32, from the Poinsettia Bowl on Dec 20 to the BCS Championship Bowl on Jan. 7. Although KU didn't make the championship bowl, it got the next best thing, in playing No. 3 VA Tech in the Orange Bowl on Jan 3 at 7 pm. Interestingly, KU's two previous major bowl games were at the Orange Bowl: after the 1947 season and after the 1968 season. In those two seasons, KU was co-champion in its league (the Big 6 and the Big 8).
