Cotton Bowl: On Location With Bo Marchionte
Sitting in the host hotel and working on a piece about LSU Tigers’ junior defensive Patrick Peterson, I heard a knock on the door saying, ‘Housekeeping.’ At first I thought I was reliving the scene from the movie Tommy Boy. Upon opening the door I was greeted by a cart loaded with fancy nuts, sleeves of chocolates truffles and white chocolate poker-shaped tokens with the Cotton Bowl logo stamped on them, compliments of the Cotton Bowl itself. When I closed the door, it occurred to me that America might be missing this Lone Star State classic. Overlooked perhaps, it seems the Cotton Bowl no longer captivates our attention. So much so that last year I had to argue with a friend as he told me that it no longer existed, which made me laugh and reply, “I guess my flight to Texas leads to nowhere.” It hit me

ATHENS–University of Georgia offensive tackle Trinton Sturdivant will remain at UGA for his senior season according to a statement from the Wadesboro, N.C., junior on Friday.
<br “I have decided to stay in school because I love the coaches, I love the facilities and I love Georgia,” said Sturdivant. “I came to Georgia with high aspirations and was a part of a team that immediately won a Sugar Bowl and was ranked No. 2 in the nation at the end of the season.
