College Bowl Series - School Research

EQ –  How does a college differentiate itself to potential students?

1.      Students will partner up and select a College Bowl Series Game
a.      Rose Bowl – Wisconsin v. TCU (Texas Christian University)
b.      Sugar Bowl – Ohio State v. Arkansas
c.       BCS Championship – Auburn v. Oregon
d.      Fiesta Bowl – Oklahoma v. Connecticut
e.      Orange Bowl – Virginia Tech v. Stanford
f.        Fight Hunger Bowl – Nevada v. Boston College
g.      Cotton Bowl – Texas A&M v. LSU (Louisiana State University)

**There is an uneven number of students. One student will need to pick one of the two teams in the game**
