The NCAA certification of the Aloha Bowl Christmas Classics yesterday at bowl meetings in Tampa, Fla., throws a lifeline to the Western Athletic Conference. They're going to take our second team for one of those two games, and we couldn't be happier for it. Bowl Games of Hawaii won approval for a second game that at this point doesn't have a name. Which teams play in which game will be determined after the regular season is over. We may name it Aloha Bowl2 and call it the deuce like ESPN does.
Tickets go on sale today.
Klompus said the 18,000 annual season-ticket holders will have the right to keep their seats. The mailers will go out by Memorial Day. We had to make several presentations over a two-day period, but it was worth it. We're making history having the first doubleheader and Hawaii is a big part of it. All Star all four seasons.
