Mac the Knife Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9208306/chick-fil-bowl-become-chick-fil-peach-bowlThanks to the CFP, the Peach Bowl can be (at least in part) the Peach Bowl again.

Kevin W. Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Excellent. If all the bowls can't be named like the Rose Bowl (Bowl Name presented by Sponsor) then do this. A sponsor name appended onto the traditional name is better than just a sponsor name. Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (CHL - 2018 Orr Cup Champions) Chicago Rivermen (UBA/WBL - 2014, 2015, 2017 Intercontinental Cup Champions) King's Own Hexham FC (BIP - 2022 Saint's Cup Champions) Portland Explorers (EFL - Elite Bowl XIX Champions) Real San Diego (UPL) Red Bull Seattle (ULL - 2018, 2019, 2020 Gait Cup Champions) Vancouver Huskies (CL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Needschat Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 People with marketing and business degrees actually had to THINK about this name. Really? Any 10-year-old football fan could have come up with the name. Oh what could have been.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Honestly it probably wouldn't have been a big deal if Chick-Fil-A hadn't shown its ass to a nation and positioned itself as The Fast Food Restaurant That Takes A Prominent Stand Against Gay Marriage. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedleyLamarr Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 While I do prefer the Peach Bowl name over the Chick-Fil-A Bowl, I never had a problem with the Chick-Fil-A Bowl name because that company has put so much money and effort into the bowl game, as well as the season-opening games, that's made Atlanta a lot of money.

Saint Zephyr III Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I'm glad they came to their senses a bit since a name like Chick-Fil-A Bowl stood out like a sore thumb amongst the classically named bowls in the rest of the rotation (Rose, Sugar, Orange, Fiesta, Cotton). Frankly, the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl just rolls off the tongue better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
