Cotton Bowl makes play to join BCS

The Dallas Cowboys’ new 80,000-seat stadium in Arlington. Texas might be just the key to unlock the Cotton Bowl’s inclusion in one of college football’s most exclusive clubs: The BCS.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones who has a special place in his heart for the Cotton Bowl after helping Arkansas win the national championship there in 1965 with a win over Nebraska hopes the bowl game that has been played since 1937 can join the BCS according to a published report.
I’ve always been bummed that the Cotton Bowl dropped down in stature after the advent of the BCS—it has much more tradition than the Fiesta. And if they’re adding another BCS game they’re one step closer to a plus-one. Which would suck for CommishRob who’s still hoping to go back to the era of split national titles and UPI handing out crowns but great for everyone else who thinks a semifinal playoff is better than the garbage we have now.
