Frozen Four NCAA Men's Ice Hockey Championship

The NCAA Men's Ice Hockey Championship refers to one of two championships in men's ice hockey contested by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) since 1971 to determine the top team in the NCAA Division I and Division III.[1] The NCAA Division II Men's Ice Hockey Championship was held from 1978 to 1982 and from 1993 to 1999, but it was discontinued due to a lack of Division II conferences sponsoring ice hockey. NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Championship NCAA Division III Men's Ice Hockey Championship The semi-finals and finals are branded as the "Frozen Four", echoing the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament's "Final Four". The final two rounds of the hockey tournament were first referred to as the Frozen Four in 1999. The NCAA started a Women's Frozen Four beginning with the 2000-01 season. The Hobey Baker Award ceremony, Hockey Humanitarian Award ceremony, and USCHO.com Town Hall Meeting take place annually during Frozen Four weekend.[2] See also List of NCAA Men's Division I Frozen Four appearances by school National Collegiate Women's Ice Hockey Championship U Sports University Cup, Canada's closest equivalent college ice hockey competition

Peach Bowl Sports Tickets Game Packages

The Peach Bowl is an annual college football bowl game played in Atlanta, Georgia since December 1968. It has been sponsored by Chick-fil-A since 1997, and is officially known as the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. From 2006 to 2013, it was officially referred to as simply the Chick-fil-A Bowl. The first three Peach Bowls were played at Grant Field on the Georgia Tech campus in Atlanta. Between 1971 and 1992, Atlanta–Fulton County Stadium hosted the game. Between 1993 and 2016, the Georgia Dome has played host. The bowl will then be moved to Mercedes-Benz Stadium after that facility opens, scheduled for mid-2017. Since the 2014 season, the Peach Bowl has featured College Football Playoff matchups, with the 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025 games hosting a national semifinal.[3] Contents 1 History 2 Statistics 3 Results 4 MVPs 5 Appearances 6 Conference records 7 See also 8 References 9 External links History Seven of the first ten meetings (all but the 1968, 1971, and 1974 games) pitted an Atlantic Coast Conference team against an at-large opponent. From 1993 until 2013, the game matched a Southeastern Conference team against one from the ACC. In 2005, the bowl hosted its first-ever matchup of top 10 ranked teams. The game was originally created as a fund-raiser by the Lions Clubs of Georgia in 1968, but after years of lackluster attendance and revenue, the game was taken over by the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce. Chick-fil-A, a fast food restaurant chain based in nearby College Park, has sponsored the game since 1997. From 2006 until 2013, Chick-fil-A's contract gave it full naming rights and the game was referred to as the Chick-fil-A Bowl as a result. The traditional "Peach Bowl" name was reinstated following the announcement that the bowl would be one of the six College Football Playoff bowls.[4][5][6] The funds from the deal were used to increase payouts for the participating teams. In response, from 2006 to 2014 the ACC gave the committee the first pick of its teams after the BCS—usually the loser of the ACC Championship Game or one of the division runners-up. Also from 2006, the bowl got the fifth overall selection from the SEC (including the BCS). However, the BCS took two SEC schools in every season for the last nine years of its run, leaving the Chick-Fil-A with the sixth pick from the conference—usually one of the division runners-up. It ascended to major-bowl status when it was added to the "New Year's Six" bowls starting with the 2014 season, assuring that it would feature major conference champions and/or prestigious runners-up. As of 2013, the bowl was sold out for 17 straight years, the second-longest streak behind only the Rose Bowl Game.[7] In 2007, the Chick-fil-A Bowl became the best-attended non-BCS bowl for the previous decade. The 2007 game was played on December 31, 2007 featuring the second Peach Bowl matchup between #15 Clemson and #21 Auburn. It was the first time the Peach Bowl had ended regulation play with a tie, and with the rules in play since the early 1990s, required an overtime, which Auburn won, 23–20.[8][9] With a 5.09 share (4.92 million households), the 2007 game was the highest-rated ESPN-broadcast bowl game of the 2007-2008 season as well as the highest rated in the game's history.[10] The rating was also higher than two New Year's Day bowls, the Cotton and the Gator.[11] In October 2009, the bowl extended the Atlantic Coast Conference contract through 2013. According to Sports Illustrated, although the bowl generated $12.3 million in profit in 2007, only $5.9 million of that was paid out to the participating schools.[12] On December 31, 2012 the bowl set new records for viewership. The New Year's Eve telecast – a 25-24 Clemson victory over LSU – averaged 8,557,000 viewers (a 5.6 household coverage rating), making it ESPN's most-viewed non-BCS bowl ever.[13][14] Statistics Ninth-oldest bowl game in college football history.[15] A then-Georgia Dome attendance record of 75,406 set in 2006 (Georgia vs. Virginia Tech).[15] 17 straight sellouts (from 1998 through 2013).[16] Highest-attended non-BCS bowl game.[17] More than $125 million in cumulative payout (through the 2013 season).[15] Results Date Played Winning Team Losing Team Notes December 30, 1968 LSU 31 No. 19 Florida State 27 notes December 30, 1969 No. 19 West Virginia 14 South Carolina 3 notes December 30, 1970 No. 8 Arizona State 48 North Carolina 26 notes December 30, 1971 No. 17 Mississippi 41 Georgia Tech 18 notes December 29, 1972 NC State 49 No. 18 West Virginia 13 notes December 28, 1973 Georgia 17 No. 18 Maryland 16 notes December 28, 1974 Texas Tech 6 Vanderbilt 6 notes December 31, 1975 West Virginia 13 NC State 10 notes December 31, 1976 Kentucky 21 No. 19 North Carolina 0 notes December 31, 1977 NC State 24 Iowa State 14 notes December 25, 1978 No. 17 Purdue 41 Georgia Tech 21 notes December 31, 1979 No. 19 Baylor 24 No. 18 Clemson 18 notes January 2, 1981 No. 20 Miami (FL) 20 Virginia Tech 10 notes December 31, 1981 West Virginia 26 Florida 6 notes December 31, 1982 Iowa 28 Tennessee 22 notes December 30, 1983 Florida State 28 North Carolina 3 notes December 31, 1984 Virginia 27 Purdue 24 notes December 31, 1985 Army 31 Illinois 29 notes December 31, 1986 Virginia Tech 25 #18 NC State 24 notes January 2, 1988 No. 17 Tennessee 27 Indiana 22 notes December 31, 1988 NC State 28 Iowa 23 notes December 30, 1989 Syracuse 19 Georgia 18 notes December 29, 1990 Auburn 27 Indiana 23 notes January 1, 1992 No. 12 East Carolina 37 No. 21 NC State 34 notes January 2, 1993 No. 19 North Carolina 21 No. 24 Mississippi State 17 notes December 31, 1993 No. 24 Clemson 14 Kentucky 13 notes January 1, 1995 No. 23 NC State 28 No. 16 Mississippi State 24 notes December 30, 1995 No. 18 Virginia 34 Georgia 27 notes December 28, 1996 No. 17 LSU 10 Clemson 7 notes January 2, 1998 No. 13 Auburn 21 Clemson 17 notes December 31, 1998 No. 19 Georgia 35 No. 13 Virginia 33 notes December 30, 1999 No. 15 Mississippi State 17 Clemson 7 notes December 29, 2000 LSU 28 #15 Georgia Tech 14 notes December 31, 2001 North Carolina 16 Auburn 10 notes December 31, 2002 No. 20 Maryland 30 Tennessee 3 notes January 2, 2004 Clemson 27 No. 6 Tennessee 14 notes December 31, 2004 No. 14 Miami (FL) 27 No. 20 Florida 10 notes December 30, 2005 No. 10 LSU 40 No. 9 Miami (FL) 3 notes December 30, 2006 Georgia 31 No. 14 Virginia Tech 24 notes December 31, 2007 No. 22 Auburn 23 No. 15 Clemson 20 (OT) notes December 31, 2008 LSU 38 No. 14 Georgia Tech 3 notes December 31, 2009 No. 12 Virginia Tech 37 Tennessee 14 notes December 31, 2010 No. 23 Florida State 26 No. 19 South Carolina 17 notes December 31, 2011 Auburn 43 Virginia 24 notes December 31, 2012 No. 14 Clemson 25 No. 9 LSU 24 notes December 31, 2013 No. 20 Texas A&M 52 No. 22 Duke 48 notes December 31, 2014 No. 6 TCU 42 No. 9 Mississippi 3 notes December 31, 2015 No. 14 Houston 38 No. 9 Florida State 24 notes December 31, 2016 No. 1 Alabama 24 No. 4 Washington 7 notes MVPs Date played MVP(s) Team Position December 30, 1968 Mike Hillman LSU QB Buddy Millican LSU DE December 30, 1969 Ed Williams West Virginia FB Carl Crennel West Virginia MG December 30, 1970 Monroe Eley Arizona State HB Junior Ah You Arizona State DE December 30, 1971 Norris Weese Mississippi QB Crowell Armstrong Mississippi LB December 29, 1972 Dave Buckey North Carolina State QB George Bell North Carolina State DT December 28, 1973 Louis Carter Maryland TB Sylvester Boler Georgia LB December 28, 1974 Larry Isaac Texas Tech TB Dennis Harrison Vanderbilt DB December 31, 1975 Dan Kendra West Virginia QB Ray Marshall West Virginia LB December 31, 1976 Rod Stewart Kentucky TB Mike Martin Kentucky LB December 31, 1977 Johnny Evans North Carolina State QB Richard Carter North Carolina State DB December 25, 1978 Mark Herrmann Purdue QB Calvin Clark Purdue DT December 31, 1979 Mike Brannan Baylor QB Andrew Melontree Baylor DE January 2, 1981 Jim Kelly Miami (Fla.)

PlayStation Fiesta Bow Playoff SemiFinals

The Fiesta Bowl is an American college football bowl game played annually at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Between its origination in 1971 and 2006, the game was hosted in Tempe, Arizona at Sun Devil Stadium. As of November 2016, it is sponsored by PlayStation.[3] From 1996 through the January 2014 game, Frito-Lay was the bowl's title sponsor through its Tostitos tortilla chip brand. It was most recently sponsored by BattleFrog, creators of the obstacle racing series featured in the ESPN program BattleFrog College Championship for the January 2016 game and Vizio for the December 2014 game.[4][5][6] Other previous sponsors include Sunkist and IBM. In 1998, the Fiesta Bowl became part of the Bowl Championship Series (BCS), and before 2006 every four years (most recently in 2010) was the designee for the national championship game. Beginning with the 2014 season, Fiesta Bowl became a member of College Football Playoff, hosting a semifinal game every three years, and all the teams playing in this bowl will be selected by the CFP Selection Committee.

(April 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) Origins (1968–1971) The current generic Fiesta Bowl logo (with no corporate sponsor logo attached). The Fiesta Bowl was born from the Western Athletic Conference's frustrated attempts to obtain bowl invitations for its champions. In 1968 and 1969 respectively, champions Wyoming and Arizona State failed to secure any bowl selection. The next year, undefeated Arizona State was bypassed by the major bowls and had to settle for an appearance in the less prestigious Peach Bowl. The Fiesta Bowl therefore initially provided an automatic berth for the WAC champion. 1970s In its first decade of existence, the Fiesta Bowl was played in the last week of December (including the afternoon of Christmas Day from 1976 to 1979). The 1971 inaugural game featured another top-ten Arizona State squad against top-twenty opponent Florida State. The 1974 game featured WAC champ BYU and their new coach, future Hall of Fame member Lavell Edwards in their first ever bowl game vs. Oklahoma State. BYU was in control until BYU's first All-American quarterback Gary Sheide went down with a leg injury and eventually lost 16–6. By 1975, the game was able to attract Big Eight co-champion Nebraska to play undefeated Arizona State in a matchup of top-five teams. In 1977, the game was again able to attract a top-five opponent in Penn State, despite WAC champion #16 BYU refusing to play in the bowl due to its being held on Sunday. In 1978, Arizona and Arizona State both joined the Pac-10 Conference and the Fiesta Bowl's tie-in with the WAC ended. 1980s The game continued to attract high quality matchups, so beginning with the 1981 game the Fiesta Bowl shifted to New Year's Day alongside the major bowl games—the Cotton, Orange, Sugar, and Rose. The Fiesta Bowl was the first bowl game to acquire a title sponsor when it became the Sunkist Fiesta Bowl starting with the 1986 game. A major breakthrough occurred after the 1986 season when the top two teams in the country, Miami and Penn State, agreed to play for the de facto national championship in the Fiesta Bowl. At the time, the traditional four "major" bowl games granted automatic bids to their conference champions. Both Miami and Penn State were independents at that time, and were thus free to choose a bowl. As such, the Fiesta Bowl and the Florida Citrus Bowl, each free from the obligation of conference tie-ins, vied to host the Miami–Penn State matchup in order to ensure that they would meet on the field. The Fiesta Bowl won the bidding and the game was set to be played on January 2, 1987—a day after the "big four" bowls. Penn State won 14–10 over Miami, and the game drew the largest television audience in the history of college football at the time. Two years later, #1 Notre Dame played undefeated #3 West Virginia for the national championship at the 1989 Fiesta Bowl. The 1987 and 1989 games were two of four straight matchups of teams ranked in the AP Top 10 going into the bowl season to close out the 1980s. This significantly increased the Fiesta Bowl's prestige, to the point that it was now considered a major bowl by many fans and pundits. 1990s Before the 1991 game, several major universities declined invitations due to the State of Arizona's decision at that time not to adopt the Martin Luther King Holiday. However, in 1992, the Fiesta Bowl was invited to participate in the Bowl Coalition, a predecessor to the Bowl Championship Series. This assured the game would feature major conference champions or prestigious runners-up and cemented its status as a major bowl. When the Bowl Coalition was reconfigured as the Bowl Alliance, the Fiesta was included as one of the three top games. In 1996, it hosted the Bowl Alliance National Championship game featuring undefeated #1 Nebraska playing undefeated #2 Florida for the National Championship. Nebraska won the game 62–24, the largest win margin in the history of the national championship game, and the most points ever scored in a national championship game. Finally, with the addition of the Big Ten and Pac-10 conferences to the new Bowl Championship Series, the Fiesta Bowl became a permanent fixture in the four-year BCS National Championship Game rotation. In 1998, the Fiesta Bowl featured the first BCS National Championship Game, which Tennessee won over Florida State, 23 to 16. Starting with the 1999 season, the Fiesta Bowl began hosting the Big 12 Conference champion in years when it was not slated as the BCS title game, an arrangement that continued to the end of the BCS era. 2000s 2006 Fiesta Bowl, the last Fiesta Bowl game in Sun Devil Stadium In 2002, the Fiesta Bowl had the right to take the Pac-10 Conference Champion, should that team not reach the Rose Bowl, which served as the National Championship game that season. Oregon failed to qualify for the championship game, and thus played Colorado in the Fiesta Bowl. A similar arrangement was made for the 2006 Fiesta Bowl. However, instead of gaining the Pac-10 Conference champion in addition to their usual tie-in with the Big 12, the Fiesta Bowl would have had a choice of the two teams. This turned out to be a moot point as both the Big 12 champion Texas and Pac-10 champion Southern California qualified for the National Championship Game (USC's participation has since been vacated).[7] 2007 Fiesta Bowl, Boise State vs. Oklahoma; January 1, 2007, the first Fiesta Bowl at University of Phoenix Stadium The BCS National Championship game returned to the Fiesta Bowl in 2003 with the Big Ten champions Ohio State Buckeyes beating the Big East champions Miami Hurricanes in the first overtime national championship game. The game went into double overtime with the Buckeyes coming out on top 31–24 to claim the 2002 National Championship. The Fiesta Bowl was the first BCS bowl to have had an entry from outside the parameters of the BCS (the Big 12, Big Ten, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), Southeastern Conference (SEC), Pac-10, Big East, and Notre Dame had tie-ins, while all of the other conferences did not). The 2005 game saw undefeated Utah from the Mountain West Conference become the first non-BCS school ever to play in a BCS game, easily defeating Big East champion Pittsburgh 35–7. In 2007, the Fiesta Bowl game was played for the first time at the new University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, across the Phoenix metropolitan area from Sun Devil Stadium. The undefeated Boise State Broncos won by defeating the Oklahoma Sooners 43–42 in overtime. It has been called one of the greatest college football games ever played, due to the combination of an underdog team, trick plays, comebacks by each team, and a thrilling overtime finish.[8] 2010s The 2010 Fiesta Bowl featured #6 Boise State defeating #4 TCU, 17-10. It was the first time a BCS bowl matched-up two non-automatic qualifying teams (i.e. two teams from conferences without automatic BCS bids) and the first time that two teams who went undefeated faced each other in a BCS game outside of the National Championship. In the 2011 Fiesta Bowl, Oklahoma State defeated Stanford 41–38. Notable players included Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon for Oklahoma State, and Andrew Luck for Stanford. The December 2016 Fiesta Bowl will serve as a semifinal for the College Football Playoff. The Fiesta Bowl will host a semifinal, alongside the Peach Bowl, again in 2019, 2022, and 2025. In November 2016, PlayStation was announced as the bowl's new title sponsor.[3] Controversies Invitations In 1996, a group of students from Brigham Young University, led by BYU professor Dennis Martin, burned bags of Tostitos tortilla chips in a bonfire and called for a boycott of all Tostitos products.[9] This came after #5 ranked BYU was not invited to play in the 1996 Fiesta Bowl in favor of #7 ranked Penn State. This event is one of those referred to by proponents of college football implementing a playoff series rather than the controversial Bowl Alliance. Penn State went on to win the game over #20 Texas 38–15, while BYU defeated #14 Kansas State in the Cotton Bowl Classic 19–15.[10] For the 2010 Fiesta Bowl, the selections of TCU and Boise State caused a great deal of controversy. For the first and only time in the BCS era, two "non-BCS" or "non-AQ" teams were chosen to play in BCS bowls in the same bowl season: however, they ended up facing each other in this bowl. Because both non-AQ teams were placed in the same bowl game, the bowl was derisively referred to as the "Separate But Equal Bowl",[11] the "Quarantine Bowl", the "Fiasco Bowl", the "BCS Kids' Table",[12] etc. Some had called for a boycott because of this.[13] There was wide speculation that the BCS bowl selection committees maneuvered TCU and Boise State into the same bowl so as to deny them the chances to "embarrass" two AQ conference representatives in separate bowls, as Boise State had done in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl and Utah had done in the 2005 Fiesta Bowl and 2009 Sugar Bowl (prior to the game, non-AQ teams were 3–1 versus AQ teams in BCS bowls).[12][14] In response, Fiesta Bowl CEO John Junker called those allegations "the biggest load of crap that I've ever heard in my life" and said that "We're in the business of doing things that are on behalf of our bowl game and we don't do the bidding of someone else to our detriment."[15] Beyond the unappealing nature of a "David vs. David" contest which resulted from this pairing in a major bowl, the appeal was further diminished due to the fact that it was a rematch of the Poinsettia Bowl from the previous bowl season. Financial scandals In 2009, in the weeks prior to the 2010 Fiesta Bowl, past and present Fiesta Bowl employees alleged that they were encouraged to help maintain its position as one of the four BCS bowls by making campaign contributions to politicians friendly to the Fiesta Bowl, with those contributions subsequently reimbursed to the employees. If true, this would be a violation of both state and federal campaign finance laws.[16] Furthermore, as a non-profit organization, the Fiesta Bowl is prohibited from making political contributions of any kind.[17] The Fiesta Bowl commissioned an "independent review" which found "no credible evidence that the bowl's management engaged in any type of illegal or unethical conduct."[18] The following year, in a November 2010 article, Sports Illustrated reported that Fiesta Bowl officials, including bowl CEO John Junker, spent $4 million since 2000 to curry favor from BCS bigwigs and elected officials, including a 2008 "Fiesta Frolic", a golf-centered gathering of athletic directors and head coaches. The journal also reported that Junker's annual salary was close to $600,000 and that the bowl, in 2007 turned an $11.6 million profit.[19] While these alleged activities are not illegal, they did result in considerable damage to the reputation of the Fiesta Bowl. On March 29, 2011, the Fiesta Bowl Board of Directors released a 276-page "scathing internal report", commissioned by them to re-examine the accusations of illegal political activities.[20] The commission determined that $46,539 of illegal campaign contributions were made and the board immediately fired Fiesta Bowl CEO John Junker, who had already been suspended pending the results of this investigation.[21] The scandal threatened the Fiesta Bowl's status as a BCS game, as the BCS said it might replace the bowl in its lineup if officials could not convince them it should remain.[22][23] The BCS ultimately chose not to expel the Fiesta Bowl, instead fining the organization $1 million. In June 2011 University of Arizona president Robert Shelton was hired to replace Junker.[24] On February 22, 2012, former CEO John Junker pleaded guilty to a federal felony charge in the campaign financing matter, and two members of his former staff pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges.[25] Junker was to be sentenced soon after, facing up to 2.5 years in prison as the result of his plea, but as of January 2014 his sentencing has been repeatedly postponed in return for cooperation in other cases.[26][27] In March 2014, Junker was sentenced to eight months in prison, with the sentence starting on June 13, 2014;[28] he was released on February 11, 2015.[29] On March 20, 2014, Junker was sentenced to three years of probation on state charges.[30] Broadcasting See also: Fiesta Bowl broadcasters As of the 2010–11 season, the game along with the rest of the BCS, exclusively airs on ESPN.[31] From 2007 through 2010, Fox telecast the game along with the other BCS games – the Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl, and BCS National Championship Game from 2006 though 2009, while only the Rose Bowl and the 2010 BCS National Championship Game aired on ABC in that period. From 1999 to 2006, the game aired on ABC as part of the first BCS package, and from 1996 to 1998 the game aired on CBS as part of its bowl coverage. Prior to that, NBC aired the game for several years. This game, along with the Orange Bowl, is one of only two bowl games ever to air on all the "Big 4" broadcast television networks in the United States. ESPN Radio is the current radio home for the Fiesta Bowl. In 2013, ESPN Deportes provided the first Spanish U.S. telecast of the Fiesta Bowl.[32] Parade In addition to the game, the annual Bank of Arizona Fiesta Bowl Parade takes place in downtown Phoenix, which includes marching bands from high schools as well as the two universities participating in the Fiesta Bowl and the two universities participating in the Cactus Bowl, along with floats, equestrian units, and a seven-member queen and court. It started back in 1973. Past Grand Marshals include many celebrities from sports and entertainment. Game results Italics denote a tie game.

Super Bowl Packages for Atlanta Fans

Super Bowl Travel Packages
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Clinton_Bennett/210291]Clinton Bennett

So you want to know who's going to win Super Bowl XLV, eh?

Well, before we know who's going to win it all... we have to know who's going first.

The big issue is that we haven't even started playing a down of football but that doesn't mean that we can't start talking about who has a shot at making it to the big dance.

In the battle between the AFC vs. the NFC, there's a number of good teams on both sides but only one gets to play for a championship and determining who that team is, is always a difficult task, especially so early in the year. However, there are a few teams that are sure to have the greatest chance at making it all the way.

To find out who they are, read-on.

AFC

Indianapolis Colts - The NFL's good boy's are always good picks too! The Colts are the darling's of the NFL but don't mistake their goodness for weakness - Indianapolis will be tough. Even with Tony Dungy out as the head coach, the Colts still made it to the Super Bowl last year.

San Diego Chargers - In spite of a passionate yet aging and struggling Ladainian Tomlinson out, head coach Norv Turner says that this year's Chargers might be the best team that he's ever coached. His optimism is infectious so we'll agree with him.

Baltimore Ravens - Vegas has been good to Baltimore, predicting the Ravens as low-risk and high-powered for gamblers - we tend to agree. Baltimore has always been rock solid on defense and you know what they say about defenses.

New England Patriots - Can you ever count out the Pats given all they have done in this decade? New England won the East in 2009 and we don't see that changing any time soon.

NFC

New Orleans Saints - A lot of analysts are counting out the Saints this year, predicting a Sophomore slump after riding the high of an emotional run in last year's campaign. In light of that, we can't imagine not including a team with such fire power in the conversation.

Dallas Cowboys - Super Bowl XLV is coming to Dallas in 2011 and the Cowboys have a real shot at becoming the first team to play a Super Bowl in their home stadium. With a star-studded program and a newly focused QB, the big D could stand for something else - dangerous! Fans wanting to catch a glimpse of the greatest show on turf should grab a [http://www.squidoo.com/dallas-cowboys-travel-packages]Dallas Cowboys Travel Package while they're available.

Green Bay Packers - It's hard to bet against a team like Green Bay. With the exodus of Brett Favre and the emergence of a QB named Aaron Rodgers - football fans nationwide weren't sure of what to think about them. In the last several years under Rodgers lead, the Packers have looked more explosive than ever.

Minnesota Vikings - Speaking of Brett Favre, after destroying the Cowboys in last season's playoffs it's impossible to write off the Vikings just yet. Last year saw an offense that made plays and a relentless defense that just wouldn't quit. The success of this team is dependent on whether or not Favre returns as its quarterback.

So, who of these great teams will have the best shot at making it?

I see it as a Dallas vs. San Diego match up in Super Bowl XLV. Dallas will have to survive a treacherous schedule, one of the toughest in the league and if they make it all the way to the Super Bowl, they will have earned it. The Chargers dropped LT and are actually claiming to be stronger than ever, this makes them dangerous.

We'll reserve final predictions for a later date but it would sure be tough to bet against the Cowboys at home, wouldn't it?

Over 100,000 fans are going to cram Cowboys Stadium on February 6, 2011. Will you be one of them?

Purchase a Super Bowl Travel Package [http://www.cowboyspackages.com/super-bowl-xlv-travel-packages] from Cowboys Packages today and we'll get you set up for the ULTIMATE Super Bowl weekend experience.

Super Bowl Hotel Packages: Get Ready for the Party of the Year!
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Stuart_Moore/1080476]Stuart Moore

The most exciting of all sports events, the Super Bowl will be held in Indianapolis (Indiana) on February 5th 2012. The event is one of the grandest and most watched events of the entire sporting world. Because of this, the rush for tickets and hotels has already started.

The internet is crammed with offers for hotel packages and tickets to suit all tastes and wallets.

There are many hotels and inns offering attractive packages for accommodation in south-east Indianapolis. These packages include, among other things, a reserved upper level End zone Super Bowl tickets, cocktail parties on the day of the game with former NFL champions, roundtrip deluxe motor coach transfers to the stadium, shuttle service from the hotel to downtown Indianapolis, official Super Bowl XLVI Souvenirs and daily hot breakfast at the hotel.

To make these hotel offers more attractive, some hotels are offering attractions like visits to the huge Greenwood Park Mall, art and children's museums, the zoo, spa treatments and organizing activities like boating and fishing, to keep the full family entertained.

A typical hotel package will include the following:

1. Super Bowl Tickets: A hotel reservation at the heart of the sporting action, but without tickets would be meaningless. So, every hotel package will include tickets which can be upgraded as the customer desires.

2. Accommodation: Searching for accommodation in Indianapolis at this time of the year would be a nightmare. The hotels provide comfortable accommodation. The rates will generally depend on the distance from the stadium.

3. Pre-game parties: These are a major attraction of the Hotel Packages. These parties include a premium bar and often a NFL hall of fame guest speaker.

4. Transportation: Most Tickets come with free transportation between the stadium and the hotel.

5. Concierge Assistant: The hotel concierge assistant is constantly with the guest to guide him through the sports event.

There are many websites which offer only Super Bowl tickets. Some claim to offer "the most comprehensive inventory of XLVI tickets on the secondary ticket market". Since they are constantly buying new tickets, they can provide any kind of ticket. Groups and corporate accounts are also welcome.
The available tickets range from the cheapest "Terrace Level Endzone" for $2829, to the "Loge Level Endzone" for $3919 and the most expensive "Street Level 25yd Line to 50yd Line" for $9260.

But since not everybody is willing to fork out such impressive amounts of money, it is possible to find better deals on the internet through the Super Bowl hotel packages.

An overview of the 2012 Indianapolis Super Bowl hotel [http://www.superhotelsbowl.com/super_bowl_hotels.html] and Super Bowl ticket/package [http://www.superhotelsbowl.com/] offers available on line for all tastes and wallets, from four star hotels to cheap motel chains.

Kentucky Derby Party Planning By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Jennifer_Withrow/270284]Jennifer Withrow In Kentucky and around the world, the Kentucky Derby is enjoyed by millions. If you are able to be in Louisville for "the greatest two minutes in sports," there's a lot of activity and excitement. If you can't be here with us, we invite you to enjoy the Kentucky Derby with the traditional local fare and great Kentucky Derby party ideas. Whether this is your first Derby or you are a seasoned professional, we'd like to help give your Kentucky Derby party a real Kentucky flavor and offer our suggestions for Kentucky food, fun, and friends. Planning Your Kentucky Derby Party Menu The menu is the most creative part of the Kentucky Derby party planning. In order to ease the last minute workload, plan ahead and choose Kentucky food that can be frozen or refrigerated a day or more ahead. Buffet serving seems most popular during the week of the Kentucky Derby, as it is an easy way to entertain the maximum number of friends with a minimum of space and help. There is the traditional buffet supper where guests serve themselves and dine throughout the home, and the 'seated' buffet supper, at which guests serve themselves and eat at set tables. For the Kentucky food, we recommend: Appetizers: Kentucky Dill Mix served in a hollowed-out bread round Pop's Pepper Jelly served with cream cheese on crackers Main Course: Uncle John's Ribs Kentucky Burgoo Kentucky Hot Browns BBQ Beef, Pork or Chicken Country Ham and Beaten Biscuits Sour Mash Kentucky Bourbon Bread Desserts: Derby Pie Kentucky Bourbon Candies Mom Blakeman's Pulled Candy Bauer's Modjeskas Beverages: Mint Juleps Kentucky Bourbon Ale-8-One Sweetened Iced Tea Planning your Kentucky Derby Party Decorating Greet your guests with Mint Juleps. Use sterling silver for dinner or buffet. Decorate tables with red roses. Use the color red whenever possible to accent your party. Use horse shoe shaped molds. Place a large horse sculpture in the center of the table and garnish with greenery and roses. If entertaining informally, use signs to decorate your home. Tape a sign on the closet door marked Paddock, on the bar marked Watering Hold, on the kitchen door marked Infield, the dining are as the Clubhouse and the television room as the Grandstand. Restroom doors might be marked as Studs and Mares. A Derby Parking Only sign is perfect for the driveway or out by the street. We hope these tips will help make your Kentucky Derby Party a success. http://www.atasteofkentucky.com You'll search far and wide before you find another place where the past and the present coexist so delightfully. But there's no need to search further than A Taste of Kentucky for unique Kentucky made or inspired gifts, Kentucky foods, Kentucky crafts and delightful gift baskets. A Country Classic.

The Experts Are Wrong About How to Pick the Kentucky Derby Winner - 7 Winners in 12 Years
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Prentice_Mannetter/316491]Prentice Mannetter

Now if that doesn't get you excited for the first Saturday in May, I don't know what will!

I'd like to share a method of picking the Kentucky Derby Winner with you that has worked incredibly well. It's so easy even a complete beginner can pick the most likely winner in less than 5 minutes. This simple 6 step process has picked the Kentucky Derby winner 7 out of the last 12 years using only 1-2 horses.

Every horse racing fan has a theory on how to pick the Kentucky Derby winner. But if it doesn't take foundation and current performance into account, it will eventually fail. There are some notable examples in this group. The Dual qualifier method has lost 10 out of the last 11 years but had picked the Kentucky Derby winner 20 out of the previous 23 years. Silly rules like no gelding has ever won the Derby (until Funny Cide), no 2 year old Breeders Cup winner has ever won the Derby (until Street Sense) all eventually fail too.

The dosage theory still works pretty well, but almost all the horses qualify which doesn't help you in deciding who to bet. Plus you would have missed longshot horses like Giacomo, Real Quiet and Charismatic.

To help you out and put you on the right track I'd like to present you with some guidelines based on foundation and current performance that have worked well enough to pick the Kentucky Derby winner 7 out of the last 12 years.

I've listed the 6 step process below. Please note that this article was written a couple weeks before the Derby so not all the necessary information was available;

Step 1) Eliminate any horse that hasn't run one of its 2 highest lifetime speed ratings in its last 2 races.
A horse has to be in top form to win the Derby. You'll see many horses over bet in the Derby because they were stars at age 2 but have not developed further. Last years example was Pyro who was very over bet in the Derby because of his previous years races. 

This year it doesn't look like there will be any over bet horses based on 2 year old performance but this step would eliminate a horse like General Quarters.

Step 2) Eliminate any horse that hasn't run 2 races prior to December 1st of the previous year (some people prefer to use 1 race). These are still good horses to use in exotic bets.

This step almost falls under the category of a silly rule but the last horse to win the Kentucky Derby without racing at age 2 was Apollo in 1882. With the direction racing is going this may change soon though so tread lightly with this step.

There have been quite a few low odds horses recently that have been eliminated by this rule. These include Congaree (3rd), Empire Maker (2nd), Bellamy Road (out) and Curlin (3rd). There are two highly regarded contenders this year that would be eliminated by this rule, Quality Road and Dunkirk.

Step 3) Eliminate any horse that has not run in the last 45 days.

The Kentucky Derby is a brutal race for young horses. They're facing the toughest field of competitors they've ever run against at a distance that's longer than they've ever run.

If the horse hasn't raced in more than 45 prior to the Derby it's not by design, it's because something was wrong for the horse and conditioning will be a question.

A top contender this year that would be eliminated by this rule is Friesan Fire.

Step 4) Of the remaining horses, rank the horses highest to lowest based on their 2nd highest lifetime speed rating (as opposed to the horses top speed rating)

Many times a horse will pop one really good race right before the Derby. Usually this happens because the horse ran over a biased track or the trainer had the horse ready to run a peak race prior to the Derby to get enough earnings to qualify for the race.

The media and experts will be going gaga over these one hit wonder horses. But the lone huge race typically takes so much out of the horse that it rarely even finishes in the money in the Kentucky Derby. The horse lacks the necessary foundation.

Cliff's Edge, Bellamy Road and Sinister Minister are some of the more recent low odds horses that have fell victim to this.

Step 5) The contenders to win the Kentucky Derby are the top 2 highest rated horses based on step #4 and those within 1 point of the second ranked horse.

Step 6) If there are only 2 horses left, those are your win bets. If there are more than two horses left, bet the horses with the highest speed figure last race. If still tied bet the horse with the highest lifetime speed figure.

Or better yet, simply bet the qualifying horses going off at the highest odds to win and key them in the exotic bets. This is the most profitable long term approach.

Notable longshot Kentucky Derby winners using this method include Real Quiet, Monarchos,, War Emblem, Funny Cide and Barbaroo along with some favorites.

Last year Eight Belles was the top rated qualifier by 4 points using Beyer speed figures (Big Brown was eliminated because he only had one race before December of the previous year). I received happy e-mails from many who boxed Big Brown to Eight Belles for an easy exact.

This year's highest rated qualifier will be the likely Kentucky Derby favorite, I Want Revenge. He qualifies on all 6 rules and has outstanding speed figures and late pace ratings in his last two races. I prefer to play longshots but if I Want Revenge looks good on Derby day, I'll take 3-1 odds and be happy with my choice.

The only possible concern is that Jeff Mullins was caught in the detention barn on Wood Memorial day with a legal medication. Problem is; every trainer and owner knows you're not allowed to bring anything into the detention barn. Mullins knew this too. He already has a long list of violations so perhaps he was playing games and doing something he shouldn't have, but then again maybe not. We'll never know and he's probably not too worried. He won't face any possible suspension until after the Triple Crown races and then it will be a "paid vacation" as his stable continues to operate.

I hope this article has given you a good foundation on how to find the winner of the Kentucky Derby. Although I've done extremely well overall in the Derby using the 6 rules above as my foundation, horse racing constantly changes and as horse players we have to change with it.
