sorry for another poll about this subject, but I wanted to get feedback on which is more important to you. I think we all agree that playing a mid-major is less desirable, and that the Fiesta is more desirable than the Peach. But which "evil" is the worst? Atlanta or an AAC opponent?
 
I'll go first. I'm not 100% but I think the opponent trumps location as far as "worseness", so I voted for AAC Fiesta matchup. However, my family would much rather take a vacation to PHX and do some hiking in the mountains ;-)
 
Agree. Opponent trumps location. I like being the hunted, not the hunter. Makes a win that much better.
 
Fiesta = Peach now, because they're equal level NY6 bowls. or are you just saying Phx>ATL? I can drive to ATL, so I'd take that, but give me the matchup w/ND every time. Temple/FSU doesn't matter, give me a win.
 
I think it's hard for Hawk fans to view the Peach as equal to Fiesta, PHX is way better than ATL in Decemeber, and I imagine the Georgia Dome is not near as nice as University of Pheonix Staidum. Now if we're having this discussion a few years from now and the Falcon's new stadium was the home of the Peach Bowl it may be another story. This place looks to be nice...
