Frogs
should hop for Mobile Bowl
Mobile, Ala. in December is cold, wet and just plain miserable.
Those who made the trip and witnessed the subsequent loss
to Southern Miss in the Mobile Bowl in 2000 remember how
uninviting the city can be. The stadium is a glorified
high school stadium, and the city offers little in entertainment
value. |
