All I can say is one or 2 games in the year to east coast, maybe 3 on how much i like florida, and most around south. I probably wont ever venture to boise state.

Boise is a great little town that I really enjoyed traveling to in the WAC days.

Truth. Love it though. Can we grab a school in Cabo to complete our vacation choices?

I think DC/Annapolis will make a great fall football excursion (went to DC for my fall break this year anyway)
Tampa is a beautiful town so hopefully USF will be a nice game day experience
Go to Harry Potter World and UCF
Chicago in the winter is rough, but it's my favorite big city, so go up and watch one of our few possible bb wins at DePaul

Also the aforementioned skiing destinations. I sure hope we can pull in BYU - that'd be a real coup and make up for the so-called "'Eers" leaving - cause I sure love the snow in Utah
