It’s Bowl Season. Which means, two things: 1. Playing teams that you don’t often play against. 2. Playing in a location that you don’t often play at.

When you play in locations you are not used to, new obstacles arise – whether it be the playing surface or playing conditions – the playing challenges are plentiful.

However, its not just the team or playing field that is different, no, often the city is different and that city is often a tourist destination with plenty of distraction. Whether it is Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami, Atlanta or New Orleans, the attractions are enticing, the bars are more grand than their local college watering hole, and a week of preparation with little to do outside of normal football schedules and no class to keep them busy.
