Governor to go bowling

Gov. Brad Henry says he is going to the Cotton Bowl to watch Oklahoma State University but is undecided about going to see his alma mater play next week in the Sun Bowl.
“We’re definitely going to the Cotton Bowl, but because of the holidays and family (being) home we don’t know if we’re going to be able to make it to both bowls,” said the state’s First Fan. “The Cotton Bowl is easier because it’s a three-hour drive; the Sun Bowl – we’ve got to get some alternative transportation.”
The University of Oklahoma tackles the University of Oregon in the Brut Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas. The contest is Dec. 31.
“I’d like to go,” said Henry, who closely follows the OU Sooners and whose two oldest daughters are students at the Norman campus, “but we just haven’t made that decision yet.”
OSU takes on the University of Mississippi in the ATT&T Cotton Bowl Classic. The game is Jan. 2.
