Geocache Description:


This puzzle geocache is in conjunction with the Happy New Year 2023 event by Skyhawk63.  The container is NOT at the Final location, you must first solve a short puzzle to get the coordinates.  Tha Final container is a log-only geopop in a LPS.  BYOP and some tweezers.  Good Luck!!

 

One activity that New Year's Day is associated with is college football.  Historically, important bowl games have been played on January 1.  This has changed somewhat with the College Football Playoffs to determine a national championship.  There are still an abundance of bowl games to watch, however.  This puzzle has to do with the participants in some defunct and maybe unheard of bowl games.  Should be quick and easy.
