Keady said that the big issue centers around a suggestion from pro-minded Dallas residents that the "Super Bowl" game between the American and National football league champions be played in the Cotton Bowl. He said another reason for a Cotton-Bluebonnet merger is that both bowls need a Southwest Conference team to provide ticket-selling appeal.
