Cotton Bowl Classic: LSU vs Texas A&M Live Stream. Texas A&M will play Louisiana State University in the 2011 AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic on January 7, 2011. Kickoff will be at 7 p.m. CST, making this the first Cotton Bowl Classic to be played in prime time, as well as the latest calendar date for the game.
In 2010, the Cotton Bowl Classic moved to the new Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, leaving the recently remodeled historic Cotton Bowl facility. Reportedly, Cotton Bowl Classic officials sought for the game to become a BCS bowl game in 2011. (One of the concerns for this game having been the weather, since Dallas can be cold in January, but the new stadium would offer top amenities and a retractable roof.) However, a new four-year agreement between the BCS and ESPN has forestalled any possibility of the Cotton Bowl Classic joining the BCS until 2015 at the earliest.
In the 2010 Cotton Bowl Classic played between the Oklahoma State Cowboys and the Ole Miss Rebels at the new Cowboys Stadium, the Ole Miss Rebels shutdown the high scoring Cowboys offense to win the 74th annual Cotton Bowl Classic 21-7.
In 2010, the Cotton Bowl celebrates its 75th Anniversary with a new logo dedicated to the year long celebration.
