I was at the Orange Bowl last year. We got tickets early and they ended up being on StubHub much closer to gametime and much cheaper. I agree with the above that there will be a lot of Oklahoma State fans there so that can change the calculus.
We ended up staying at a expensive but pretty craptacular hotel in South Beach last year. I am not doing that again. I went ahead and booked reservations at a nice hotel this time.
Stanford is not going to be in many BCS bowls in our lifetime so I am willing to splurge on these trips. I am leaning towards locking up tickets early as I don't want to take any chances.
