Today's SEC Championship matchup is a fully loaded affair with huge implications. When the Florida Gators (11-1) travel to Alabama (12-0), the winner will not only enjoy the glory of being the 2008 SEC champion and beating one of the best teams in the nation, the winner will also receive a BCS National Championship berth. Needless to say, this game cannot be taken lightly by either side. But what even adds more flame to this white fire is that the team dynamics seem to boil down to one of the classic questions in almost any sport: Which wins, Speed or Power? The Florida Gators, aptly filling the speed role, are led by their do it all quarterback Tim Tebow. Not only can he throw the frozen rope into tight coverage, he can also run it if there's no option available downfield. On the other hand, Alabama's strength is borderline preternatural. Exemplifying this trait is Alabama's nose guard Terrence "Mount" Cody, a 380 pound beast of a man. He has been the backbone of the stalwart Alabama defense this year and Florida needs to figure out a way to block him or it'll be an easy win for the Crimson Tide. As much as pundits believe it will be power vs. speed, however, the respective coaches of each team believe that they have all the necessary skills (both strength and speed) to defeat the opposing team. However it goes down, the best way to see it all is live with these great SEC Championship tickets.

A bowl of sugar seems like it would be hard to play a good football game in. Getting traction would prove to be much more challenging than on the usual turf surfaces. Luckily, the Sugar Bowl doesn’t actually have any sugar, except in the Gatorade, and the players actually play on turf. We need not worry. However, we don’t know yet who will be playing in this big game in the Superdome in New Orleans. It will be played between a BCS at-large team and either the SEC champion or another BCS at-large team, depending on who these teams are. Two years ago, they had to move the game to Atlanta, Georgia, due to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. But they are back in New Orleans now, and it’s going to be a great game. There are so many great teams this year so it has to be a fun game! This year, the Sugar Bowl is not the BCS championship game, but it is still a real boost to a team when they win it. Have you ever been to a bowl game? Do you want to? The game is on January 2nd so come in and check out our Sugar Bowl tickets.

This is only the second year that there will be an NHL Winter Classic game.  Last season, on January 1, 2008, this outdoor ice hockey game was played in Orchard Park, New York, at Ralph Wilson Stadium. In that game, the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Buffalo Sabres 2-1 in a shootout.The young Penguins star Sidney Crosby scored the winning goal in the shootout. This year, the two teams will be the Detriot Red Wings playing against the Chicago Blackhawks at Chicago's historic Wrigley Field.  Wrigley Field is usually the home of the Chicago Cubs baseball team, and this will be the first hockey game played in it. What's so different about these games?  It's outdoors! Maybe it'll be cold to watch the game.  But at the same time, the game is going to be so exciting that you hardly even notice! It is an historic event that you should not miss! Get 2009 Winter Classic tickets as soon as possible.

The NFL has already played for 12 weeks. It seems like just yesterday that we excitedly watched opening day games, back when it was warm and sunny, with a light, crisp autumn breeze in the air. Now, at least in some parts of the country, it's gotten colder, with some games being played in the snow! It has been an exciting season, too. The New York Giants and the Tennessee Titans are this year’s headliners, with records of 10-1 and 11-1 respectively. But there are several divisions that have 2- and 3-way ties. With 4-5 games left to go, the NFC South leader, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has a record of 8-3, which isn’t too shabby. But the last-place New Orleans Saints has a record of 6-5, and still could easily take the division. In the AFC North, it is similar, with the top team leading the second place one by a mere game. It is going to be nothing but exciting in a lot of games over the next month. And then the playoffs begin! So everything from now to the Super Bowl at the beginning of February is going to be great. Take a look at our NFL football tickets now, and get tickets to see your favorite team!

"THE HORROR! THE HORROR!" Kurtz's last words in Heart of Darkness pertaining to the BCS rankings have never been more applicable. This year, with only a few weeks to go before the season ends and bowl game bids are announced, the ranking system is utter madness. First place has never been so heavily contested...perhaps ever. The possible bids for the big BCS bowl game could go to numerous worthy teams. Naturally, barring any last game meltdown, the Alabama Crimson Tide have their place locked in. It's the opponent's bid that makes this matter convoluted. There are three other teams with a 10-1 record, who have equally demonstrated their capabilities: The Texas Longhorns, Florida Gators, and Oklahoma Sooners. With a week left to play in the regular season, only Texas has a game against an unranked opponent. This means that both Florida and Oklahoma have the greater potential to lose a game, and their spot in the BCS game. If they all win, however, it seems impossible to discern who should stay and who should go. But what makes the whole situation even more confusing is that there are a few other undefeated teams who are not even in the top 5. Maybe they didn't have as rough a schedule, but nonetheless, they should get some sort of consideration. But however it goes down, Vivid Seats has the BCS bowl game tickets you need.

At the dawn of every new year, two strong teams play an exciting football game. Before the game, there is a big parade. It all takes place in Pasadena. Take a guess what game it is. If you guessed the Rose Bowl, you would be correct. This coming January, the BCS Championship wont be played at the Rose Bowl. The rules rotate the championship game around the Rose Bowl, the Orange Bowl, the Sugar Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl. But there are some great teams in the running to play in the Rose Bowl this year. Alabama is this year’s big surprise team with a .987 BCS winning percentage. Texas is also an unexpected winner this year so far with a .921 average. Oklahoma had some big troubles at the beginning of the season, but since have gone on an impressive run at the end of this season, bringing them up to third in the BCS. And there are also great non-BCS teams who have a good chance to get into the game! Who wouldn’t want to go to southern California in the middle of winter and see an amazing football game? Or you could even go and see the Tournament of Roses Parade and then watch two of these great teams play in the Rose Bowl, the oldest of all the Bowls! Get your Rose Bowl tickets today!

After some convincing, multiple-goal wins over Cuba and most recently Guatemala, the USA Men’s soccer team has a lot to be confident about. They are playing some extremely cohesive team ball and are capitalizing on their finishing chances. As a team, they can now rest for the remainder of 2008. However, they will be called back into action shortly after the ball drops and 2009 rolls in, as they are scheduled to face off against the perennial talent Sweden on January 24 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California. This is definitely not a match that the US can afford to take lightly. With no condescension really intended, Cuba and Guatemala are far removed from the quality of nearly any team in the European continent. Unfortunately for the US (and its fans), too much confidence is usually built up during these warm up games, ultimately leading to a grave disappointment when the World Cup comes around and the US gets manhandled. Hopefully, the US can just focus on the task at hand and continue to play with the same inspiration that they’ve played with so far. Sweden will be a tough matchup but will be perfect to test out the skills of the 2010 USA World Cup roster. If you want to see it all live, you need look no further than Vivid Seats to find your US men’s soccer tickets.

They were on a nice 3-game winning streak until the Vancouver Canucks came in and gave everything a good hosin' up. The New York Rangers (now 14-6) need to rebound from the decisive loss they experienced the other night when the Canucks' offense proved simply too dominating and scored 6 total goals with 5 different players. The total score of the game, 6-3, does not even capture the full sense of how the game went down. Perhaps they were asleep on their feet or simply just overconfident, but the Rangers fell into a 4-0 deficit within the first 23 minutes of play. The combined efforts of Chris Drury, Aaron Voros and Ryan Callahan (each with a goal for New York) was too little too late. The offense could not get it together. Nor could the defense…they looked sloppy. But maybe most disappointing was the poor performance of Henrik Lundqvist between the pipes for the Rangers. Coming into the game he held the third lowest goals-against ratio in the league (1.92). In this game, however, he didn't even make it through two periods of play, replaced by Stephen Valiquette after letting up his fifth goal. Overall, it was a total letdown on the part of the Rangers. Fortunately for New York, they still maintain a 3 point lead over second place Pittsburgh Penguins and will look to build on that when they play in Ottawa against the Senators this Saturday.

The world of Professional Bull Riding is often overlooked and not given the credit of being one of the most exhilarating sports to watch. Much like the world of NASCAR, Professional Bull Riding holds that suspenseful allure over spectators… that feeling of "in one second, things can go horribly, horribly wrong." One moment the bull rider can be adeptly mastering his beast vehicle, looking as if he will safely attain the requisite 8 seconds on top. One small oversight or slip in over-confidence, however, and the rider's face can be jerked into a concussive meeting with the much sturdier bull's head, followed by a trampling if the bull feels the urge. It's this uneasy excitement that really drives the sport and makes it so interesting to watch. Animal lovers can root for the bull to come out the victor and human lovers can root for the rider. PBR covers both types of interest. Even though the year is winding down, there are still some great chances left to catch all the action of a PBR event live. Take a look at our PBR tickets and find out when the next event comes to a town near you!

While it may be quickly losing ground to the newer, faster and (dare I say) more hardcore world of Mixed Martial Arts Fighting, the "gentleman's sport" of boxing can still thrill the audience when there are two really great fighters going at it in a highly anticipated match. While that in itself may be a somewhat rare occasion anymore, the boxing world has just recently put on some worth-the-hype matches (such as Hopkins vs. Pavlik and Calzaghe vs. Jones Jr.) and has some future tricks up its sleeve as well. The most notable upcoming matchup will be between "The Golden Boy" Oscar De La Hoya and "Pac-Man" Manny Pacquiao. Widely regarded as the best pound for pound fighter in boxing today, Pacquiao is actually listed as the underdog for this matchup because of the fact that he will be fighting up above his normal weight class. Boxing pundits feel that he will be moving too far up to fight against De La Hoya, who will be fighting in a weight class very close to his natural body weight. But then again, Pacquiao is 6 years the junior of De La Hoya so speed and conditioning will be on his side, as well as a recent boxing history that has pushed his confidence level to the ceiling. The one thing fans can expect, however, is a lot of hard hitting punches from both men. Neither wants this to be left in the hands of the judges. You can catch all of this action live if you check out our supply of boxing tickets and find seats to their December 6th showdown today!
