Honesty is the best policy.  I don't know that I deserve one yet.  There are too many guys who I think are better officials and have lots more experience that I do.

Interesting read... I just found the NCAA Postseason Football Handbook online. 

Here is what it states for the Officials (Page 18 of the pdf document):
Quote
Gifts
The bowl game’s management shall present each game official, including the standby
official, a watch as a gift. Game management may deduct from gross receipts the cost of the
gifts to officials, provided the value is approximately $350 per official.

I'm also interested to know what the hosts do for the officials.  For instance, I have a friend who worked the Champs Sports Bowl a few years ago.  I believe the bowl took the officials and their families to Disney World one day.  The officials who work the Liberty Bowl take a trip to Graceland while they are in Memphis.

Also, many times, the officials get more than just a watch.  This might not be from the actual bowl though.  Some conferences have shoe/apparel contracts that reward the bowl officials with extra stuff.  It also wouldn't surprise me if some of the conferences give extras to their bowl officials.

Very interesting to see what the players and the officials receive. Are the crews for the bowl games "crews" or are they the best officials at each position, or does it matter what conference it is and how they go about it?

In the two conferences I'm familiar with, crews from the regular season are not sent to the bowl games.  The officials at the bowl games are sent based on their performance during the season.
