Bowling, beef and basketball keeping the AT&T Cotton Bowl teams entertained

   Tuesday night, players from both LSU and Texas A&M were treated to a Dallas Mavericks game at the American Airlines Center.
   Before the game, Texas A&M took its turn in the Beef Bowl, the longstanding Cotton Bowl dining tradition at Lawry's The Prime Rib.
   The consensus favorite among the Aggies to eat the most prime rib was offensive lineman Rhontae Scales, who is listed at a svelte 6-6, 317 pounds.
   "I'd have to say Rhontae Scales," said center Matt Allen. "He can eat. That's a big boy. [When he comes over] lock the fridge and the pantry."
   On Sunday night, the teams were given full-run of Mane Event, an entertainment and arcade complex. Bowling was the game of choice during Texas A&M's visit with kicker Ross Gilliam and quarterbacks Jerrod Johnson and Ryan Tannehill among the top keglers.
   "Tannehill can pretty much do anything," said cornerback Terrence Frederick, who himself bowled a personal best of 193. "Golf, ski. He's pretty good at anything."
   Reports from the event, however, said Gilliam took top honors on the lanes with a 207.
