Birmingham Bowl Information
 | The Birmingham Bowl is a NCAA football bowl game played annually at the 71,594-seat Legion Field in Birmingham, Alabama. Birmingham had previously hosted the Dixie Bowl from 1947-1948, the Hall of Fame Classic from 1977-1985 (relocated to Tampa, FL and now named the Outback Bowl), and the All-American Bowl from 1986-1990.
The game currently features teams from the SEC and the American Athletic Conference. Should either of these conferences not fulfill their bowl commitments, a team from C-USA or the Mid-American Conference will take their place, provided it is bowl eligible. Otherwise, the game will choose an at-large team. The game moved from Legion Field to the new Protective Stadium in 2021.
