Sun Bowl Information

The Sun Bowl is an annual U.S. college football bowl game that is usually played at the end of December, in on the campus of the University of Texas at El Paso, El Paso, Texas, at Sun Bowl Stadium . In most of its early history, the game pitted the champion of the Border Conference against an at-large opponent. Beginning in 2010, the Sun Bowl matches the Pac-12 Conference against the ACC. The Sun Bowl will have the third selection after the BCS from the Pac-12 and either the ACC Championship Game runner-up or the third pick after the BCS from the ACC. Since 2014, the Sun Bowl Football Selection Committee has shared the third through sixth selections from the ACC with the Belk Bowl, the Pinstripe Bowl and either the Taxslayer Bowl or the Music City Bowl. The Orange Bowl has the conference champion or the first selection, followed by the Russell Athletic Bowl. The game is carried on CBS.
