2020 Bowl Lineup
« on: June 04, 2019, 01:08:44 PM »
https://www.google.com/amp/s/watchstadium.com/news/college-football-bowl-game-lineup-for-next-six-seasons-to-be-announced-06-03-2019/amp/

SEC (10 bowls)
2020-25 lineup:
Sugar vs. Big 12
Citrus vs. Big Ten
Las Vegas vs. Pac-12/Belk vs. ACC
Outback vs. Big Ten
Texas vs. Big 12
Gator vs. ACC
Music City vs. Big Ten
Liberty vs. Big 12
Birmingham vs. American
Gasparilla vs. American

Changes: The new Las Vegas and Belk bowls are expected to be in the pool of bowls for selections three through eight (along with Texas, Outback, Gator, Music City and Liberty). The Citrus Bowl will still receive the second pick (after the College Football Playoff selections and Sugar Bowl). The SEC vs. Pac-12 matchup in the Las Vegas Bowl will be the first non-playoff matchup between the conferences since the 1989 Freedom Bowl.

ACC (11 bowls)
2020-25 lineup:
Orange vs. SEC/Big Ten/Notre Dame
Camping World vs. Big 12
Belk vs. SEC/Big Ten
Holiday vs. Pac-12
Fenway Park vs. American
Pinstripe vs. Big Ten
Sun vs. Pac-12
Gator vs. SEC
Military vs. American
Independence vs. Pac-12
Gasparilla vs. SEC

Changes: The 15-member ACC – including Notre Dame for bowl purposes – will have guaranteed bowl bids for 73 percent of its membership, most among all conferences. The ACC will no longer play in the Quick Lane Bowl in Detroit, instead participating in the new Fenway Park Bowl against the American and the ACC replaced the Big Ten in the Holiday Bowl. Also, the ACC will play in the Outback Bowl in place of the Big Ten any year in which the Big Ten has a team in the Orange Bowl. This arrangement was previously with the Citrus Bowl.

Big 10 (9 bowls)
2020-25 lineup:
Rose vs. Pac-12

Edit: Orange (ACC vs SEC/Big Ten/ND)
Citrus vs. SEC
Outback vs. SEC

Edit: years that Big Ten sends a team to Orange Bowl, the ACC will take the Big Ten's spot in the Outback Bowl
Las Vegas vs. Pac-12/Belk vs. ACC

Edit:  years that Big Ten sends a team to Las Vegas, the Big Ten won't send a team to the Belk Bowl, and Vice Versa.
Music City vs. SEC
Pinstripe vs. ACC
Redbox vs. Pac-12
Edit:  Quick Lane vs. MAC
Cheez-It vs. Big 12

Changes: The biggest difference for the Big Ten in the new cycle is adding Las Vegas/Belk in place of the Holiday Bowl. Also, the Big Ten replaces the Pac-12 in the Cheez-It Bowl. The Big Ten will have the highest percentage of bowl games against other Power 5 opponents – eight of nine – including three bowls each vs. the SEC and Pac-12. One change among the Big Ten bowl opponents is the Quick Lane Bowl, where the Big Ten is expected to play a team from the American instead of the ACC.

Pac-12 (8)
2020-25 lineup:
Rose vs. Big Ten
Alamo vs. Big 12
Las Vegas vs. SEC/Big Ten
Los Angeles vs. Mountain West
Holiday vs. ACC
Redbox vs. Big Ten
Sun vs. ACC
Independence vs. ACC

Changes: The NCAA granted the Pac-12 an additional bowl bid in the new cycle and the Pac-12 is expected to add the Los Angeles Bowl vs. the Mountain West and the Independence Bowl against the ACC. The Pac-12 also will play against either the SEC or the Big Ten in the new Las Vegas Bowl. By adding two bowls, the Pac-12 had to drop one – it’s expected to be the Cheez-It Bowl. The Pac-12 will now have Power 5 opponents in seven of its eight bowls, including three from the ACC and at least two from the Big Ten.

Big 12 (7 bowls)
2020-25 lineup:
Sugar vs. SEC
Alamo vs. Pac-12
Camping World vs. ACC
Texas vs. SEC
Liberty vs. SEC
Cheez-It vs. Big Ten
Armed Forces vs. Group of 5/First Responder vs. Group of 5

Changes: None. The Big 12 will maintain its same bowl affiliations in the new bowl cycle. The Big 12 will play three SEC opponents and one each from the ACC, Big Ten and Pac-12. The biggest changes will be facing the Big Ten instead of the Pac-12 in the Cheez-It Bowl and facing a Group of 5 opponent in the Armed Forces/First Responder bowls.

So Cheez It goes back to what it was very recently, right?  I think MSU-TCU and UM-KSU were matchups in back to back years in like 2012 and 2013?

Woo hoo!  The Cheeze-it Bowl (AKA the Copper/Cactus/Insight.com)  is back to a Big Ten vs. Big 12 matchup.  Not sure where it falls in the Big Ten pecking order.  Guessing it will be below the Music City but hopefully above the Pinnstripe.

Hopefully the Pinstripe will only be for 2 more years until the 8-year contract runs out.  That bowl can't go away fast enough as far as I am concerned.

Big 12 (7 bowls)
2020-25 lineup:
Sugar vs. SEC
Alamo vs. Pac-12
Camping World vs. ACC
Texas vs. SEC
Liberty vs. SEC
Cheez-It vs. Big Ten
Armed Forces vs. Group of 5/First Responder vs. Group of 5

Changes: None. The Big 12 will maintain its same bowl affiliations in the new bowl cycle. The Big 12 will play three SEC opponents and one each from the ACC, Big Ten and Pac-12. The biggest changes will be facing the Big Ten instead of the Pac-12 in the Cheez-It Bowl and facing a Group of 5 opponent in the Armed Forces/First Responder bowls.
I don't get the Discussion of the "Armed Forces/First Responder bowl."
Per the Font of All Wisdom and Knowledge, here's the current tie-in arrangement for the First Responder Bowl:

Quote
. . . C-USA is contracted to send a team each season, with alternating appearances from the Big Ten (even seasons) and Big 12 (odd seasons). For the 2015 season, the Big 12 did not have enough bowl-eligible teams, so the selection committee selected the Washington Huskies from the Pac-12 Conference to take its place. For the 2016 season, the Big Ten sent four teams to CFP bowls, so the selection committee chose an at-large team, independent Army, to take its place.

As this is an odd year, the Big 12 would seem to have the commitment.

As for the Armed Forces Bowl:

Quote
2019: Mountain West vs. Big Ten

So it would seem that the discussion should be about the First Responder Bowl, with nothing said about the Armed Forces Bowl. And the Armed Forces Bowl should be mentioned in the discussion of the Big Ten's bowls.

Maybe someone should tell the writer at watchstadium.com how to spell "Big Ten."

And the Big 12 could use one or two fewer against the SEC.
I liked it when the Alamo Bowl was a Big 12 vs. Big Ten matchup.
I remember a great Nebraska vs. Michigan State game there, back in the bad old days before the Big 12 went on life support.

Huskers played a very competitive game in the Alamo 2 years later vs Michigan and Chad Henne

I-back Cory Ross was the hero in both Alamo bowls

Hey, that's three bowls within relatively easy driving distance for me...

Not that I expect Purdue to make the Rose, but I can drive to Vegas or Phoenix pretty easily.

FWIW, the Fiesta and Peach Bowls are the CFP Semifinals this year.

Although the Big Ten technically has agreements with 11 different bowls, they will only go to 9 of those bowls each year.

The agreement with the Orange Bowl is that any year that the Big Ten sends a non-playoff team to the Orange,  then the Big Ten won't send a team to the Outback Bowl.  The ACC will then take the Big Ten's spot in the Outback Bowl instead.

The agreements with the Belk and Las Vegas Bowls are split 50/50 deals.  Whenever the Big Ten sends a team to the Las Vegas Bowl, it won't send a team to the Belk, and Vice Versa.

Net result.  9 bowls a year for the Big Ten

I find it interesting how few of these bowls sell out, or even come close to it.  I think at times they sell some tickets, but the holders look like empty seats.

Without TV, we'd probably have 15 bowl games or so I suspect.

I wonder when the last bowl game happened with zero TV coverage.
