Reposting here because for some reason this ended up in the basketball Thread the first time...

So today we have the New Mexico Bowl.

Which doesn't involve any team from the state of New Mexico. And will be played in Texas.

An I missing something here?

It's usually played in Albuquerque but got moved this year due to COVID.  The most interesting part of its history is that it was once sponsored by Dreamhouse Productions, until they discovered that company didn't exist and the founder was a huge scam artist.

Was there actually a question as to the reason that it was moved to a different state? 

In 2020, I am going to assume Covid until informed otherwise.

Covid.

It may a statewide policy rather than something peculiar to Albuquerque.
