Football: The Big Ten Bowl tie-ins continue to grow.
​
The Big Ten has announced four-year extensions with the Capital One, Outback and Alamo Bowls and new four-year agreements with the Champs Sports and Insight Bowls today. Last August, the Big Ten announced an eight-year extension with the Rose Bowl through the 2013 season.

The new Big Ten bowl lineup will run concurrently with the latest Bowl Championship Series (BCS) contract, which will expand to five games during the 2006-09 seasons and provide two additional at-large berths each year.

Beginning with the 2006 season, the Big Ten will kick off a week-long celebration of college football in Orlando, as the league will take part in the Champs Sports Bowl during the final week of December and the Capital One Bowl in January. The Big Ten has never taken part in the Champs Sports Bowl, which was known as the Tangerine Bowl from 2001 to 2003 upon its move to Orlando. The event was previously held in Miami, Fla., from its inception in 1990 as the Blockbuster Bowl to its final year in Miami in 2000 as the Micronpc.com Bowl, when North Carolina State edged Minnesota.

The Insight Bowl is the latest addition to the Big Ten bowl lineup and will feature a contest against a Big 12 foe. With the annual event moving to Tempe beginning in 2006, the conference will have it’s first-ever bowl game tie-in with the state of Arizona. Previously known as the Copper Bowl from its inception in 1989 through 1996, Big Ten teams are 2-0 in this event with victories by Indiana in 1991 and Wisconsin in 1996.

Big Ten adds deals with two bowls, drops two <o =""></o>

PARK RIDGE, Ill. -- The Big Ten is making some changes to its bowl game lineup. <o =""></o>
The conference has reached a four-year deal that adds the Insight Bowl in Tempe, Ariz., and the Champs Sports Bowl in Orlando, Fla., to the list of Big Ten bowl partners, starting in 2006. <o =""></o>

The Big Ten will drop the Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas, and the Music City Bowl in Nashville, Tenn., after the upcoming season. <o =""></o>

The conference also extended its agreement with the Alamo, Outback and Capital One bowls for four more years. It already had signed an eight-year extension with the Rose Bowl through 2013. <o =""></o>

"With a heavy concentration of Big Ten alumni in the states of Arizona, California, Florida and Texas, this bowl lineup is a natural fit for the conference and should provide some great matchups on the field," Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said Tuesday. <o =""></o>

The Champs Sports Bowl, scheduled for the final week of December, will have the fourth choice of Big Ten schools for two years and the fifth choice the other two years. The Big Ten's opponent for the bowl has yet to be determined. <o =""></o>

ACC and Orange Bowl nearing deal

The Atlantic Coast Conference may be on the verge of shaking up its postseason, too. The [ACC] and Orange Bowl are finalizing a deal that would pit the ACC champion against either Notre Dame, an SEC or Big Ten team starting after the 2014 regular season, sources told ESPN. The ACC champion, or another team from the conference if its champion qualifies for the national semifinals, will play annually in the Orange Bowl. How the ACC's opponent will be selected from Notre Dame, the SEC or Big Ten is still being determined. The ACC and Orange Bowl would have the opportunity to take Notre Dame, if it doesn't make the national semifinals; an SEC team not in the national semifinals or Champions Bowl; or a Big Ten team not in the semifinals or Rose Bowl.

Big Ten wants to shake up bowl alliances

Sure, why wouldn't the Big Ten tinker with its bowl schedule? Why not, they're changing everything else in college football. The league will remain tied to the Rose Bowl and probably the Capital One and Outback, but beyond that it's entering its final year of current bowl ties, and commissioner Jim Delany said there likely will be changes. "It could be a lot," he said Wednesday. The Big Ten also has ties to the Gator, the Buffalo Wild Wings, the Meineke Car Care, the Heart of Dallas and Little Caesars Pizza bowls. Delany said he could have unspecified bowl deals within a few weeks and also has discussed alternating bowl ties with other conferences.

Source: Big Ten, Pinstripe Bowl agree
Updated: June 2, 2013
By Brett McMurphy | ESPN

The New Era Pinstripe Bowl will announce a partnership of at least six years with the Big Ten, a source told ESPN.

The 3-year-old postseason game and the league will make the announcement Monday at Yankee Stadium, according to the source.

Starting in 2014, a team from the Big Ten will annually play an ACC team in the Pinstripe Bowl, sources said. However, the ACC partnership will not be part of Monday afternoon's press conference.

The deal between the Big Ten and Yankee Stadium also will include additional future conference events held at the ballpark, a source said. Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany and Yankees managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner are among the officials who will attend Monday's event.

Starting in 2014, the Pinstripe Bowl is expected to be in a Big Ten three-bowl pool with the Kraft Fight Hunger and Gator/Music City to get the fifth through seventh selections from the conference.

The Pinstripe also is expected to be in an ACC four-bowl pool with the Belk, Sun and Gator/Music City to get the third through sixth selections from the league.

This year, the last of the current bowl cycle, will match teams from the Big 12 and American Athletic conferences, formerly the Big East.

The move is not unexpected. Athletic directors at the Big Ten meetings in Chicago two weeks ago said the league was working to add the Pinstripe Bowl to its new postseason lineup.

Big Ten, Pac-12 tweak bowl lineups

College football's postseason continues to mutate as we prepare for the advent of the College Football Playoff, and we're starting to get a clearer idea of the future bowl set-ups for two power conferences in the Big Ten and Pac-12.

The two leagues will square off in the Holiday Bowl in San Diego, where the Pac-12's third team will play the Big Ten's fourth team, as well as the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl in San Francisco, where the Pac-12's fourth or fifth team will play the Big Ten's fifth, sixth, or seventh teams.

The Big Ten also announced a partnership with the Pinstripe Bowl in Yankee Stadium, where they will play an ACC team, and the Pac-12 also said it will swap out the New Mexico Bowl on its list of tie-ins with the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl in Arizona, where they will play the Big 12.

The cold truth about bowls in B1G territory - ESPN Big Ten blog

I live in the Midwest. I also live in reality.

After hearing the gripes from a segment of Big Ten fans about the league adding bowl games in San Diego (Holiday) and the San Francisco Bay area (Kraft Fight Hunger) to the future postseason lineup, it's time for a reality check about bowls and the places in which they're played. As many of you know, the bowl system was launched to promote tourism in warm-weather cities and to allow fans, many of them in Big Ten country, to escape the cold around the holidays. There's a reason bowls are named after roses and oranges instead of snow plows and antifreeze.

People want to watch football in late December and early January in short sleeves and shorts. They want a vacation-like setting. The locations of the bowl games drive the appeal. That's the way it is, and the way it always will be.

While I understand the concerns about travel costs and the other challenges associated with attending bowl games far from home, none of this is new.
