With the Big 12 exploring a new bowl game in Mexico, what international bowl would you create? (You cant make the Whataburger Germany Bowl, thats mine)
The Broken Empire Bowl (Brought to you by Blockbuster). We force the Ivy League back up to FBS, and have the two winners of the Ivy League play in the heart of the former Ottoman Empire, Istanbul
There was a UAE bowl under consideration but let's be honest Saudi Arabia would probably want a bowl game of their own. Call it the Qiddiya Bowl after one of their diversification projects and send a team each from the ACC (Preferably not SMU, Cal or Stanford) and the American to take part and hold it in King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh. What can possibly go wrong? Yes once they get a stadium the game will move to Qiddiya, stop asking.
I went to the first international bowl in Toronto and it was one of the best games I've ever seen wmu was down 24-0 at the half and stormed back to tie the game
Probably the craziest ending I’ve ever seen in a sports game was the 2014 Bahamas Bowl, I was 9, but watching Cooper Rush throw up that prayer will always stick with me
As a Florida fan and alum, I had no clue that we played a bowl game in Cuba against a Tennis Club and that our HC got arrested by Cuban officials. Florida man never changes😂😂 Go Gators 🐊🟧🟦
There was a Havana Bowl for awhile. Nowadays you have The Mitchell and Uteck Bowls in Canada which qualify two Teams to joust for The Vanier Cup. And you also have Japanese College Teams. Fascinating twist on the usual scene.🤔🏈B.W.
Our local newspaper posted a list of all the upcoming bowl games back in the 90s that referenced the Haka Bowl once. I remember waiting to hear about it again around Christmas, only to end up believing I’d dreamt it up. This was the dial-up era, so I didn’t even think to look it up until today.
Not a bowl game, but does anybody remember the Glasnost Bowl project? When USC and Illinois were supposed to play each other in Russia/the Soviet Union to start off the 1989 season? I’m kinda sad that one never came to be.
The Aztec Bowl is an NCAA-sanctioned college division/minor (prior to 1997); AFCA Division III (since 1997) Division II/III (since 2011) post-season bowl game that has been played intermittently since 1947. From 1947 to 1949 the event was called the Silver Bowl, and in 1950 the name was changed to the Aztec Bowl.
Can we get a bowl game in which the best American college team plays the best Canadian football team, and the game can switch year to year between both countries?
This would actually be pretty cool. I know the Ivy plays a Japanese team at the end of the season, but that game is pretty low profile. Would be neat if more schools did this, even though the NCAA wouldn't sponsor it.
McGill of Montreal played Harvard in the early 20th Century when Harvard was considered a Major Gate Attraction. How long ago? Centre College knocked off Harvard in what was considered at the time an astonishing upset. Centre's enrollment then was all of about 300 on the Danville, Kentucky campus!🤔🇺🇸🇨🇦🏈B.W.
It's something I've thought about, being from Kansas. I have a lot of Wushock friends who've talked to me about it. Just feels like the money barrier is too high for a new team, but if there's some momentum towards a minidoc on that team I'd look into it in the future.
For the record, I went to all 4 international bowls The one with Buffalo in it almost had a full house and it’s a shame they lost, the Huskies got the trophy with almost no one remaining in the skydome. As the skydome has been converted into a baseball stadium only, and this year they are turning the seats around to make a better ballpark experience, bringing this game back to Toronto is impossible currently. Let’s not also mention that the name for the game outright sucked. I sometimes joked it should have been called the Tim Hortons Coffee Bowl, or even the Maple Bowl or Maple Syrup Bowl. The only way a bowl game comes back to Toronto is if a true indoor NFL stadium is built, and I say good luck with that.
All I can say is I am so glad that the Bahamas bowl is no longer existing, at least temporarily. It was like Covid games before Covid existed. Nobody showed up and literally nobody cared. It was brutal. I had to watch my UAB in the Bahamas bowl last year and let me tell you It was absolutely lethargic. I would prefer that there are never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever anymore international Bowl games, but if there are any… At least put big name teams internationally so some people might show up and put them in places that actually care about the sport.

TDBank Leaf Bowl-Toronto
MW vs SBC
The Macy’s Taiwan Bowl Classic. Get the two worst FBS teams to play each other. Loser has to invade Taiwan

A CFB bowl in Mexico?

I'm glad to know the Bahamas Bowl isn't dead. It's the weird games like that which make college football great, even if not a lot of people turn up
As a Florida fan and alum, I had no clue that we played a bowl game in Cuba against a Tennis Club and that our HC got arrested by Cuban officials. Florida man never changes😂😂 Go Gators 🐊🟧🟦
I'm satisfied, this story made it. Probably one of my favorite ridiculous college football stories. Cheating Cubans!

Still surprised it’s taken this long for a Mexico vacation city to get a bowl game.

Wyoming played UTEP in the Australia Bowl in 1985
I did it. I have finally formulated the perfect college football realignment.
You should do a video on historical weird defunct bowls
I honestly totally forgot about the international games, It’s cool to look back on
Give me a bowl game in Barrow Alaska, make it for the lesser win teams like UConn and Umass
I don’t have a reason but I love this channel. Keep it up ❤
I needed this today

would have to be a division 2 team for it to be competitive. and would they play american rules or canadian?
I love your videos please continue to make cfb videos (im watching this in school too)
Get back to studying Drew. We need you vs the eagles 🤣
Pay attention in class!
Rip Simon Fraser football
Even though it was the last week of the regular season, Wisconsin and Michigan State played in Japan in the 90s
Hear me out:
Burrito Bowl 🌯
Mexico City 🇲🇽
Estadio Azteca 🐆
Famous Toastery hasn’t tweeted since 2019. They have been updating their Instagram regularly with bowl hype.
Bring back the Bahamas bowl 😭😭
Next international bowl: Doha Bowl in Qatar. SEC vs Big 10 (A&M already has a branch there)
That would be pretty cool
Al Bayt Stadium from the world cup just looks like a top NFL stadium on the inside
Do you have any plans to produce a video about the plane crash, and the Shockers subsequently disbanding their football program?

I thought there was a game in Japan but it was only a Mirage
2nd
also what is that flag on the thumbnail? the weird New Zealand thing
The flag of the Maori people! I chose that one instead of the New Zealand flag because I felt it was more fitting for the Haka Bowl.
@@lukeontheplainsdid'nt know the Maori had their own flag. I suppose that also helps because everybody confuses the NZ flag with the Aussie one.
Depends on how much money another country is willing to pay to make it happen
