International Bowl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Bowl is a college American football bowl game played in Toronto, Ontario. The first game will be played on January 6, 2007 at the Rogers Centre. It will be the first post-season bowl game to be played outside the United States since the Bacardi Bowl was played in Cuba on January 1, 1937, and the first football game of significance to be played in Canada under American rules since Simon Fraser University's football team (The Simon Fraser Clan) left the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics after the 2001 season and joined Canadian Interuniversity Sport, where Canadian universities play under Canadian football rules.
The inaugural game will match up Western Michigan University with the University of Cincinnati and will be televised live on ESPN2 in the United States and TSN in Canada.
