Oil Bowl

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the article about the college football game. For the high school game, see Oil Bowl (high school).

Oil Bowl was a college football bowl game played at Rice Stadium in Houston, Texas, in 1946 and 1947. Freezing temperatures for the second game doomed any future contests. The 1944 game was considered a College Division/Minor bowl game, and the game was played again in 1949 as a Junior College bowl game.
