Teams
Kansas State Wildcats
Kansas State officially accepted an invitation to the bowl on December 3, 2010.[3] After a 7-5 regular season the Wildcats return to a bowl game for the first time since the 2006 season. This will be the 14th bowl game in school history for K-State. Coach Bill Snyder has coached the Wildcats in all but two of their previous bowls.
Syracuse Orange
Syracuse officially accepted an invitation to the bowl on December 3, 2010.[4] Second year head coach Doug Marrone, who grew up in the Bronx, just minutes from the old Yankee Stadium led the Orange to a 7-5 record and their first bowl game since the 2004 Champs Sports Bowl. Syracuse was required to win seven games in order to become bowl-eligible as two of their victories came over Football Championship Subdivision opponents. Only one of the victories is allowed to count toward bowl eligibility.

Notes
- First bowl game played in New York since the 1962 Gotham Bowl (at old Yankee Stadium); 6,166 fans saw Nebraska defeat Miami 36-34 on frozen turf.
- Syracuse and Kansas State have met twice in school history. Both matchups happened to come in bowl games. K-State defeated the Orange in the 1997 Fiesta Bowl, 35-18 and the Orange were victorious by a score of 26-3 in the 2001 Insight.com Bowl. This was their first meeting outside the Phoenix Metropolitan Area.
- Senior Andrew Lewis and freshman Brice Hawkes were suspended for a rules violation by Syracuse head coach Doug Marrone.
- The final result of the 2010 Pinstripe Bowl is subject to criticism due to a "Excessive Celebration" Penalty against Kansas State.[5]
