Tickets-History of the Holiday Bowl
Originally, the Holiday Bowl was to feature the
Western Athletic Conference champion against a
nationally-ranked opponent yearly. The WAC champion served as
the automatic host team for the Holiday Bowl from '78 through
'94. From 1978 through 1990, the Bowl matched the WAC champion
against an at-large team. But in 1991, the Bowl agreed to have
the Big Ten third selection play the WAC champion as the
official match-up.
In 1995, the Holiday Bowl sided with the Cotton
Bowl, Pac-10, Big 12 and WAC. In their agreement, the Pac-10
runner-up or WAC champion would play in either the Holiday or
Cotton Bowl and the Big 12 third selection would play in the
Holiday Bowl.
When the WAC broke-up in 1997, the Holiday Bowl
signed agreements with the Pac-10 and Big 12 conferences
altering the match-up. Currently, the Pac-10 runner-up serves
as the game's anchor team to oppose the third selection from
the Big 12.
Since its start in 1978, the Holiday Bowl has
played to more than 90% of capacity. Of the 30 games, 17 had
victory margins of one touchdown or less and the outcome of 19
games was decided in the final two minutes, earning the Holiday
Bowl a well-deserved reputation as one of the most entertaining
and exciting bowl games of the post-season schedule. Reserve
