MM3rdQB: Is this the final Pizza Bowl? | Crain's Detroit Business:"This year’s bowl, which will be Pitt (6-6) versus Bowling Green (10-3) at 6 p.m. on Dec. 26, is the final game under the current contract with Ford Field.
The fate of the Pizza Bowl has been in doubt since the Detroit Lions announced over the summer that they’ll host a new bowl matching Big Ten and Atlantic Coast Conference teams at Ford Field in a six-year deal that begins in 2014.
“If you look at any city right now, there are very, very few that can support two major bowl games,” Lions President Tom Lewand said in July, adding that the Lions would be putting all of their support behind the yet-to-be-named Big Ten/ACC bowl."
