Orlando Sentinel: Orlando to get third college football bowl

The Orlando Sentinel is reporting that Orlando will host a third college football bowl game and that it will be played at the Citrus Bowl.

 

Orlando already hosts two bowl games: the Russell Athletic and Capital One bowls.  The new bowl game is expected to match teams from the American Athletic Conference, UCF’s current league, and the Sun Belt.

 

The Citrus Bowl is currently undergoing a $200 million renovation which is expected to be complete by November.  The new game will be played before the Russell Athletic Bowl in December.

 

The newspaper is reporting that city officials will make a formal announcement on Wednesday.
