FAYETTEVILLE — The Armed Forces Bowl was added to the SEC's list of affiliated postseason games Thursday, one day after the Las Vegas Bowl was canceled due to state health regulations.
Scheduled to be played at TCU's Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, Texas, on Dec. 31, the Armed Forces Bowl will include teams from the SEC and Pac-12, just as the Las Vegas Bowl was set to do. It will be the first time the SEC has been affiliated with the Armed Forces Bowl, which began in 2003 and has primarily involved teams from non-Power 5 conferences.
The Las Vegas Bowl was to begin a partnership with the SEC this year at the new Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders.
