MM 12.15: NCAA announces FBS teams can add postseason matchup

Football Bowl Subdivision teams will be able to replace canceled bowl games after Dec. 19, the NCAA Football Oversight Committee announced Monday.

These matchups must replace a previously scheduled bowl game and will have to feature teams from the originally contracted conferences.

The RedBox Bowl (Big Ten-Pac-12) and the Pinstripe Bowl (Big Ten-ACC) have already been called off this year. If Maryland is eligible for either of these bowl games, under the NCAA FOC’s stipulation, it can schedule a game against a different Pac-12 or ACC school.

These contests will have to be played prior to the conclusion of the calendar year.
