2021 Holiday Bowl Is Officially Cancelled

Holiday Bowl official Rick Schloss announced this morning that the bowl has been cancelled. His statement is below:

Sadly we are announcing that the 2021 SDCCU Holiday Bowl is cancelled.  We worked closely with Boo Corrigan and the fantastic NC State Athletics staff to try and find a replacement team for UCLA, but were unable to do so.  We are especially heartbroken for the Student Athletes and, of course, our RedCoat and RedShirt volunteers and staff who spent so much time and effort into planning an incredible festival of events, culminating in a premier bowl game.  We are so lucky to have tremendous relationships with our title sponsor - San Diego County Credit Union,  FOX Sports, our civic and other sponsor partners and, of course, our fans.  We also want to acknowledge and thank the San Diego Padres and the Petco Park staff for taking us in and transforming the ballpark into a world-class football facility.  We look forward to coming back in 2022 and putting on one heck of a show!
