New Mexico Bowl Tickets

No one is ever going to mistake the New Mexico Bowl for the Rose Bowl or Sugar Bowl, but this relatively new game on the college football bowl game schedule has come a long way in just six years. For one thing, the game now has its first corporate sponsor and will be known as the Gildan New Mexico Bowl this year. Held at University Stadium in Albuquerque, the New Mexico Bowl offers up a matchup between the Pac-12 and Mountain West Conference, which opens up all kinds of exciting possibilities. The game formerly featured the WAC and sometimes Conference USA, so the addition of a team from the revamped Pac-12 is big news for this game. The Mountain West Conference has compiled an impressive 4-1 record in the New Mexico Bowl so far, so they will be looking to show they can compete against a major BCS conference when they take on a Pac-12 Conference opponent this year. Now is the time to get your New Mexico Bowl game tickets.

The short history of the New Mexico Bowl has already featured some high scoring games, including last year’s edition when BYU hung up 52 points on UTEP. The ’09 edition featured an overtime game with Wyoming taking down Fresno State by a score of 35-28 and the year before that Colorado State and Fresno State gave New Mexico Bowl ticket holders their money’s worth as they dueled to a 40-35 shootout with the Rams prevailing at the end. Once you have New Mexico Bowl tickets, you’ll be able to plan all kinds of other activities in the Albuquerque area. From gambling at the many casinos around the city to hiking and exploring the Sandia Mountains, the city of Albuquerque is one of the more underrated places to visit. The city is also known for its great Mexican food, much of which features the region’s famous green chilies. Get your New Mexico Bowl game tickets today from GoTickets.
