Orange Bowl Tickets

It’s always to predict the winner of a college football bowl game, especially when you have teams from different conferences. And while some games have a history of blowouts and mismatches, the Orange Bowl almost always produces a close, exciting game. Several recent Orange Bowls have been decided by less than three points, and top teams like Penn State, Florida State, Oklahoma, USC, Miami and Florida have all played in the Orange Bowl since ’02.

The Orange Bowl game used to be played at the stadium of the same name, but now it has moved to Sun Life Stadium, the home of the Miami Dolphins. While the old Miami Orange Bowl stadium was filled with history, it was also more than 70 years old and was starting to really show its age, so the venerable venue was finally retired and then demolished a couple years ago. And while that stadium will always enjoy a special place in college football history, many fans were happy to see the Orange Bowl game moved to a much newer and nicer facility.

Like many of today’s biggest college bowl games, the Orange Bowl had a rather modest beginning, although the first Orange Bowl in ’35 featured the Miami Hurricanes, who have since played in eight other Orange Bowl games. But they were not up to the task in that first game and fell to Bucknell by a score of 26-0. Other early winners of the game included teams like Duquesne, Santa Clara and Catholic University, but of course those names have been replaced by some of the top teams in college football today. This year’s Orange Bowl will match the champion of the ACC against a BCS at-large team, or possibly two at-large teams if the ACC champ plays for the national championship. But no matter who plays, GoTickets.com will have your Orange Bowl game tickets.

Although GoTickets.com will deliver your Orange Bowl tickets by FedEx, they will no longer say FedEx Orange Bowl on them as the game’s longtime sponsor did not renew after 21 years of affiliation. So it’s back to being just the Orange Bowl, but it’s still one of the top college bowl games of the year. If you want Orange Bowl tickets, GoTickets.com has them for you, along with Rose Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, Sugar Bowl, and BCS National Championship tickets.
