International Bowl Betting Matchup
TBD
The International Bowl is a post-season college football game sanctioned by the NCAA that saw its inaugural game played Jan. 6, 2007 at Rogers Centre in Toronto. It was the first bowl game outside the USA since Auburn and Villanova played in Havana in 1937.
The Bacardi Bowl almost wasn’t played, according to news accounts of the day, because Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista objected to the fact his photo was not included in the game program. But Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper didn't have the same vain concern before kick-off of the International Bowl.
