BIRMINGHAM — The 2020 TicketSmarter Birmingham Bowl has been canceled.
According to an announcement from the Birmingham City Council, the 15th annual bowl game has been waved due to recent changes and a number of teams opting out of postseason play.
“We have made the difficult decision to cancel the TicketSmarter Birmingham Bowl,” Mark Meadows, Executive Director, said. “As the inventory of available teams lessened, our ability to stage the game was compromised. We will direct our focus to next year’s bowl and look forward to staging the game in the 2021 season.”
The TicketSmarter Birmingham Bowl was slated to take place on Friday, Jan. 1, 2021, at Legion Field.
