The 2024 Alamo Bowl is a college football bowl game that is scheduled to be played on December 28, 2024, at the Alamodome located in San Antonio, Texas. The 32nd annual Alamo Bowl game will feature the BYU Cougars and Colorado Buffaloes, both from the Big 12 Conference. The game is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. CST and will air on ABC.[2][3] The Alamo Bowl will be one of the 2024–25 bowl games concluding the 2024 FBS football season. The bowl game will be sponsored by Valero Energy, and the game will be officially known as the Valero Alamo Bowl.
Teams
[edit]Based on conference tie-ins, the game will feature teams from the Big 12 Conference and the Pac-12 Conference legacy pool. The Alamo Bowl gets the first selection of Big 12 teams not competing in the College Football Playoff[4] and the first selection from the Pac-12 legacy pool—that is, teams that were members of the Pac-12 during the 2023 season.[5]
On December 4, bowl organizers announced that four teams remained under consideration for the Alamo Bowl: Iowa State and BYU from the Big 12, and Arizona State and Colorado from the Pac-12 legacy pool.[6] As both Arizona State and Colorado became Big 12 members in 2024, the announcement made it likely that the Alamo Bowl would feature an unusual bowl matchup of teams from the same conference.
