Poinsettia Bowl Returns To San Diego Dec. 23

SDCCU is sponsoring a Pac-12 versus Power‑4 bowl that the CW will televise to drive local economic activity and expand the network’s college football slate.

Overview

  • Organizers confirmed the 13th SDCCU Poinsettia Bowl will be played at Snapdragon Stadium with a 4:30 p.m. kickoff and a national broadcast on the CW.
  • The matchup is set as the Pac-12 against a Power‑4 opponent from the ACC, Big Ten, or Big 12, but specific teams have not yet been selected.
  • San Diego County Credit Union returns as title sponsor and said the partnership is intended to bring community benefits and regional economic impact through game-related spending.
  • Tickets will be released in phases, giving first access to annual Holiday Bowl ticket holders, then an exclusive presale for SDCCU members, followed by a public sale in September.
  • The Poinsettia Bowl traces to a 1950s military exhibition and was revived as an NCAA bowl in 2005 with SDCCU as sponsor; San Diego State has appeared three times and the game last ran in San Diego in 2016.
