In a move pretty much anyone with a brain could see coming from 10,000 miles away, it appears the Las Vegas Bowl is primed to make a major jump up in the Pac-12’s selection order in 2020, according to Stadium’s Brett McMurphy.
Currently being played in UNLV’s Sam Boyd Stadium, the game is expected to move up to the third selection with the opening of the Raiders’ new NFL stadium in 18 months. (It currently is the sixth selection.) The game would kick off a six-year contract in which the SEC and Big Ten would play in the game three times each.
