Bowl Game Agreement Completed

The football champion of the Western Athletic Conference will play in the Holiday Bowl through 1992 under terms of a new contract between the conference and the bowl, it was announced Tuesday.

The announcement, at a news conference at San Diego Jack Murphy Stadium, confirmed details of the agreement that had been reported early last month. The contract replaced an earlier agreement that would have allowed the bowl to invite two at-large teams to this year’s game Dec. 30 at Jack Murphy Stadium.
