It’s a great way to say goodbye to 2023, sitting in the sunbathed stadium to watch two exciting teams, Notre Dame and Oregon State.
By now, the teams have been in El Paso for a few days and have gotten to know our friendly people and hospitality. They have gotten a taste of some of the great things about El Paso, from dining at Cattleman’s at Cliff’s Ranch and seeing our talented folklórico dancers to visiting with Fort Bliss officers.
And those staying at home can still see the Sun Bowl game on TV. Fans have been able to see snippets of the Sun City through televised games since 1964, with NBC broadcasting the first game. CBS has televised the Sun Bowl since 1968.
All that’s left is game day! Here is what to know about the big game.
