Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium

December 30, 2010 will be the date of the first ever Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium. The bowl will feature the number three team in the Big East and the number six team in the Big 12. 

This will be the first bowl game to take place at Yankee Stadium since 1962. 

“Football’s always been a love of my dad: he played it, he coached it,” Hal Steinbrenner told The Star Ledger. “We made it a point when we built this stadium to ensure it was a year-round, multi-sport venue, and it will be that. There is more to come. Football is going to be a big part of it in 2010, and football’s going to be a big part of it in the years to come.”
