History
The "Yankee" bowl was announced by the New York Yankees' then-minority owner Hal Steinbrenner, New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg, Big East commissioner John Marinatto, and Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe at a Yankee Stadium press conference on September 30, 2009. The last bowl in New York City proper was the Gotham Bowl pitted Miami against Nebraska at the original Yankee Stadium in 1962. The bowl paired the fourth-place team from The American against the seventh-place team from the Big 12 Conference, with each conference agreeing to a four-year contract that runs through the 2013 season. In the event the Big 12 lacks an eligible team, Notre Dame will receive its invitation.
On March 9, 2010, the Yankee bowl official name was announced to be the Pinstripe Bowl with New Era Cap Company agreed to sponsor the bowl for four years while ESPN agreed to broadcast the bowl for six years. The inaugural game was played on December 30, 2010. With the NCAA certification approved in April 2010, the Pinstripe Bowl is the 35th bowl on the calendar.
Initially a matchup between the Big 12 and the Big East (which became The American), the matchup will pit an Atlantic Coast Conference team against a Big Ten team starting in 2014, the same year Rutgers University, the only FBS school in the NYC area, moves to the Big Ten from The American. The ACC agreed to a six year deal with the Big Ten agreed to the alignment for 8 years. The ACC has adopted a tiered system so the same conference position will not necessarily go to the same bowl and agreed to the affiliation for six years. ESPN.com quoted sources that 3rd through 6th bowl eligible teams would be tiered with the Pinstripe, Belk, Sun, Gator and Music City bowls.
