Plot Synopsis

The ReliaQuest Bowl is a college football game that is typically played on New Year's Day featuring teams from the SEC and Big Ten Conference (or ACC if a Big Ten team goes to the Orange Bowl). The ReliaQuest Bowl started as the Hall of Fame Bowl, following a joint proposal in April 1986 for a new bowl game by the Tampa Bowl Task Force and the National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame. The NFL Foundation had previously sponsored a Hall of Fame Bowl in Birmingham, AL, but ended that relationship in 1984 while the bowl game continued in Birmingham with another sponsor. Outback Steakhouse became the next title/name sponsor in April 1995, with the game called the Outback Bowl from 1996 through 2022.
