But will it be called the "Rose" Bowl?

With local and regional health statutes preventing fans from being in attendance, the College Football Playoff semifinal at the Rose Bowl has been moved to AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The move, announced Saturday evening by the Pasadena Tournament of Roses, is a result of a "growing number of COVID-19 cases in Southern California along with the inability to host player and coach guests at any game in California."
The semifinal will still be played on Jan. 1, two days after the Cotton Bowl, but it's unclear whether it will still be called the "Rose Bowl". Unlike other college football postseason games, the Rose Bowl is a part of the Master License Agreement and co-owned by the Pasadena Tournament of Roses and the City of Pasadena.
...
Momentum to move the game picked up in recent days. Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly expressed his dismay at the prospect of playing without parents being able to attend, going so far as to indicate his team may boycott the game. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney expressed a similar sentiment.

The Chili Bowl? Taco Bowl? Guacamole Bowl?

Yet something else fleeing California (or New York) for Texas.
I dunno. Maybe the "Nopalisos Bowl." Standing for No Pansy Liberal Socialists.
They'll think we confused it with "Nopalitos." Or that it's it's some word from the days of the Republic of Texas...

They should call it the Chief Tootsie Wootsie Bowl with that group.
