Sugar Bowl
It's Popularity through the years gave the Sugar Bowl the honors of becoming a part of the BCS championship series, an honor that only five college bowl games can claim. This helps the Sugar Bowl bring in the best-of-the-best in college football each year.
As one of the four host venues for the Bowl Championship Series (BCS), and as a holiday-time tradition dating back to 1935, the Sugar Bowl, or Allstate Sugar Bowl as it was renamed in 2006, is very familiar to American sports fans. Every year the top college team of the South Eastern Conference (SEC), a highly ranked challenger from another major conference, and thousands of happy ticket-holders look forward to New Year's festivities in New Orleans culminating in a gridiron battle at the Louisiana Superdome, joined by millions more in the TV audience.
Originally, the Sugar Bowl?s sponsor was the USF&G Financial Services (from 1987 to 1995), later, Nokia cellular telephones of Finland (from 1995 to 2006). In March of 2006 the new sponsor became the Allstate Insurance Company.

Born in the depths of the depression, the Sugar Bowl has survived many difficulties and today ranks as one of the most uniquely successful amateur athletic achievements in the history of American sports.
The New Orleans Mid-Winter Sports Association actually became a reality when, in late October 1934, it was able to announce it had in escrow the sum of $30,000 for the promotion of the inaugural Sugar Bowl Football Classic.
The idea of a New Year's Day football classic in New Orleans was first presented in 1927 by Colonel James M. Thomson, publisher of the New Orleans Item, and Sports Editor Fred Digby.
As for the Sugar Bowl game itself, its only rightful home is the Louisiana Superdome. In the midst of the city's historical downtown district stands this world-class, state-of-the-art facility that makes New Orleans one of sporting America's favorite venues. This structure, site of six NFL Super Bowl's and four NCAA Final Fours, comfortably seats more than 72,000 fans and houses some of the finest stadium amenities in the world.
As a result of the many treasures the Nokia Sugar Bowl and the city of New Orleans have to offer, the Bowl was one of four selected by the commissioners of the country's major football conferences to rotate the BCS national championship game. Along with the Federal Express Orange Bowl, Tostitos Fiesta Bowl and the Rose Bowl, the Nokia Sugar Bowl continues to lay claim to its position as a leader in the bowl industry.
The Sugar Bowl hosted the NCAA National Championship last year, one that didn't feature the No. 1 team in America, thanks to the BCS. LSU kept Oklahoma's offense at bay with a dominating defense and an ability to overcome their mistakes for a 21-14 victory and a share of the National Championship with USC.
Played in New Orleans, LSU has taken advantage of home field advantage before last year. In 2002, they blew out the Fighting Illini with a 47-34 victory in the Louisiana Superdome. Blowouts are common in the Sugar Bowl. The 2004 National Championship was the first game to be decided by a score or less since 1995.
The Sugar Bowl was born during the Great Depression, when New Orleans decided to raise money to host a prominent football game. In 1935, Temple jumped out to a 14-0 lead, but Temple came back to win 20-14.
Since then, the Sugar Bowl has taken place in every single year, even commencing through the War Years.
