Tulane Stadium, also known as the "Sugar Bowl", hosted the game from
1935 through 1974. It has been played in the Louisiana Superdome since.
The Sugar Bowl's corporate title sponsor was USF&G Financial Services
from 1987 to 1995 and Nokia cellular telephones of Finland from 1995 to
the present. ABC Sports has televised the game since 1969, however
beginning in 2007 FOX Sports will televise the game.
The 2006 Sugar Bowl game was played at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta,
Georgia due to the extensive damage the Louisiana Superdome suffered as
a result of Hurricane Katrina. Preliminary plans call for the Sugar Bowl
to return to a refurbished Superdome in 2007.
Prior to the BCS, the game traditionally hosted the Southeastern
Conference champion against a top-tier at-large opponent. In years it
does not host the BCS title game and the SEC champion is not involved in
the title game, the Sugar Bowl has the option to select that team.
