What is the Military Bowl?
The Military Bowl, presented by Peraton, benefiting USO of Metropolitan Washington-Baltimore, is a post-season National Collegiate Athletic Association-sanctioned Division I college football bowl game. The game has been played annually in Annapolis since 2013 at Navy-Marine Corps Stadium.
In the 2022 Military Bowl, Duke University defeated the UCF Knights 30-13. Watch the video for highlights.
Military Bowl Foundation
For the 2022 bowl season, the Military Bowl will benefit the USO and provide at least $100,000 to the USO organization. Complimentary tickets to troops and their families will be distributed for the game through the USO of Metropolitan Washington-Baltimore in early December.
This year Military Bowl organizers and sponsors will be honoring teachers in the National Capital region. Through the College Football Playoff Foundation's Extra Yard for Teachers program, the Military Bowl provides grants to deserving teachers to use in their classrooms and for their students.
