In a thrilling announcement, Fenway Park will once again host the Fenway Bowl, this time featuring a matchup between the University of Connecticut and North Carolina football teams on December 28. This marks the second consecutive year that a New England team will play at Fenway, following Boston College’s victory over Southern Methodist in the previous year’s game. The highly anticipated event will be nationally televised on ESPN and ESPN+ and tickets are available on the Fenway Bowl’s website.
UConn, under the guidance of coach Jim Mora, is coming off a successful season with an 8-4 record, their first winning season since 2010. On the other side, North Carolina, led by interim coach Freddie Kitchens after firing Mack Brown, finished the regular season 6-6 and secured a bowl game for the sixth consecutive year. The game promises to be an exciting matchup between two talented teams in the iconic setting of Fenway Park, providing fans with a memorable experience.
