Aztec Bowl

The Aztec Bowl is an NCAA-sanctioned college division/minor (prior to 1973) or Division III (since 1973) post-season bowl game that has been played intermitently since at least 1950.

With but one exception, all of the 31 games played from 1950-2003 have been played at locations in Mexico; the exception was the 1957 game played in San Antonio, Texas. Since 1997, under sponsorship of the American Football Coaches Association, the bowl has featured a team of Division III All-Stars against a team of Mexican All-Stars.

Games played in 1952, 1965, and 1996 are considered junior college bowl games, and games played in 1970 and 1980 are considered military bowl games; these are not listed here. No games were played in 1954, 1956, 1958-1963, 1967-1969, 1972-1978, 1981-1983, 1985, and 1995. The games are traditionally played in mid-December.
