BCS National Championship Game
The BCS National Championship Game or BCS title game is the final bowl game of the annual Bowl Championship Series and is intended by Series organizers to determine the NCAA Division I FBS National Football Championship. The game was first played at the conclusion of the 1998 College Football season after the Big Ten and Pac 10 conferences and the Rose Bowl Game joined the members of the former "Bowl Alliance" to form the Bowl Championship Series. The Bowl Alliance and its predecessor, the Bowl Coalition, featured championship games from 1992 through 1997.
Rose Bowl Facts and Information
In 1902, the Tournament of Roses® Association decided to improve the day's festivities by adding a football game. Stanford University accepted the request to take on the powerhouse University of Michigan , but the west coast team was crushed 49-0 and gave up in the third quarter. The lopsided score encouraged the Tournament to give up football in favor of Roman-style chariot races.
In 1916, football returned to stay and the crowds soon outgrew the stands in Tournament Park . William L. Leishman, the Tournament's 1920 President, envisioned a stadium similar to the Yale Bowl, the first huge modern football stadium. He enlisted the help of designer Myron Hunt and builder William A Taylor, and mutually they made plans for a stadium in Pasadena 's Arroyo Seco area.
Rose Bowl Stadium Construction in 1922
The new Rose Bowl stadium, a 57,000-seat horseshoe open on the south end, cost $272,198.26. The Tournament financed the scheme by offering ten-year subscription tickets for $100 each. Once it was completed, it was deeded to the city of Pasadena .
Local newspaper writer Harlan "Dusty" Hall, who also served as the Tournament's press agent, came up with the name "Rose Bowl" for the stadium, and on January 1, 1923, the Tournament held its first football game there.
