Today the college football bowl season kicks off right here in Horry County with the inaugural Myrtle Beach Bowl.
The Appalachian State Mountaineers from the Sun Belt Conference will face the Mean Green of North Texas from Conference USA. Both teams accepted their bowl bids on Dec. 13. I am most excited for the game itself, obviously, said Rachel Quigley, executive director of the Myrtle Beach Bowl.Â
Quigley noted that this year has been challenging and has placed some unique roadblocks in the way. Nevertheless, the Myrtle Beach Bowl will kick off at 2:30 p.m. and so will the 2020-21 college bowl season.
