Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl

The Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl, formerly the Insight Bowl, is an NCAA college football bowl game that has been played since 1989. The game is one of several games that takes place prior to New Year's Day.

Since its inception, the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl has been played in the state of Arizona at three separate venues. For the first ten years, the game was played at Arizona Stadium, on the campus of the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona. In 2000, the bowl's organizers moved the game to Bank One Ballpark, a baseball-specific stadium, in downtown Phoenix. Finally, in 2006, the game moved to Sun Devil Stadium at Arizona State University in Tempe to replace the Fiesta Bowl which had moved to University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale.

The game was formerly known as the Copper Bowl from 1989 until 1996 when sponsorship and naming rights were assumed by Insight Enterprises and it became the Insight.com Bowl (1997 to 2001), and then the Insight Bowl. The 2012 edition of the game has a new sponsor name, as Insight Enterprises has opted not to renew its title sponsorship with the game. It has featured teams from the WAC, the Big 12, the Big East and Pac 10. Starting in 2006, the Insight Bowl began featuring an annual matchup between teams from the Big Ten and the Big 12.

The 2006 game saw the biggest comeback in NCAA Division I FBS postseason history, as Texas Tech came back from a 38–7 third-quarter deficit to defeat Minnesota 44–41 in overtime.

For the first three playings of the Copper Bowl, TBS carried the game. Beginning in 1992 and continuing until the 2005 playing (by which time the game had become the Insight.com and then Insight Bowl), the game aired on ESPN. After a four-year hiatus, during which NFL Network carried the game, ESPN regained the rights beginning in 2010.
