Drew Montag's 2009-2010 College Football Bowl Challenge Cup (as of 01/08/2010 09:02:37)

Please check out my States Challenge Cup lists for the following seasons:

Apparently, ABC/ESPN stopped sponsoring their "Bowl Challenge Cup" after just one season (2002-2003).

I looked, but I couldn't find it anywhere on ESPN.com or ABCSports.com.

However, ESPN is keeping track of the standings, and running them along the bottom of their video feed periodically. They don't appear to have a Web site, though.

I did find a few references to it on the Cooper Tires site, but they don't show any results or standings.

This contest compares the winning percentages for each of the conferences in the bowl games, with a minimum of 3 teams required. Since they didn't keep it up, I'll do it for them.

Here are the Bowl Challenge Cup lists for other seasons:
