 The Seattle Times: Sports: Bowl organizers seek NCAA's OK   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
They hope to revive a postseason game at Seahawks Stadium, a concept that began with the first Seattle Bowl in 2001, continued in 2002 but died a quiet death when certification was denied last spring.
That, combined with the uncertainty over whether the game here would even be certified again, he said, led his bowl to OK the name change (which it traded for a year's extension of the sponsorship).
The suit alleges the NCAA, in its bowl certification process, fosters "anti-competitive effects." It contends the required payout of $750,000 prevented Aloha Sports from negotiating payouts based on factors like desirability of playing in Hawaii, and claims the requirement of a winning record kept the University of Hawaii out of the game, thus crimping attendance.
