ECAC Bowl
The ECAC Bowl is a series of college football bowl games organised by the Eastern College Athletic Conference in NCAA Divisions I and III. The D-I series ran from 1993 to 2003, while the D-III games have been held since 1983.
Division I game
From 1993 until its cancellation in 2003, the game pitted the champion of the Northeast Conference against the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference champion. All games were played on campus sites.All games involved a team from either New York State or Pennsylvania, and only the 1997 game, hosted by Georgetown University, did not take place in either one of those states. At the time, the NEC and MAAC were two of three conferences that did not have an automatic bid into the I Football Championship">NCAA Division I">I Football Championship but had not voluntarily abstained from the tournament; the conferences were notable in that they did not offer football scholarships. The Northeast Conference edged the MAAC in all-time results, with NEC members winning six of the ten games.
By 2003, several of the MAAC universities were closing down their football teams, and the ECAC Bowl was likewise shuttered; this contraction eventually led to the conference's dropping of the sport in 2007. From 2006-2009, the NEC champion instead participated in the Gridiron Classic against the Pioneer Football League champion. The NEC was awarded an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament in 2010, with the PFL receiving their bid in 2013.

The ECAC introduced in 1983 two Division III football bowl games: The Metro NY/NJ and the New England bowls. In 1984 they were renamed to North and South, and in 1991 they were expanded to two games per region: Northeast, Northwest, Southeast and Southwest bowls. In 2002 they were expanded to three games per region, with an additional game per region if there were enough qualifying teams: Northeast, Northwest, North Atlantic, Southeast, Southwest, South Atlantic, North Central and South Central.Format was changed in 2015 so all the teams played at a single site over three days, and names were changed to: Asa S.
