NEW ORLEANS -- The Sun Belt Conference announced Tuesday that it has signed agreements with the St. Petersburg Bowl, the Papajohns.com Bowl and the PetroSun Independence Bowl.
The announcement came at the Sun Belt's annual football media days.
The agreements are effective immediately and will affect the 2008 and 2009 bowl games.
The terms call for bowl-eligible teams from the Sun Belt Conference to be the first available teams in these bowls if other conferences cannot fulfill their requirements.
