Before everybody and their brother went to the playoffs or a bowl game, most college football teams ended their season by Thanksgiving. The 1950 bowl season, for example, had the Rose, Orange, Sugar, Cotton, and Sun, and the Gator, Tangerine, Salad, and Raisin Bowls. The limited number of college team bowl games meant the holidays could host an all-star classic like the North-South All-Star game, scheduled for December 26, 1949, at Burdine Stadium (aka the Orange Bowl).
