I guess the new rule could put to bed thoughts of a second bowl in Atlanta, unless perhaps the new Braves stadium would like to host one.

Georgia Dome is not a "access game" host. They are free to hold as many bowls as they wish.

Am I misunderstanding what you mean by access bowls? Also Georgia Dome will only be the home for a few more years...

Starting with the 2014 season, the game will feature College Football Playoff matchups, with the 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025 games featuring a national semifinal, and the playoff selection committee selecting the matchup in other years.[3] It has been reported that the new playoff system will require the game's name to be changed back to Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl for consistency with the other playoff bowls.[4][5] However, it is still called Chick-fil-A Bowl by both its own website and the playoff system website.[6]

It had to be someone associated with the New Orleans Bowl that would have erased the reference of the move from the New Orleans Bowl listing on wikipedia. I'm surprised that it was kept a secret for this long. They've been knowing about this since at least April.

This is probably the only time you will hear this so nicely but I'm really glad that Tulane is going bowling and even better that we get to play you guys in the Superdome. Should be one of the biggest crowds for a non BCS game. Good luck.
