The Graphic Edge Bowl
The ICCAC, along with primary sponsor The Graphic Edge, puts on two annual bowl games the first Sunday of December at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls. The two games feature the top two teams from the ICCAC versus at-large qualifiers. If one of the Iowa teams has qualified for the NJCAA national championship game, the "feature" game becomes the national championship game if the best Iowa team is ranked No. 1. If the best Iowa team is ranked No. 2, the third-best Iowa team takes its place in the Graphic Edge Bowl. It's possible for both Iowa teams to have losing records in this case as the NJCAA does not require a team to have a winning record to qualify for a bowl game.
The now-defunct Midwest Football Conference, which featured as many as 10 teams from Iowa, Illinois, Michigan and North Dakota sent the champions of each of its divisions unless one of them qualified for the national championship game as the No. 2-ranked team, in which case another Midwest Football Conference team qualified for the bowl in its place.
The second-best Iowa team plays one of the at-large teams in the first game, which kicks off at 11 a.m. The best Iowa team plays another at-large team in the 2:30 p.m. "Feature" game, which can be for the NJCAA title if the Iowa team is ranked No. 1 and the No. 2 team is able to accept a bid to the game.
The two at-large bids vary from year-to-year, but recent tendency is that the 11 a.m. game features one of the better teams from the MCAC (Minnesota College Athletic Conference) and that the later game features a highly-ranked opponent.
