Radio
x – In 2014, the Miami Beach Bowl didn't provide a national radio carrier. As a result, both local schools broadcasts were made available through the regular platforms. The only nationwide broadcast available was the Cougar IMG Sports Network simulcast on BYU Radio – nationwide on Sirius XM 143, Dish Network 980, and byuradio.org. In 2015 Touchdown Radio Productions picked up the rights to air the game nationwide. However, in 2016 the bowl was back to local stations only.
