| *ACC adds Sun, Indy bowls for 2010-13*

GREENSBORO, N.C.(AP) -- The Atlantic Coast Conference will send
teams to the Sun and Independence bowls starting next year.
The league said Thursday it renewed six bowl deals and reached
agreements with two others for the four-year period from
2010-13.
The El Paso, Texas-based Sun Bowl matches a Pac-10 team against
either the ACC's title-game loser or its third selection after
the Bowl Championship Series. The Shreveport, La.-based
Indepedence Bowl pits the league's sixth post-BCS selection
against the Mountain West's No. 3 pick.
The league also extended deals with the Orange, Chick-fil-A,
Champs Sports, Meineke, Music City and EagleBank bowls. If an
additional ACC team is eligible, the conference will
conditionally send its eighth post-BCS pick to San Francisco's
Emerald Bowl.
