The Farmers Bank & Trust LIVE UNITED Bowl Teams Announced

The 10th Farmers Bank & Trust LIVE UNITED BOWL game will be played Saturday, December 2nd at Texarkana Arkansas School District’s Razorback Stadium with a noon kick-off. This year will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Live United Bowl since the game was not played in 2020 because of Covid. “With a team from the Great American Conference (GAC) and a regional Division II opponent, this year’s game should prove to be a great competition says,” Jerry Huckabee, Live United Bowl committee. 

Having a first-class experience for the two universities and their fans has always been the goal of the Live United Bowl. With the feedback from participating universities over the last 10 years, the LIVE UNITED BOWL has become the premier Division II bowl game. “Calls from a number of universities are already coming in to ask if they will be considered to play in the 2023 bowl game,” says Allen Brown, President of the Live United Bowl. “This is a testament to the reputation we have built for the Live United Bowl.” 

Each team brings 90+ players coaches, and managers, and we assist with hotel accommodations and meals during their three-day visit. This is only possible because of our founding sponsor, the City of Texarkana, Arkansas A&P Commission, and our title sponsor Farmers Bank & Trust as well as the City of Texarkana, Texas through their continued support. 

Teams will arrive late afternoon on Thursday, November 30th at their hotels within the Texarkana Arkansas Crossroads Business Park. Teams will participate in local community events on both Thursday and Friday with football practice on Friday afternoon.
