Former UT QB Colt McCoy of the Cleveland Browns will coach Team Spike and Giants QB Eli Manning will coach Team Palladia HD.
The teams will compete two 20-minute halves on more than 1 million pounds of imported sand. The action begins at 1:30pm with a pre-game show hosted by Dan Patrick and Kevin Frazier. The Beach Bowl will kick off at 2:30 with the action being called by Dan Patrick, Nancy O'Dell and Tony Siragusa. Get there early because it's expected to be a capacity crowd.
Immediately following the game and trophy presentation, the crowd will be allowed out on the beach for a concert featuring Grammy award-winning Maroon 5.
The game will be broadcast on DIRECTV channel 101 and Fox Sports Net. For the first time, this year's game will be shown in 3-D on DIRECTV n3D powered by Panasonic.
