Although the bowl has a tie-in with the American Athletic Conference, due to UCF receiving a bid to the Fiesta Bowl—a New Year's Six bowl—the conference was unable to provide a team.[5] Thus, bowl organizers sought at-large teams, and announced a matchup of the Ohio Bobcats of the Mid-American Conference (MAC) against the San Diego State Aztecs of the Mountain West Conference.[6] This was the first meeting between the two programs.[7]
Ohio received and accepted a bid to the Frisco Bowl on December 2.[6] The Bobcats entered the bowl with an 8–4 record (6–2 in conference), having won 5-of-6 to close their regular season.
