NBC is set to reignite some of the nation's greatest college and university rivalries in the ultimate battle of brains in Capital One College Bowl. Hosted by Peyton Manning, with his brother Cooper Manning serving as sidekick, the series challenges college students out of the classroom and puts their knowledge to the test as they compete for academic scholarships.
The series is a reboot of the classic Emmy and Peabody Award-winning College Bowl that previously aired on NBC in the U.S., and for decades has been part of campus life at colleges and universities around the world.
In each episode, teams of three representing some of the nation's top schools will battle it out in a bracketed tournament over four rounds. Teams must work together to answer questions on a wide variety of subjects. The top two schools advance to the final where they compete head-to-head for the Capital One College Bowl trophy and a scholarship to put toward their education.
In partnership with Capital One, all competitors will receive tuition assistance for participating in the series, but members from the winning team will take home an even bigger scholarship in addition to becoming the "Capital One College Bowl" champions. Capital One is providing a total of $1 million in scholarships to participants, including special recognition for the series' Capital One Merit Award recipients. The Capital One Merit Award will be given to four students who have made an impact outside of the competition in recognition of their proven character, leadership abilities, and involvement in extracurricular activities that benefit the community. Capital One serves as an integral partner for the series ensuring no student will go home empty-handed.
