Cotton Bowl, postseason americká vysokoškolská fotbalová hra na americký fotbal hrající na Silvestra nebo na Nový rok v Arlingtonu v Texasu.
Cotton Bowl vytvořil Dallas Oilman J. Curtis Sanford. První hra byla hrána v 1937. Po hře 1940, skupina Dallas občanů získala kontrolu nad hrou a jmenovala sebe Cotton Bowl atletická asociace, který později ten rok se stal agenturou Southwest konference. Byla to jediná mísová hra ovládaná a provozovaná jedinou atletickou konferencí až do rozpuštění Jihozápadní konference v roce 1996. Dříve jedna ze čtyř nejprestižnějších misijních her, bavlněná mísa ztratila tento status v 90. letech, kdy koalice College Bowl a poté mísa Championship Series (BCS) ji nahradil Fiesta Bowl. V roce 2014 se opět stala jednou z předních misijních her v zemi, když byla zahrnuta do rotace šesti misek (spolu s miskami Fiesta, Orange, Peach, Rose a Sugar), kde se konaly semifinále playoff College Football Playoff..
