UPDATE - Orange Bowl will definitely be played in Land Shark Stadium

Good news, everybody. The Orange Bowl will be played in a stadium with a name, after all.
A couple days ago, I was under the impression the Land Shark Stadium name of the Miami Gardens, Fla., stadium would be gone after the final Miami Dolphins' regular-season game, on Jan. 3.
That's wrong. From Larry Wahl of the Orange Bowl:
When the deal was announced, the Dolphin organization announced that the deal would be through the final Dolphin game (including playoffs) or the FedEx Orange Bowl, whichever was later. What was made clear was that for the Super Bowl and Pro Bowl (both of which are here this year), it would revert back to Dolphin Stadium.
And that is the rest of the story.
