C-USA didn't announce but some media partners did.
C-USA will have 7 bids in the 2020-2025 cycle. We will have one team play all 6 years in the New Orleans Bowl, and the other 6 contractual bids will be given to the "ESPN Events" bowl pool. ESPN Events own 16 bowls, and the other 6 bowl teams will be free to be placed in any of these 16 bowls to "create the most desirable matchups."
The ESPN Events bowls are as follows:
Fenway Park (promised as ACC vs AAC)
Birmingham (promised as SEC vs AAC)
Gasparilla (promised as SEC vs AAC)
Famous Idaho Potato (promised as MWC vs MAC)
Hawaii (1 spot guaranteed to MWC)
New Mexico (1 spot guaranteed to MWC)
Bahamas (1 spot guaranteed to MAC)
Cure
Myrtle Beach
Frisco
Texas
Las Vegas
Armed Forces
First Responder
Boca Raton
Camellia
For the "non-guaranteed" spots, they will be divided as follows:
C-USA = 6 spots
MAC = 5 spots
Sun Belt = 5 spots
MWC = 1 spot
AAC = 2 spots
So, basically, we will have 1 team in New Orleans Bowl and 6 others will go to one of these 12 games, basically at ESPN's desire (Hawaii, New Mexico, Bahamas, Cure, Myrtle Beach, Frisco, Texas, Las Vegas, Armed Forces, First Responder, Boca Raton, Camellia).

Great post but you included the Las Vegas Bowl in there
A long time MWC vs PAC Bowl
Next year LV Bowl: PAC #2 vs Big 10 or SEC.

Thank you for the update.
Just one slight correction on ESPN Bowls. If the ACC has team available "Technically 10th Slot" it will be in either Gasparilla, Birmingham or First Responder bowl. The idea it will be normally if there is a 11th or 12th team available for the ESPN Pool.
Independence really should lock CUSA in since they are not ESPN.
