The bowl schedule is set - aside from the CFP, which bowl games are you looking forward to?
First, we still have Army-Navy next Saturday which is always of interest.
Now for the post-season, here is the full bowl schedule: https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/2022-23-college-football-bowl-schedule-games-scores-dates-tv-channels-kickoff-times-locations/

Looks like I'm a little late on the non-CFP bowl thread, although I will contend that mine is better nyah nyah
December 4th, 2022 at 4:52 PM ^
Your post is far superior since you took the time to actually list the bowl games.
Although you missed one of interest: ND vs South Carolina in the Gator Bowl. Go Cocks.
And I know I just posted this in another thread, but it’s so good I’m going to repeat myself:
December 4th, 2022 at 5:10 PM ^
Gator Bowl: Catholics vs. Cocks
December 4th, 2022 at 5:20 PM ^
Too bad South Carolina isn't playing Washington, then we'd have the Cocks against Penix.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:21 PM ^
It must have been a fun meme time when Washington played Oregon State.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:29 PM ^
Oregon State against South Carolina, or the ever-classic USC vs USC matchup, featuring the Cocks vs the Trojans.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:34 PM ^
I've always enjoyed the annual Beavers vs Trojans tilt, myself...
December 4th, 2022 at 6:17 PM ^
I always take Trojans to cover.
December 4th, 2022 at 6:40 PM ^
Bend but don't break!!!
December 5th, 2022 at 10:21 AM ^
99% reliable except when the Trojan's defense breaks.
December 5th, 2022 at 10:30 AM ^
You mean when it leaks?
December 4th, 2022 at 6:24 PM ^
I see the documentary is on some streaming service called PornHub this time. I woulda figured ESPN Classic but hey! I don’t work in tv right?!
December 4th, 2022 at 5:52 PM ^
Can't tell if this would have been even funnier if he'd incorporated Maryland going to the Duke's Mayo Bowl.
December 4th, 2022 at 4:49 PM ^
In Sparty's game, you think Thorne has what it takes to connect on the 7/10 split?
December 4th, 2022 at 6:38 PM ^
Tuck it Dude, let’s not go bowling.
December 4th, 2022 at 4:53 PM ^
Looks like PSU's investment is paying off. No, no it's really not. Though the Rose is quite the consolation gift.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:16 PM ^
PSU vs Utah should be a good matchup.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:54 PM ^
Utah should have beat the Buckeyes last year. I’m sure Frames will find a way to lose.
December 5th, 2022 at 10:31 AM ^
That's actually the only one on the list that looks worth watching. (But, of course, I'll probably watch a dozen of them. )
December 4th, 2022 at 4:55 PM ^
I really want to see how Michigan Sta ...
Never mind.
December 4th, 2022 at 6:04 PM ^
I think Staee made the "Al's Muffler and Brake" bowl. I believe it's played in Gary Indiana against the first runner-up High School playoff team.
December 4th, 2022 at 4:56 PM ^
I like the way Utah plays football.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:00 PM ^
Not a bowl game but looking forward to watching Army Navy.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:16 PM ^
I like that it gets all the attention to itself. It's a pure college football throwback tradition that is timeless.
It's like a reenactment of the early days of college football, but it's real. Like if they had a Civil War reenactment and let them actually shoot at each other.
It's one of my favorite games of the year, especially when it comes down to the last plays in the 4th quarter in dramatic snow.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:23 PM ^
M-Dog, I highly respect your comments and contributions but damn man.
Reenacting a real Civil War where we lost more soldiers in that war than all of the other wars combined and has scarred this nation to this day is not something to want to replicate.
December 4th, 2022 at 4:57 PM ^
I must have missed it. What bowl game is MSU in this year?
December 4th, 2022 at 5:17 PM ^
I believe they’re in the Goodwill Furniture Section Slightly Stained Love Seat Bowl vs a case of Natty Light and crippling depression.
Slight underdogs at -3.5. Should be a good game.
December 4th, 2022 at 9:37 PM ^
Or the Wallowing Bowl of self-destruction and Michigan paranoid hate-mongering.
December 5th, 2022 at 10:33 AM ^
Actually, i thought they're in the Tidy Bowl, played in Columbus, OH (IO).
December 4th, 2022 at 5:38 PM ^
CriminaBowl. Football isn't involved but stress is.
December 4th, 2022 at 4:57 PM ^
Iowa/Kentucky, because I need a nap.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:06 PM ^
That’s going to be spectacular.
December 4th, 2022 at 8:59 PM ^
Positively "Puntabulous"!
December 4th, 2022 at 4:58 PM ^
Well my wife went to Tulane and her dad went to Southern Cal so 12/31 is going to be a riot.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:11 PM ^
Bet they never in 100 years would have expected their Alma matters to play one another in a bowl game.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:36 PM ^
Weird is the norm in college football. Thirty years ago I thought Michigan and Rutgers had nothing to do with each other. Now they're one of our top rivals, we play them every year, and one of the schools has to fence stuff in preparation each year for the game. Unpredictable through and through.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:54 PM ^
Tulane will "hang a hundred" on USC.
December 4th, 2022 at 6:16 PM ^
I'm just glad Tulane went back to using the fighting green wave holding a megaphone logo. Uniquely awesome.
December 4th, 2022 at 7:43 PM ^
My second favorite helmet. That wave is awesome.
December 5th, 2022 at 7:32 AM ^
To me it looks like a rebel teenage Xmas tree with blue hair 😅
December 4th, 2022 at 4:58 PM ^
I'm pissed that major bowl games are moved to January 2nd. I always start driving back from Michigan on that day.
I'm gonna need to talk to a supervisor.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:00 PM ^
It won’t get any national attention, but Chris Creighton has done a great job at Eastern Michigan. Gotta be one of the hardest schools to recruit to in the country.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:07 PM ^
Tough draw for them going all the way out to Boise, given they had a particularly good season. But they’ve never been to that game before, so I guess it’s their turn.
SJSU had one of their better seasons this year, it’ll be a step up from the usual MAC diet but they’re also beatable.
December 4th, 2022 at 10:30 PM ^
If I remember correctly, SJSU murdered WMU earlier this year, hopefully the emus fare better.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:00 PM ^
Alamo Bowl always seems to have a fun matchup to watch. Texas and Washington could be a really good game.
December 4th, 2022 at 5:14 PM ^
Random factoid: Darrell Royal was head coach at Washington for one season in 1956, and then left Seattle to take over the Texas job in ‘57.
December 4th, 2022 at 6:35 PM ^
I wonder if the broadcast will tell us that 100 times?
December 4th, 2022 at 5:00 PM ^
I always look forward to the Rose Bowl. PSU v Utah is a nice matchup. Rose Bowl colors will look cool. Like the Orange Bowl matchup, two opposing styles. ND v South Carolina is nice. I like blue blood matchups so Oklahoma v FSU will be a watcher.
December 4th, 2022 at 6:56 PM ^
Is FSU a blue blood?
December 4th, 2022 at 8:15 PM ^
Yes. Powder blue. Not navy blue.
