College football’s bowl season began on Friday with the Bahamas Bowl and Cure Bowl, with seven more on Saturday, as the first of a series of 43 postseason games through December. The run will culminate on Jan. 9 with the National Championship Game of the College Football Playoffs at SoFi Stadium, home of the LA Rams and LA Chargers and last year’s Super Bowl.
The CFP, which fields the nation’s top four seeded teams, begins its semifinals on Dec. 31 when Michigan plays TCU in the Fiesta Bowl and No. 1 game, and defending champion Georgia vs. Ohio State in the Peach Bowl, with the winners battling for the title game in LA
SoFi is hosting a few games this year, with the Jimmy Kimmel Bowl today (December 17) in Washington and Fresno states. There are seven games today, the first Saturday of the bowling season.
The other big bowl day is Monday, January 2nd with the Citrus Bowl, Cotton Bowl and Rose Bowl in Pasadena, the latter starting after the annual Rose Bowl parade.
Below is the complete bowl schedule including fixtures, times, locations and networks. Games on ESPN, ESPN 2 and ABC can also be streamed through the ESPN app and Fox games can be streamed through the Fox Sports app.
