This college football season has been astounding thus far and the playoffs will only solidify that fact. In recent news, Baker Mayfield has won the Heisman trophy. Mayfield and his Sooners will play in the Rose Bowl on New Years Day.

This bowl season there are 40 bowl games to be played, beginning December 16th and go until January 8th. Over the past couple of years the most popular games to watch have been the Rose Bowl, the Sugar Bowl, and lastly the Cotton Bowl. Throughout the school the popular bowl game to tune into is the Rose Bowl.

One of the most interesting rivalries in college football to watch is Alabama vs. Clemson who this year play in the Sugar Bowl. The past two years they’ve competed in the National Championship, Alabama winning two years ago and Clemson winning last year. This year another great game to tune into will be the Rose Bowl which features Oklahoma and Georgia. The winner of the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl will go to the National Championship game which is the most prestigious college football game.
