Blog - 4 - The Bowl Season Begins
5/4/15-Author: Tali
We have created a list below for all the bowl games: who is playing; where; when; and which network it will be on.
Which games will you watch and why? (Comment via the button after the table.)
This editor will watch the following bowls: Rose Bowl; Discover Orange Bowl; Russel Athletic Bowl; Chick-fil-A Bowl; and the VIZIO BCS National Championship. I am watching the Orange Bowl because I am a life-long Buckeye; the Rose Bowl because I am a Big Ten Fan; the Russel Athletic Bowl because I want to see Teddy Bridgewater play; and the Chick-fil-A Bowl because I want to see Johnny Manziel play.
I will watch the National Championship because it is the National Championship. However, quite frankly, I would much prefer a 16 team playoff vs. this bowl system: VOTE.
