Central Florida will take on the LSU Tigers in a Fiesta Bowl showdown on New Year’s Day. The Knights come into this match, feeling very bitter, having been left out of the Playoff, even after going undefeated for the second consecutive season. LSU has something to play for as well. The Tigers are seeking their first 10-win season since 2013.
I knew there was a bowl game that I forgot about, it used to be known as the Tangerine Bowl, which was turned into the Florida Citrus Bowl in 1983. WOW !!!!…Where was I ?? Because I clearly remember the Capital One Bowl from 2001 until 2014, and then it was CompUSA, Ourhouse.com, and then it was sponsored by Buffalo Wild Wings a couple of years ago. Overton’s sponsored the game in 2018, now it is sponsored by VRBO, a vacation rental marketplace and will be hereby known as (for now) the VRBO Citrus Bowl. And out of all of the non-College Football Playoff bowl games, this game has the highest payout per team at $4.25 million. That’s more money for the Big Ten and Southeast Conferences, Now that we got the identifications out of the way, it’s time to discuss this game.
Happy New Year! The 2019 College Football season blasts off with arguably one of the best sports days of the year. Mississippi State and Iowa begin the annual cornucopia day of football with the Outback Bowl from Tampa. This will be the first-ever matchup between the Bulldogs and Hawkeyes.
A back-and-forth fun shootout occurred in last year’s Birmingham Bowl as it saw Quinton Flowers outduel Nic Shimonek with a last-second touchdown to help USF win it in a game that was up for grabs the whole night.
Josh Allen was very unknown to the national media as Wyoming didn’t play their games against high-profile teams, but Allen announced himself to the national media after throwing for three touchdowns and 154 yards capitalizing on Central Michigan’s 8 turnovers to easily blow them out 37-14 in last year’s Potato Bowl.
Hey !!!!! …Whoever came up with the incredible idea of having a bowl game in the Bahamas has to get some kind of award. We appreciate you and in the 2018 College football season has blessed the Florida International Golden Panthers and the Toledo Rockets with a ticket to paradise…kind of. Thomas A. Robinson Stadium will be rocking most definitely. These two teams last met in postseason action back in 2010 in the Little Ceasar’s Bowl, and it was a fantastic game in which FIU won on a last-second field goal.
It’s that time of the year and no I’m not talking about the season of the big fat man breaking into houses eating cookies, drinking milk, and leaving gifts under the Christmas tree. It’s Bowl season, one last chance for players hoping to enter the NFL draft to leave a lasting good impression on NFL scouts.
This year brings two different teams to the table in the Ohio Bobcats, who are 8-4 and the San Diego State Aztecs, who are 7-5. This game should be close throughout.

They will be looking to bounce back, after blowing the Conference USA Title in a 27-25 nail-biter against UAB in early December.
