The college football bowl season will be ratcheted up another notch on Friday afternoon, as we kickoff the New Year’s Six games and some of the premier matchups outside of the College Football Playoff.
No. 22 Clemson takes on Kentucky in the Gator Bowl to begin the day in Jacksonville in a hard-nosed matchup of teams that will try to grind the opponent into submission on the ground.
No. 19 Oregon State enters the Sun Bowl in El Paso with an interim coaching staff following the departure of Jonathan Smith to Michigan State, as the Beavers take on No. 16 Notre Dame that will be without quarterback Sam Hartman and top offensive lineman Joe Alt, who both opted out of the contest.
