College Football Bowl Season Schedule
Well college football fans, the 2010 regular season is slowly starting to wind down with just two weekends of action remaining. It’s been another entertaining and exciting year even with all the storm clouds of scandal that have rained on the sport over the last few months.
The fun part is that even though we’re so deep into the season, there’s still a lot of mystery and uncertainty surrounding where every team will ultimately end up when all is said and done.
Things are far from set in stone at this point, but that doesn’t mean we can’t take an early look at the postseason.
For college football fans, there’s no better holiday treat than bowl season and this year we’ve got 35 bowl games to munch on.
The fun starts on December 18th when the New Mexico Bowl kicks off and it extends all the way to January 10th, the night of the National Title game out in the Arizona desert.
Let’s take a look at the full schedule of games on tap for bowl season.
