The excitement for an expanded, 12-team College Football Playoff has been palpable. But let’s not forget about all the non-playoff bowl games, either.
The NCAA bowl season features 35 non-playoff bowl games from mid-December through early January. It’s an onslaught of action before college football is shuttered for the year — so don’t miss out.
Check out the college football bowl schedule and betting notes for the action, which runs from Dec. 14 through Jan 4.

NCAAF betting notes
- If you stop Cam Skattebo, you stop the Sun Devils. Skattebo has 22 TDs and over 2,000 scrimmage yards this season. No other ASU player has more than five TDs or 515 scrimmage yards. Skattebo is up against a daunting task, as the Longhorns defence ranks No. 2 in scoring (13.3 PPG) and yards allowed (261.4/game).
- It’s a rematch at the Rose Bowl, as Ohio State looks to avenge a one-point road loss against Oregon from Oct. 12. The Buckeyes were marching in the closing seconds but ran out of time, losing 32-31. The Ducks are the nation’s only unbeaten team, and they beat a strong Penn State squad last time out in the Big Ten championship.
- Georgia quarterback Carson Beck is officially out for the Sugar Bowl, but the Bulldogs are still in pick’em territory against Notre Dame. Sophomore Gunner Stockton, a former four-star recruit, will start for UGA. Stockton completed 12 of 16 passes for 71 yards and an interception in relief of Beck during the SEC championship game.
