College Football Bowl Games Today: Schedule, Start Time, Predictions, TV Coverage

Military Bowl Prediction and Preview

For the first time since 2018, Duke is set to play in the postseason. The Blue Devils soared past expectations this year in head coach Mike Elko’s first year at the helm. Now, they have an opportunity to knock off one of the toughest Group of 5 teams in the country when they tangle with UCF in the Military Bowl.

The Knights will be without a handful of key players due to the transfer portal. However, if quarterback John Rhys Plumlee is able to overcome nagging injuries and play, this figures to be a battle to the very end.

According to the numberFire college football bowl projections, UCF has a 55.9% chance of winning the Military Bowl.

Liberty Bowl Prediction and Preview

The longest postseason drought in all of college football will come to an end in Wednesday evening’s Liberty Bowl. After getting off to a 5-0 start, Kansas struggled throughout most of Big 12 Conference play this season. However, the Jayhawks were able to get a November win to become bowl-eligible for the first time since 2008.

What’s more, QB Jalon Daniels is expected to be close to 100% after missing multiple games in the second half of the season with an injury. Of course, having to tussle with a proud SEC program like Arkansas won’t be easy. The Razorbacks have a star quarterback of their own in KJ Jefferson, leading many to believe that a shootout could transpire in Memphis.

According to the numberFire bowl game projections, Kansas has a 54.0% chance of winning the Liberty Bowl.
