Tuesday Bowl Carousel: Let The Cycle Begin

Here's what we know...

Central Florida has accepted a bid to travel all the way from Orlando to St. Pete to play at The Juice Box against an as-of-yet-unknown opponent... could be Rutgers, UConn, or South Florida...

SMU accepted its first bowl bid in 25 years. They're going to the Hawai'i Bowl to take on an unknown opponent...

Looks like the Outback has Auburn and Wisconsin on New Year's Day. But Northwestern has a shot there as well.

The Gator is leaning toward the Bowden back-To-The-Future Bowl with Florida State and West Virginia on New Year's... the ACC is currently finagling that one...

Navy is heading to the Texas Bowl on New Year's Eve to take on a Big 12 opponent.


Jerry World gets Oklahoma State and Ole Miss for the Cotton Bowl...

Tennessee and Virginia Tech have the Chick-fil-A bowl on New Year's Eve...

Georgia gets to travel to Shreveport for the Independence Bowl, according to WSB-TV in Atlanta and the Athens Banner-Herald newspaper...

While the bowl executive director would not commit one way or the other on the Dawgs, Missy Setters acknowledged UGA and South Carolina are on their radar. Missouri, Iowa State, and Texas A&M are rumored from the Big 12 side.

The Memphis Commercial Appeal has Arkansas heading to the Liberty Bowl to take on the Conference USA champ- either East Carolina or Houston. They also have LSU headed to the Citrus to play Penn State.

That means that the Music City gets Kentucky to play either Miami or North Carolina, and the Pizza Bowl in Birmingham gets South Carolina to play a Big East opponent.

Got all that...???
There's a test later...
