The complete College Football Playoff and bowl schedule is out with all dates, times, matchups, TV channels and odds for the slate.
The highlights are the CFP games and the New Year’s Six games. Of course, Michigan takes on Alabama and Washington takes on Texas for a chance to play for a national title.
Without further ado, let’s dive into the bowl schedule complete with times, channels and odds!
College Football Playoff Semifinal: Rose Bowl – No. 1 Michigan vs. No. 4 Alabama
Date: January 1st
Time: 5 p.m. ET
Location: Rose Bowl – Pasadena, California
Channel: ESPN/FuboTV (Streaming)
Odds: Michigan (-1)
Michigan vs. Alabama is the semifinal that’s jam-packed with storylines. The suspension of Jim Harbaugh, one of Nick Saban’s best coaching jobs, ‘Bama making it in over Florida State? Add in the fact that these two teams are the favorites to win it all and it’s clear that all eyes will fall on the Rose Bowl come New Year’s Day for this one between the Wolverines and Crimson Tide.
College Football Playoff Semifinal: Sugar Bowl — No. 2 Washington vs. No. 3 Texas
Date: January 1st
Time: 8:45 p.m. ET
Location: Caesars Superdome – New Orleans, Louisiana
Channel: ESPN/FuboTV (Streaming)
Odds: Texas (-4.5)
This rematch of the Alama Bowl from last season is no less interesting of a playoff semifinal than the first. In all honesty, it’s a game between two teams that many thought would slip up before getting to this point. Instead, either Washington or Texas will end up playing for a national title depending on who comes out victorious in New Orleans.
Cotton Bowl — Ohio State vs. Missouri
Date: December 29th
Time: 8 p.m. ET
Location: AT&T Stadium – Arlington, Texas
Channel: ESPN/FuboTV (Streaming)
Odds: Missouri (-2.5)
Ohio State vs. Mizzou is some form of dichotomy when it comes to program interest. It’s safe to say that the Cotton Bowl is not exactly what the Buckeyes had in mind for their year. On the other hand, the Tigers will be ecstatic for this opportunity against one of the sport’s best after posting their best record in almost a decade.
Peach Bowl — Penn State vs. Ole Miss
Date: December 30th
Time: Noon ET
Location: Mercedes-Benz Stadium – Atlanta, Georgia
Channel: ESPN/FuboTV (Streaming)
Odds: Penn State (-3.5)
In the third of three matchups between the Big Ten and SEC, Penn State and Ole Miss will clash in the ATL. It sets up quite the coaching meeting between James Franklin and Lane Kiffin as their programs go at it to earn their 11th and final win of 2023.
Orange Bowl — Florida State vs. Georgia
Date: December 30th
Time: 4 p.m. ET
Location: Hard Rock Stadium – Miami, Florida
Channel: ESPN/FuboTV (Streaming)
Odds: Georgia (-14)
There’s likely no more depressed bowl on the schedule than the Seminoles vs. the Bulldogs in the Orange Bowl. Florida State is convinced that they should have been in the playoff while Georgia knows they should be there as well after winning the last two national championships. Still, if both teams put this behind them and show up like they have all season, it should make for a great game in South Beach.
Fiesta Bowl — Oregon vs. Liberty
Date: January 1st
Time: 1 p.m. ET
Location: State Farm Stadium – Glendale, Arizona
Channel: ESPN/FuboTV (Streaming)
Odds: Oregon (-17.5)
Oregon had their shot and missed when it came to the Pac-12 Championship and a spot in the playoff. Now, with those off the table, all the Ducks can do is try to earn their dozenth win against Liberty, a team that is unblemished after the regular season and a championship win out of Conference USA.
