The college football bowl season continues with a host of high-profile matchups on Friday, starting with Maryland vs. NC State in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl.
That will be followed by midday showdowns between UCLA and Pittsburgh in the Sun Bowl, and Notre Dame and a red-hot South Carolina team in the Gator Bowl.
In the nightcap, fans will be treated to an Orange Bowl showdown that couldn’t be more appropriately named, as the No. 7 Clemson Tigers take on the No. 6 Tennessee Volunteers.
