It's beginning to look a lot like bowl season! NCAA college football will take center stage in the final month of the year with a staggering 47 Division I bowl games scheduled from December 13 to January 19.
There will be plenty of must-see events like the Sun Bowl, the Citrus Bowl, and the Cotton Bowl, as well as underrated gems like the Hawaii Bowl. Who could forget last year when South Florida edged San Jose State 41-39 in the game's fifth overtime?
Mind you, bowl season isn't the only thing sports bettors can look forward to in December. The 12th month of the year is full of other marquee events including the NBA Cup Final, UFC 323, and oodles of NFL, NHL, and NCAAB action.
