Bowl games might not be around forever as the sport becomes more playoff-centric, but the games are still great ways to kill time with family or at home from work over the holidays. Ten of the 13 FBS teams in Texas will play in the postseason this year with eight taking part in bowl season. Only Baylor, which declined an invite at 5-7, UTEP, and Sam Houston won’t play another game. Texas Tech and Texas A&M reached the playoffs.
The eight teams not in the playoffs play across seven different bowl games with one intrastate matchup between Rice and Texas State. Let’s rank them in from least interesting to most interesting.
