Christmas Eve night is usually a good time to get the kids into bed early so they can wait for Santa’s arrival in the morning. For college football fans, they will get an early present in the form of the Hawaii Bowl as the 10-3 San Diego State Aztecs take on the 7-5 Cincinnati Bobcats at Aloha Stadium. This will no doubt be a game that fans will want to watch just to enjoy the views from sunny and warm Hawaii on a chilly December night.

San Diego State has won nine straight games since starting the season 1-3. Maxwell Smith has thrown for 1,529 yards, 13 touchdowns and just two interceptions this year. Mikah Holder has found some open space in the secondary with 23 catches for 425 yards and five touchdowns. The key to the Aztecs offense is running back Donnel Pumphrey, who has 1,554 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns on the year. He gets a soft Cincinnati rush defense and could have a massive night.

Cincinnati has been a very up and down team all season but did win their season finale against East Carolina. Gunner Kiel has passed for 2,777 yards, 19 touchdowns and 11 interceptions for the season but won’t be making the trip due to a personal issue. Cincinnati does have a great receiver in Shaq Washington however. Washington has 88 catches for 971 yards and six touchdowns. On the ground, Hosey Williams leads the charge with 727 rushing yards and four touchdowns. The Bearcats average 559.4 yards a game on offense while the Aztecs give up just 287.9 yards on defense. The difference in this game comes down to that matchup.

What time is the Hawaii Bowl?

The Hawaii Bowl will begin at 8 p.m. Eastern.

What date and channel will the Hawaii Bowl be on?

The Hawaii Bowl will be played on Thursday, December 24 and can be seen on ESPN.

Sydney Esaison hot photos

Coined as the NHL’s hottest girlfriend, NHL “game highlights reporter” Sydney Esiason is also easily one of the hottest reporters in the history of sports TV. With her energetic on-screen persona and her incredibly fantastic good looks; Sydney Esiason is simply one hot sports lovin’ knock-out.

Infamously known for being the girlfriend of Islanders winger Matt Martin, Sydney Esiason is far more than just the pretty girlfriend of a famous hockey player. Nor is she simply just the super hot daughter of ex-NFL star Boomer Esiason. Although Sydney’s obviously got some serious sports connections, let’s be honest here; her hotness is entirely her own.

Although Sydney began her career as a NHL sportscaster in 2014, her blatant love for sports coupled with, well.. just how friggin hot she looks on television; is bound to assist her in doing some serious sportscaster damage!

So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and see this sexy NHL game highlights reporter’s hottest Instagram photos on the internet in the gallery below!

Let’s Talk About The New Star Wars Movie [SPOILERS]

Spoiler Alert

******************************

CAREFUL, THERE ARE SPOILERS INCLUDED WITHIN

******************************

I saw Star Wars: The Force Awakens last night, so like anyone who’s seen it I want to discuss my reactions to the movie. The only difference between us is that I have a website to do it on. But please, leave your comments and thoughts below–especially if you disagree with me.

Overall, I thought the movie was great. Not excellent, but great (excellent is better than great btw). My biggest fear was that I would leave the theatre feeling disappointed, which didn’t happen. Instead, I left with a lot of questions. So let’s get to it:

• How is it that Kylo Ren’s mastery of the Force switches from incredible to kind of pathetic? In the very first scene, Kylo demonstrates a Force power we’ve never seen before: stopping a blaster bolt in mid-air. That was bada**. But then later after he kills Han Solo, I’m supposed to believe that Kylo doesn’t notice an 8-foot tall Wookie aiming a bowcaster at him?

I can understand that he was a little distracted because he, you know, just killed his father but it just doesn’t add up. How is it that he doesn’t kill Finn immediately during the lightsaber fight? Finn lost to a freaking stormtrooper in a lightsaber fight, and even though he eventually loses to Kylo, their battle in the forest should have been over before it even began.

Possible answers: Kylo’s training wasn’t complete and it’s clear that his lightsaber skills need work. Luke was a great teacher and even more powerful Jedi, so he was able to teach Kylo and the other Jedi Academy trainees some Force powers (that blaster freeze) no one had displayed before.


• There’s no chance that Supreme Leader Stoke is that big in real life, right? That was only a projection and I’ve got a feeling it’s like a Wizard of Oz type deal.


• You’d think that anyone designing any sort of Death Star would intentionally leave out any troughs or canyons, especially ones that lead into important structural components. Guess not.


• Not really a question, but the connection between The New Republic and The First Order needed to be explained a hell of a lot better. How the f*ck are they able to construct a weapon the size of the Star Killer Base without anyone knowing, especially if they’re “rebuilding?”


• Incredibly, the scene that was leaked a couple of months ago was from the big plot moment: when Kylo kills Han. I wish I could find the YouTube video I’m talking about but Disney probably threw the entire family of the person whose account that was into prison, so the clip has disappeared. Just take my word for it.

The scene in question just involved explosions and storm troopers flying into the air, but I can just imagine the fear that JJ Abrams had at that moment. If a quick scene just after a big plot reveal got leaked, what’s to say the big moment wouldn’t get leaked?

Emma Roberts is sporting a completely sheer top on the latest cover of Allure magazine, and while we didn’t request this specific gift from Santa, we’re glad he brought it anyways.

Fresh off the season finale of Scream Queenswhose cast of Ariana Grande, Lea Michele, and Billie Catherine Lourd was reason enough to tune in –  Roberts strips down to her undies in an inside photo, and looks absolutely phenomenal.

Alongside her gorgeous photos, Roberts talks bra size (it’s a small B for curious minds), Instagram hate, and her new lingerie campaign with American Eagle’s Aerie.

In short: a handful is plenty. Emma, we’re into it.

Mom Tells Son To Make His Own Christmas Cards, Son Takes Christmas Cards To Insane New Level

Growing up, I HATED posing for Christmas cards. Every year, it would go something like this:

“Eric, smile better!” my Mom would say.

“What do you mean, ‘smile better’? I’m doing the best I f*ckin’ can, Ma! And the dog won’t stop squirming around!” responded 7 year old me.

“Oh wait, I forgot the flash!” my Mom would reply.

“F*ck this!” I’d yell. “I’m going to the strip club. Anybody got any singles?”

You get the picture. Anyway, as it turns out, I’m not the only one. Michigan comedian John Cessna apparently hates traditional Christmas cards, too.

When Johhny Boy’s Mom told him that he should “sober up” and make his own Christmas cards, well, that is exactly what he did… EXCEPT they are quite dark and remarkably funny.  Here’s John’s first card in 2008, clearly “sobering up”.

John's first card in 2008. Clearly "sobering up".

Here’s John in 2009, still clearly killing this whole “sober” thing his Mom asked for.

John’s 2010 effort got a little darker…

Nothing says Christmas like KFC and Eggnog.

The last two years, John really, like really really, took it to a whole new level. Like scary dark.

.

Seriously, though, can we be friends with this guy? At the very least get a drink with him.

 

Meet Stoner Sloth, Australia’s Hilariously Bad Anti-Weed Mascot

Can this actually be real? I mean, hell, it’s 2015, the year of political correctness! You’re going to tell that advanced, industrialized countries are still spending actual, real life, non-Monopoly money on anti-marijuana campaigns? And even so, you’re going to tell me the best they can come up with is this damn sloth?!

Unreal, Australia, unreal. I always knew you were a little out there, but this only solidifies that notion. To make matters worse, the slogan they’re rolling with is “You’re worse on weed #stonersloth”.

stoner sloth

Listen, I normally don’t advocate for people to lose their job, especially during the holiday season, but Australia, you owe it to your people, and quite frankly the rest of the world, to fire the hell out of whoever came up with this campaign.

You know what this reminds me of, right?

Andressa Damiani is Brazil’s Terrifying Human Barbie

Transforming into a human barbie must be the new thing to do. That or mental illness is rapidly spreading across the world, either or.

Andressa Damiani is the latest to be hit with the craze. Hailing from Brazil, the 23-year-old self-proclaimed “human Elsa” has a 20-inch waist and doll-like features, like gargantuan eyes, a 32F bust, and insanely long blonde hair.
Damiani claims her look is au natural and was not achieved by any amount of surgery. In fact, she says she’s been bullied since childhood because of her looks.

“Growing up, I was very shy and quiet. I had almost no friends and spent most my time alone with my miniature dolls. I always looked very child-like and had dolly facial features. I never developed like other girls and it led me to become a very insecure teenager. It was becoming very common for people to say that I looked like a doll and I felt awkward about this fact.”

But by the time Damiani hit her 20’s, she grew into her look and was totally cool with looking like a doll.

According to the Daily Mail,

“I’ve also had strangers tell me they are disgusted to look at my face and they fear me when they see me walking past. People run away when they see me. People think I’m insane and I only care for beauty but they shouldn’t be afraid. I want to show the world that everyone can be a doll. You don’t have to be skinny or blonde – just create your own look and be happy.”

“For as long as I remember I have always looked like a doll. I hardly wear any heavy make-up on a daily basis, I don’t diet and I walk my dogs for exercise. I like resembling a doll and I receive many lovely messages from fans.”

The veterinary physician – yes, she has a brain – boasts more than 600,000 subscribers on YouTube, so she must be doing something right. Plus her claims of not being surgically-enhanced already gives her more points in our book. We’ll give this human Barbie a free pass.

University of Alabama Now Conducting Weekly Drug Testing Of Fraternities

$

Alabama Urine

Beginning this academic year, the University of Alabama began randomly selecting fraternity brothers from different organizations for mandatory drug testing, AL.com reports. The organization in charge of this screening at UA is called MPACT (Maximizing Potential through Academics Community & Treatment) and is a joint effort between UA’s Student Health Center and the Dean of Students’ Office of Student Conduct.

This testing, which is mandated to five percent of fraternity members randomly (aka without reason), results in punishment or sanctions if students fail to take or pass the drug tests.

Six current and former members of the impacted chapters told AL.com over the past month that they now require their members to submit to periodic urinalysis at a UA facility in order to maintain good standing with the organizations and the school.

But it gets worse.

It’d be one thing if the national fraternity organizations, like Sigma Nu and Sigma Alpha Epsilon who voth are part of the MPACT program at UA, were the ones administering the tests. These are private organizations and there are plenty of fraternities who do this for insurance and risk management purposes. The real problem is that they’re letting a state school in a notoriously anti-drug state to handle the process.

We see zero upside to allowing the government regular access to that kind of personal information and data.

If you want to maintain a 100% drug-free house, great! You can hand over that information to the school after the fact and pat yourselves on the back because you hold yourself to a higher standard. But don’t give up control of that data.

One fraternity ex-president, Rob Grabowski of Sigma Nu, incorrectly seems to believe that because private companies that used to handle the drug tests weren’t accurate or secure allowing the school to administer the tests is a good thing.

“We test with UA MPACT… We were drug-tested before with LabCorp and it was just inefficient and everyone could fake it … Now it’s a more advanced test.”

That’s looking at the problem from the completely wrong way. As one redditor, Robinisagoodfellow, explains:

“That’s a shortcoming of the prior private lab – not a strength of UA. Whatever protocols UA is using are widely available through other private labs. Fraternity members should contract private labs for testing, or vote to end testing entirely. Putting potential felony evidence in the hands of ANY State agency is stupid.”

Sadly it seems like this dangerous trend has been ongoing for the past few years. Margaret Garner, executive director of the university’s Student Health Center & Pharmacy, wrote in an email:

“A number of years ago one fraternity on campus was required by its Advisory Board to initiate random drug testing as a means of making a statement about its commitment to a wholesome environment in regards to responsible use of alcohol in particular. Since then others have joined in.”

Here’s the holdup with this idea, though. It creates a very, very dangerous standard when you say “Hey we’re clean so we have nothing to hide. Why aren’t you sharing your information with the state? What are you trying to hide?” That’s the definition of a slippery slope because now you have pressure from your peers telling you to submit to an authority.

By all means hold yourself to high standards and focus on academics, but don’t look down on other organizations who don’t join in the practice.

I can’t help but get the feeling that the real victims here are the UA Greek Life students who don’t want to look unclean in the eyes of their peers, even though its none of their peers’ damn business what they want to do in the private.

It is time for the second year of the college football playoff and with that comes the two semifinal games. The opener on New Year’s Eve is the Orange Bowl at Sun Life Stadium in Miami as the No. 1 seed and 13-0 Clemson Tigers face the No. 4 seed and 11-1 Oklahoma Sooners. Clemson won the ACC title while Oklahoma took home the Big 12 championship. It is a matchup of two teams that can score points in bunches but also play very solid defense. The two teams also played each other in a bowl game last season with Clemson pounding Oklahoma 40-6 in the Russell Athletic Bowl.

Clemson defeated North Carolina 45-37 in that ACC title game to clinch a perfect regular season and the berth in the playoff. Deshaun Watson has thrown for 3,512 yards, 30 touchdowns and 11 interceptions and finds Artavis Scott quite a bit in the pass game with 84 catches for 805 yards and five touchdowns. Wayne Gallman has been a beast in the ground game with 1,332 rushing yards and ten touchdowns. The Tigers are looking for their first national title since 1981 and won the Orange Bowl to clinch that title.

Oklahoma didn’t have a conference title game to win but their wins over Oklahoma State, TCU and Baylor to end the season was enough to clinch the outright title. Baker Mayfield has thrown for 3,389 yards, 35 touchdowns and only five interceptions on the year. Sterling Shepard has 79 catches for 1,201 yards and 11 touchdowns as the leading receiver on the field for the Sooners. Samaje Perine offsets the Oklahoma pass game with 1,291 yards on the ground and 15 touchdowns. The last Oklahoma title was in 2000.

The Alabama Crimson Tide has been in this situation before with the college football playoff and playing in the semifinals. The 12-1 Tide will play in the second semifinal on New  Year’s Eve as the No. 2 seed in the Cotton Bowl against the No. 3 and 12-1 Michigan State Spartans.  Last year, the top-seeded Crimson Tide lost to the No. 4 seed in Ohio State who would end up winning the national championship. Nick Saban coached Michigan State in the past which makes for a great storyline going into this game.

Alabama won the SEC title with a 29-15 win over Florida. Derrick Henry has been the leader of the Crimson Tide offense all season long. Henry won the Heisman Trophy after rushing for 1,986 yards and 23 touchdowns. He will be hard to stop.  Jake Coker has passed for 2,489 yards, 17 touchdowns and eight interceptions this season and has seen a big season out of Calvin Ridley at wide receiver. Ridley has 75 catches for 893 yards and five touchdowns in the pass game for the Crimson Tide. Alabama’s last national championship came in 2012.

Michigan State used a 22-play drive in the closing seconds to beat Iowa 16-13 and win the Big Ten championship. Connor Cook’s right shoulder should be ready for this one after some injury concerns and he has thrown for 2,921 yards, 24 touchdowns and five interceptions this season. Aaron Burbridge has been great at wide receiver with 80 catches for 1,219 yards and seven touchdowns. LJ Scott scored that winning touchdown to get the Spartans into this game and has rushed for 691 yards and 11 touchdowns during the 2015 campaign. The Spartans haven’t won a national championship since 1966.

St Petersburg Bowl 2015

The day after Christmas is a day where many people go back out of their homes to return gifts they didn’t like. Savvy college football fans though will remain at home for a full day of bowl games that start early in the day as the St. Petersburg Bowl opens play on December 26 with a matchup between the 9-3 Marshall Thundering Herd and the 6-6 Connecticut Huskies at Tropicana Field. How many fans show up at a baseball stadium for a football game that starts in the morning?

Marshall lost two of their final three games including a 49-28 loss to Western Kentucky to end the regular season. Chase Litton threw for 2,387 yards, 22 touchdowns and seven interceptions this year while looking for Davonte Allen for the big play. Allen had 56 catches for 696 yards and five touchdowns. Devon Johnson leads the run attack for the Thundering Herd with 555 yards on the ground and five touchdowns. How will Marshall respond to their recent troubles against a team that barely finished .500 for the season when they average double the amount of points scored per game on offense?

Connecticut had a three-game winning streak snapped by Temple to end their regular season. Bryant Shirreffs passed for 1,992 yards, nine touchdowns and seven interceptions this season and had a great target in Noel Thomas. Thomas had 54 catches for 719 yards and three touchdowns. The run game has been controlled well by Arkeel Newsome and his 760 rushing yards for the year and six touchdowns. The Huskies only average 17.8 points and 318.4 yards per game. Can they keep up with Marshall on offense to win this game?

What time is the St. Petersburg Bowl?

There are some bowl games that have a ton of history and a long tradition of excellence. The Sun Bowl in El Paso would rank right up there with some of the most popular bowl games. This season’s version on December 26 features a matchup of 8-4 teams as the Miami Hurricanes take on the Washington State Cougars. There is turnover happening at Miami with Mark Richt taking over next season while Washington State has the fiery Mike Leach on the sidelines.

Miami won their final two games of the season to get to the eight-win mark and into this game. Brad Kaaya has thrown for 3,019 yards, 15 touchdowns and four interceptions this year and likes to find Stacy Coley in the pass game. Coley has 44 catches for 645 yards and three touchdowns. Joseph Yearby is approaching 1,000 yards on the ground with his 931 rushing yards and six touchdowns for the 2015 season. Richt will be watching very closely for a team that averaged 401.4 yards a game on offense but gave up 406.8 yards. It may take 50 points to win this game.

Washington State had a three-game winning streak snapped during a 45-10 loss to Washington to end their regular season. Luke Falk has passed for 4,266 yards, 36 touchdowns and eight interceptions while using Leach’s pass-first offense. Gabe Marks has 99 catches for 1,125 yards and 14 touchdowns in the pass game while Gerald Wicks has 599 rushing yards to lead the team. The Cougars average 476.9 yards a game on offense and nearly 400 of that comes via the pass but they also give up 422.8 yards a game. This is going to a high-scoring affair at the Sun Bowl to say the least.

What time is the Sun Bowl?

The Sun Bowl will begin at 2 p.m. Eastern.

What date and channel will the Sun Bowl be on?

The Sun Bowl will be played on Saturday, December 26 and can be seen on CBS.

********* ALL MAJOR SPOILERS ARE BEYOND TURN BACK NOW*********


• Han Solo and General Leia Organa are the parents of Kylo Ren, originally named Ben Solo.

• Ben Solo was trained to be a Jedi by Luke Skywalker (his uncle) until Ben snapped and killed the other Jedi students. Luke, blaming himself, then disappeared with only one map displaying his location.

• That map is given to the droid BB-8, who is then rescued by Rey, who is then in turn rescued by Finn a stormtrooper janitor.

• Kylo Ren is the Sith apprentice of Supreme Leader Snoke but regards Darth Vader as his mentor, asking him for strength.

Most Popular Women 2015

Since 2010, we’ve compiled our list of “The 50 Most Popular Women On The Web (According To Google)— and in that short time, it has become the definitive end-of-year list for determining which women racked up the most search results and earned the title “Queen of the Internet.

Our “50 Most Popular Women on the Web” is our favorite annual end-of-the-year tradition here at COED. Not only does it provide the definitive answer to which female has garnered the most Google results, it gives us a great opportunity to wrap up a year of crazy entertainment and celebrity news.

The 2015 list, like the year itself, was full of surprises. For example, a porn star ranks higher than Lady GaGa. And, apparently people are still searching for Amber Rose.

Pop stars lined the list, up and down, which makes sense because not only are they celebrities, but they actually, ya know, do something, as opposed to the Kardashians, who are still famous for doing nothing. Not only are the Kardashians obnoxiously all over this list, but 5 of them are in the top 20. Literally the only Kardashian not on this list is Kris Jenner. Luckily though, the likes of Selena Gomez, Cara Delevigne, and Jennifer Lawrence round out the list quite nicely.

2015 was great, but I think 2016 needs to be the year we take down the Kardashians, once and for all. #DownWithTheKardashians2016

How the List Was Compiled:


So how did we come up with The Most Popular Women On The Web (According To Google) 2015? Simple. Our editors came up with a massive list of over 1000 female actresses, politicians, singers, public figures and newsworthy women.

We then entered each name into Google Keyword Planner for the date range January 2015 thru November 2015 (December data is not available until January and added the average monthly search volume for each month and ranked them accordingly.)

There are some fans that see a matchup between a Conference USA school and one from the Pac-12 and just assume the biggest conference team is better. The Heart of Dallas Bowl at the Cotton Bowl may prove a lot of those critics wrong as the 9-4 Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles face the 6-6 Washington Huskies. The question of how many fans fly from Washington to the Dallas area will be worth seeing and will the Huskies be able to get past a powerful Golden Eagles offense as well.

Washington had to win their final two games just to get to 6-6 for the season including a 45-10 win over Washington State to end the regular season. Jake Browning has passed for 2,671 yards, 16 touchdowns and ten interceptions on the year and has a big target in Jaydon Mickens with his 50 catches for 597 yards and two touchdowns. The key to the Huskies offense is Myles Gaskin though. Gaskin has 1,121 rushing yards and ten touchdowns. Washington has a great defense as well that gives up just 17.8 points a game which will be challenged by the Golden Eagles.

Southern Mississippi lost their final game of the regular season during a 45-28 defeat at Western Kentucky. Nick Mullens is the real deal though with 4,145 passing yards, 36 touchdowns and 12 interceptions this year and has had great success throwing to Michael Thomas. Thomas has 62 catches for 1,201 yards and 12 touchdowns. Jalen Richard has also been a monster to stop on offense with 1,098 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns on just 185 carries. The Golden Eagles average 40.6 points and 519.8 yards per game. It will come down to who wins that matchup of offense vs. defense to determine a winner for this game.

What time is the Heart of Dallas Bowl?

The Heart of Dallas Bowl will begin at 2:20 p.m. Eastern.

When the college football bowl schedule was announced, one matchup popped out that should be played in basketball instead of football normally. The Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium features traditional basketball powers as the 6-6 Indiana Hoosiers face the 7-5 Duke Blue Devils on December 26. While the schools may be known more for their skills on the hardwood, their football teams haven’t been bad at all this season even with their records overall.

Indiana won their final two games to get back to 6-6 for the year which included a 54-36 win over Purdue to end the regular season. Nate Sudfeld has passed for 3,184 yards, 24 touchdowns and five interceptions for the 2015 year. Simmie Cobbs Jr. is approaching 1,000 yards receiving with 914 yards and four touchdowns in the pass game so far. Jordan Howard is a great running back for the Hoosiers with 1,213 rushing yards and nine touchdowns. Indiana scores a lot of points but they also give up a lot of points too. Will their 490.3 yards per game offense be enough to overcome their 507.3 yards per game defense?

Duke broke a four-game losing streak with a 27-21 win over Wake Forest to end their regular season. Thomas Sirk threw for 2,462 yards, 15 touchdowns and six interceptions while also leading the Blue Devils in rushing with 648 yards and six touchdowns so he is clearly the key to victory for Duke. Max McCaffrey finished the season with 48 catches for 601 yards and five touchdowns. The Blue Devils play solid defense which will be tested by the Indiana offense but will the time off help Duke overcome their late-season struggles and allow them to win this game inside the most famed baseball stadium around.

What time is the Pinstripe Bowl?

The Pinstripe Bowl will begin at 3:30 p.m. Eastern.

What date and channel will the Pinstripe Bowl be on?

The Pinstripe Bowl will be played on Saturday, December 26 and can be seen on ABC.

Frank Beamer has had a long and storied career as the coach of the Virginia Tech Hokies. He will coach his final game on December 26 as the 6-6 Hokies face the 6-6 Tulsa Golden Hurricane in the Independence Bowl at Independence Stadium in Shreveport, LA. Can his team send him off into the sunset with a victory to get over the .500 mark for the season or will Beamer go home with a losing record in his final season?

Virginia Tech won 23-20 over Virginia in their final game to clinch a bowl berth. Michael Brewer has passed for a team-high 1,359 yards, 12 touchdowns and six interceptions this season with Hokies quarterbacks looking the direction of Isaiah Ford a lot this year. Ford has 63 catches for 937 yards and ten touchdowns. Travon McMillian has rushed for 960 yards and five touchdowns to lead the running game. The Hokies average 29 points a game and depend a lot of that run game to be successful.

Tulsa broke a two-game losing streak with a 45-34 win over Tulane to end the regular season. Dane Evans has thrown for 3,958 yards, 22 touchdowns and eight interceptions on the year and has a yardage magnet with Keyarris Garrett. Garrett has 88 catches for 1,451 yards and seven touchdowns. D’Angelo Brewer has run well with 732 rushing yards and four touchdowns on the season. The Golden Hurricane average 502.8 yards per game and 35.9 points. Their offense is the thing that will carry them in this battle to finish 7-6.

The final game of the day on December 26 is the Foster Farms Bowl at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara. Fans will look at the fact that the 8-4 UCLA Bruins are playing a 5-7 Nebraska Cornhuskers team and immediately decide that it is a waste of time since Nebraska wouldn’t have made the postseason if there weren’t so many bowl games. However, even with that record, the Cornhuskers may have enough to pull an upset here against a team that doesn’t have to leave their state to play.

UCLA lost two of their last three games including a 40-21 loss to USC to end the season. Josh Rosen has passed for 3,351 yards, 20 touchdowns and nine interceptions this season and seems to have a favorite target in Jordan Payton. Payton has 75 catches for 1,069 yards and four touchdowns. Paul Perkins has balanced out the pass game with quality rushing. Perkins finished the regular season with 1,275 yards on the ground and 13 touchdowns. This game won’t be a cakewalk for the Bruins, who average the same 32.5 points a game that Nebraska averages.

Nebraska had a two-game winning streak snapped by Iowa in the team’s season finale. Tommy Armstrong Jr. has 2,856 passing yards, 21 touchdowns and 16 interceptions for the year while Jordan Westerkamp has looked great at wide receiver. Westerkamp has 63 catches for 874 yards and seven touchdowns. Terrell Newby rushed for 743 yards and five touchdowns during the regular season and will need to have a big game for the Cornhuskers to win as the Bruins give up 187.8 yards per game on the ground.

What time is the Foster Farms Bowl?

The Foster Farms Bowl will begin at 9:15 p.m. Eastern.

What date and channel will the Foster Farms Bowl be on?

The Foster Farms Bowl will be played on Saturday, December 26 and can be seen on ESPN.
