The full 2022 college football bowl schedule features 43 competitions spread over three weeks in December and January. The action begins December 16 with the Bahamas Bowl and continues through January 9 when a national college football playoff champion is crowned at SOFI Stadium in Inglewood, California.
Notable for the early schedule is a packed seven-game table on Saturday, December 17th. Since New Year’s Day falls on a Sunday, no bowls are scheduled for January 1, which makes for an odd quirk on a day that’s usually important in college football’s postseason. Instead, December 31st and January 2nd will be some of the biggest dates this bowl season. Both CFP semifinals — the Peach Bowl and Fiesta Bowl — are scheduled for New Year’s Eve, while the Cotton Bowl, Citrus Bowl and Rose Bowl will be played on January 2nd.
Bowl participants will be announced on Sunday, December 4 after the conference championship games have been decided. Here’s how you can look at it College Football Playoff Selection Showand be sure to follow our live 2022 bowl games announcements with updates on each game as they wrap up.
CBS will rebroadcast the Sun Bowl on Friday, December 30 in El Paso, Texas.
