Bowl Projections: @JPPalmCBS Sees Oregon and Wisconsin in #FiestaBowl
In the first year of the College Football Playoff the bowl picture will drastically shift from games that are important to now, four games that will become the most important with other games likely falling by the wayside. Two Bowl Games will feature teams looking for a National Title in the first year of the College Football Playoff. In the inaugural season the Sugar Bowl and Rose Bowl will hold the honor of finding the two best teams to face off in the first ever ‘true’ National Championship. The Oregon Ducks appear to be on the outside looking in.
