The full college football bowl game schedule for the 2022 season features 43 contests spanning three weeks in December and January. Action began on Dec. 16 with the Bahamas Bowl and runs through Jan. 9, when a College Football Playoff national champion will be crowned at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
With New Year’s Day falling on a Sunday, there are no bowls scheduled for Jan. 1, which makes for a strange quirk on a day that is typically significant in college football’s postseason. Instead, Dec. 31 and Jan. 2 will be among the biggest dates this bowl season. Both CFP semifinals – the Peach Bowl and Fiesta Bowl – are set for New Year’s Eve, while the Cotton Bowl, Citrus Bowl and Rose Bowl will be played Jan. 2.
CBS will again carry the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl on Dec. 30 in El Paso, Texas.
Below is the entire schedule for bowl games with dates, times and network affiliations. All information regarding bowl games is subject to change. All times are Eastern.
