Which team do YOU think will win this year's College Football Playoff?

The college football bowl season is getting down to the short rows. Most of the minor bowls have already been played, leaving the big boys to duke it out in the major bowls with bragging rights and a possible national championship on the line for some.

Between today (Thursday) and Jan. 11, there are 13 bowl games remaining to be played, and, for what it’s worth, here are my predictions for those games.

· Look for Florida State to beat Houston in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, which will be played today in Atlanta. That game is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. and will be televised on ESPN.

· Expect Oklahoma to beat Clemson in the Capital One Orange Bowl, which will be played today in Miami Gardens, Fla. This bowl, which is one of the semi-final round play-in games for the national championship game, is set to start at 3 p.m. and will be shown on ESPN.

· Look for Alabama to beat Michigan State in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl, which will be played today in Arlington, Texas. This bowl, which is the other semi-final play-in game, will begin at 7 p.m. and will also be televised on ESPN.

· Expect Tennessee to down Northwestern in the Outback Bowl, which will be played tomorrow (Friday) in Tampa, Fla. This game is scheduled to kickoff at 11 a.m. and will be shown on ESPN2.

· Look for Michigan to beat Florida in the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl, which will be played tomorrow in Orlando. This game, which should be pretty entertaining to watch, is set to start at 12 p.m. and will be televised on ABC.

· Expect Ohio State to outgun rival Notre Dame in the BattleFrog Fiesta Bowl, which will be played tomorrow in Glendale, Az. This game, which should also be worth tuning in for, is scheduled to begin at 12 p.m. and will be shown on ESPN.

· Look for Stanford to beat Iowa in the Rose Bowl, which will be played tomorrow in Pasadena, Calif. This bowl game is set to start at 4 p.m. and will be televised on ESPN.

· In the final game of the day, expect Ole Miss to represent the SEC well by downing Oklahoma State tomorrow in the Allstate Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. This bowl game is scheduled to kickoff at 7:30 p.m. and will be shown on ESPN.

· In the first game of the day on Saturday, look for Georgia to beat Penn State in the TaxSlayer Bowl, which will be played in Jacksonville, Fla. This game is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. and will be shown on ESPN.

· Expect Arkansas to beat Kansas State in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, which will be played Saturday in Memphis, Tenn. This bowl is set to kickoff at 2:20 p.m. and will be televised on ESPN.

· Look for TCU to down Oregon in the Valero Alamo Bowl, which will be played Saturday in San Antonio. This game is scheduled to begin at 5:45 p.m. and will be shown on ESPN.

· In the final game of the day, expect West Virginia to beat Arizona State in the Motel 6 Cactus Bowl, which will be Saturday played in Tempe, Az. That game is set to start at 9:15 p.m. and will be televised on ESPN.


· Last, but not least, if Oklahoma wins the Orange Bowl, and if Alabama wins the Cotton Bowl, they’ll meet in the CFP National Championship game, which will be played on Mon., Jan. 11, in Glendale, Az. That game is scheduled to kickoff at 7:30 p.m., and it’ll be hard not to predict an Alabama victory if they’re able to get by Michigan State.
