The latest bowl projections have most of Florida’s teams facing the possibility of staying in-state for the post season.
With none of the schools figuring in the playoffs, most of ESPN’s latest projections still have some intriguing match-ups.
Start with UCF, which will play in Orlando’s Cure Bowl against Appalachian State on Dec. 17 (according to Mark Schlabach) or the Miami Beach Bowl (Dec. 19) against Ohio (according to Brett McMurphy).
USF is projected to play against Boston College in the St. Petersburg Bowl on Dec. 26 (Schlabach) or in the Birmingham Bowl (Dec. 29) against Ole Miss.
Miami could play either Minnesota (Dec. 28) in the Pinstripe Bowl or face Florida in Jacksonville’s Taxslayer Bowl on Dec. 31.
If Florida doesn’t play Miami, it is projected to play against Nebraska in Tampa’s Outback Bowl on Jan. 2.
FSU is projected to play either Wisconsin in the Orange Bowl on Dec. 30 or Tennessee in the Orlando Citrus Bowl on Dec. 31.
Again, the predictions are subject to change by the week.
