Once the Allstate Sugar Bowl kicks off between Texas football and the Georgia Bulldogs on New Years Day, the final postseason game before the national title game will be set to be decided. The College Football Playoff National Championship Game kicks off on Jan. 7, and the Sugar Bowl is the final postseason game before then.
As of Dec. 27, most of the Power Five bowls have already or are close to kicking off in the next few days. All of the non-New Year’s Six Bowl games will have concluded by the official turn of the calendar year.
