[NCAA] Il calendario di tutti i Bowl NCAA

Finita la stagione regolare inizia il tempo dei Bowl NCAA. Per due settimane con frequenza quasi giornaliera si alterneranno Bowl su Bowl, alcuni senza un reale valore sportivo se non la soddisfazione di aggiungere un trofeo alla propria bacheca e di portare a casa qualche dollaro, altri invece con una storia che li rende ambiti da tutte le Università.

Ovviamente non possiamo dimenticare i due Bowl che valgono come semifinale del torneo, Orange Bowl e Cotton Bowl del 31 dicembre e la finale che si disputerà l’11 gennaio a Glendale in Arizona.

Ecco l’elenco dei 40 Bowl più finale con nome (anche se in molti casi dovremmo scrivere sponsor), partecipanti, luogo e orario a cui devono essere aggiunte sei ore per renderlo italiano.
