It’s never too soon for a ridiculously early bowl projection. ESPN, as I imagine they will do each week, predicted the bowl games for each Southeastern Conference team after the first weekend.
Tennessee, at the bottom of the list, projects to the Birmingham Bowl, while Georgia is considered to be in the national title hunt.
Here are the projections for all 11 teams predicted to be bowl eligible.
College Football Playoff semifinal (Rose Bowl): Georgia
Orange Bowl: Alabama
Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl: Auburn
Capital One Bowl: Texas A&M
TaxSlayer Bowl: LSU
Outback Bowl: South Carolina
Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl: Mississippi State
Belk Bowl: Florida
AdvoCare V100 Texas Bowl: Missouri
AutoZone Liberty Bowl: Ole Miss
Birmingham Bowl: Tennessee
Who knew there was a TaxSlayer Bowl now.
