New Year's Eve Bowl Thread

The last day of 2014 brings us three excellent bowl games.  If you chose today to park yourself in front of your television set and keep it on the Worldwide Leader, you chose a pretty good day to do it. Today's slate of games gives us three bowls that are part of "The New Year's Six" -- top-tier bowl games that are part of the rotation to host college football playoff games in the coming years.

Of Pac-12 interest is the Vizio Fiesta Bowl, in which the No. 10 Arizona Wildcats match up against a periodic major bowl darling, the No. 20 Boise State Broncos.  Arizona will try to keep the Pac-12 (4-0) undefeated in bowl games.

Enjoy today's bowls.  Talk about them here: this is your day's open thread.  If you want to catch up on the bowl games you have missed or check out the schedule of future bowls, just see below and click on the handy dandy scheduling tool that SB Nation has given to us.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
