No Bowl…

Where: Chips Bowl—Tucson, AZ

When: All-Bowl Season

The college football experts at Athlon Sports seemed to have forgotten about the Wildcats, picking eight Pac-12 teams to go bowling without an Arizona invite to the bowl season party. With the Cats exclusion, they picked the Sun Devils to play in the Independence Bowl.

Finishing ninth in the Pac-12 would be a huge disappointment for Rich Rod and his team, but if the Pac-12 can generate eight teams to represent the conference, It’s still something to be ultimately proud of.

Furthermore, Athlon Sports does not have a Pac-12 team in the college football playoff. Instead, they project the Washington Huskies to win the Pac-12 North, ultimately win the conference trophy and play in the Rose Bowl.
