Despite the heartbreaking 7OT loss to Texas A&M in the final week of the regular season, LSU still managed to work its way into a coveted New Years’ Six bowl game.
The Tigers will make their first-ever trip to the Playstation Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Arizona, taking on undefeated and No. 8-ranked UCF.
The Knights have made headlines in recent years for their 25-game winning streak and self-proclaimed “national championship” title last season, when they capped off a perfect regular season with a Peach Bowl victory over Auburn.
