2022 is coming to a close and another successful football season is in the books–filled with wild highlights, crazed fans, theft of field goal posts, and the always favorite game day hot dogs. The official collegiate bowl season will formally begin with the commencement of the Bahamas and Cure Bowl on December 16. Whether you’re hosting a watch party or tailgate at your home or gathering up your friends to watch the game on the big screen at a local sports bar, here’s a list of when Texas-based college teams will play and how you can watch without missing a beat.
