A look at the two teams that will be matched up this season in the Hyundai Sun Bowl. 

Bowl season is upon us now that the 2015 college football season is over, and one of the games that will be on the schedule as usual will be the Hyundai Sun Bowl.

This season, the Sun Bowl will be played on December 26 and it will begin at 2:00 p.m. ET to help you get over that Christmas hangover. The game will be broadcast on CBS and it will take place from Sun Bowl Stadium in El Paso, Texas, per usual.

So, who will be the two teams doing battle in the Sun Bowl this season? Well, it will be the Miami Hurricanes taking on the Washington State Cougars.


This is a rather intriguing match up, for a few reasons.

Miami went through what could be considered a rather disappointing season, but things are looking up. After firing Al Golden following a Clemson blowout, they got on the winning track. Recently, they named the new head coach and it is none other than Mark Richt, so the future is looking bright for this program. They’d love for nothing more than to get a win heading into the new regime.

Washington State got off to a slow start to the year but they fired it up as time went on. Mike Leach had this team playing some good football throughout the season, and a win here in the Sun Bowl could help a lot as they look to be a Pac-12 contender in 2016.
