Here are all the details you need to know for the Bahamas Bowl between Florida International and Toledo, including how to bet and stream online.

Outside of the Rose Bowl and the College Football Playoff, is there a better setting that college football players want to visit than the Bahamas Bowl? Talk about a picturesque environment to play your last game of the season.

Florida International and Toledo get the honors of playing in the Bahamas Bowl from Thomas Robinson Stadium in Nassau on Friday, Dec. 21 at 12:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.

The 8-4 Panthers lost a nail-biter in the regular season finale against Marshall and have split their last four games of the year. They feasted on inferior opponents to get to eight wins, but do have a quality win against Middle Tennessee State to boost their resume a tad.

FIU averaged 34.6 points and 417.6 yards per game behind quarterback James Morgan who has tossed 2,727 yards and 26 touchdowns on the year. His favorite target is CJ Worton who had 36 catches for 620 yards and six touchdowns.

Toledo counters with a passing attack that can go pass for pass with FIU so the Bahamas Bowl could turn into a shootout with the team having the ball last having the best chance to win.

The Rockets have a well-balanced offense that averages almost identical numbers per game on the ground and through the air. The pass offense averaged 224.9 yards while the ground game averaged 223.6 so they will try to keep FIU off-balance all afternoon.

Toledo quarterback Eli Peters has thrown 15 touchdowns on the year after taking over as the starter for the injured Mitchell Guadagni. He’ll rely on freshman running back Bryant Koback who led the team in rushing with 875 yards on 6.3 yards per carry and has 13 touchdowns. Art Tompkins and Shakif Seymour provide a three-headed monster in the backfield that Toledo can roll out against the FIU defense and wear them down in the Bahamian heat.

Prediction: Expect a high-scoring affair with the winner scoring 38-42 points. The rushing attack that Toledo has will prove to be too much for the FIU defense to contend and the FIU offense won’t be able to keep pace with the Rockets rushing attack. Toledo wins but doesn’t cover.
