Carla and Crappy Show: The 2019 Final Four Edition

The holidays tend to be excessive: Tons of food, too much to drink ... and a steady stream of college football for weeks. But nestled in the middle of our Bowlapalooza-level games are the traditional gems: The New Year's Six games and the two CFP semifinals. Don't think for a second that Carla and Crappy aren't enjoying all of the bowl games, but in the words of our least-favorite conference, these games just mean more.

Dec 28: Cotton Bowl Classic No. 10 Penn State vs. No. 17 Memphis: Defense — as in Penn State’s defense — wins bowl games.

Dec. 30: Orange Bowl No. 9 Florida vs. No. 24 Virginia: Will this serve as a springboard to a big 2020 for the Gators?

Jan. 1: Citrus Bowl No. 13 Alabama vs. No. 14 Michigan: Alabama was not Alabama this year. But Michigan hasn’t been Michigan in a decade or more.

Jan. 1: Rose Bowl Game No. 6 Oregon vs. No. 8 Wisconsin: Can the Big Ten win a second Rose Bowl in a row?

Jan. 1: Sugar Bowl No. 5 Georgia vs. No. 7 Baylor: It’s the dogs’ day.

Dec. 28: Peach Bowl (College Football Playoff semifinal) No. 1 LSU vs. No. 4 Oklahoma: In this case, ND doesn’t stand for Notre Dame — it stands for No Defense.

Dec. 28: Fiesta Bowl (College Football Playoff semifinal) No. 2 Ohio State vs. No. 3 Clemson: History isn’t on Ohio State’s side. But the best defense in the country is.

Happy holidays, everyone. And we'll see you back here one more time to preview the national title game.
