No. 11 LSU (9-3) will face undefeated No. 8 UCF (12-0) in the 2019 PlayStation Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, AZ on New Year's Day. Kickoff is set for noon CT (11 a.m. local).

The matchup will be the first-ever meeting between the programs and LSU's first appearance in the Fiesta Bowl. Per LSUSports.net:

quote:
“What an honor for our football team,” LSU head coach Ed Orgeron said on Sunday afternoon. “Our team deserved the very best reward at the end of the season that was possible. We feel that we got that with a chance to play in the Fiesta Bowl. What a prestigious matchup on New Year’s Day in a New Year’s Six Bowl against UCF.

“It’s a reward for our young men that worked very hard. I thought we had a good season. These guys started off unknown and had some very big wins throughout the season. This is a great reward for our football team, a very well-deserved New Year’s Day Six Bowl. It’s a great step for the Tigers.”

Finally, we get our shot at the defending national champs.

I hope we beat the dog shite out of them, so they will quit beating their own chests.

Capital B•89 months

We will do the College Football world a favor and humble these arrogant Florida boys. Their claim to prominence and bragging rights stems from beating a banged up Auburn team in last year's Peach Bowl... but we are NOT Auburn and we will prove so on New Year's Day in brutal fashion.

So we still have a chance to be national champs!

Via transitive property, yes.

Keep sleeping on UCF and end up like Auburn.

We’re not the Barn. Don’t you remember? “F*** DEM!”

I like this game and this match up. Lots of prestige and money for LSU

Load Toad•89 months

LSU needs win by 20 pts. A win like that would help recruiting.

themunch•89 months

IS UCF 25 and O or not? We need to win this game.

OU812•89 months

UCF's rushing defense is weak. Also ESPN interviewed one of their Olinemen and was asked about LSU twice and he changed the subject both times...seemed arrogant.

HoustonGumbeauxGuy•89 months

with McKenzie Milton out at QB, UCF will have this as their excuse.

jpbmill•89 months

Who cares? Win, celebrate 10 wins, and move on.

DVinBR•89 months

with their quarterback hurt this is a no excuses game

GeauxLSUBengalTigers•89 months

Did you see what the backup did yesterday? 300 passing. 2 tds passing and 4 tds rushing.

DVinBR•89 months

yeah, against a team that gave up 41 points and lost to tulane

CanebreakCajun•89 months

All booked. Pull their diapers down and spank that arse. GEAUX TIGERS
