The No. 20 LSU Tigers (7-4, 5-3 SEC) will face No. 13 Louisville (9-3, 7-1 ACC) in the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl on Saturday, Dec. 31 at 11 a.m. ET.

The game will be televised on ABC. Per LSUSports.net:
quote:

Florida Citrus Sports’ Chairman Harold Mills and CEO Steve Hogan announced the matchup today on behalf of the organization’s Team Selection Committee. The 71st edition of the game will take place at 11 a.m. ET on Saturday, Dec. 31, at Camping World Stadium and will be televised nationally by ABC.

This year’s Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl will be the first-ever meeting between Louisville and LSU. The Tigers have played in Orlando three times previously, most recently in 2010. The Cardinals will be making their first appearance in the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl but their second appearance in an Orlando bowl game after the 2013 Russell Athletic Bowl.

Honestly, a better bowl and a better opponent than I expected...should be a nice way to finish the season.

I kind of wish we had the opportunity to play Florida again so we could get revenge by kicking their butt.

I know that Louisville isn't a historically good football team, but in 2016, this team is solid. I'm not saying LSU *will* lose, but if they did I don't think it would come as a huge surprise. If LSU does indeed win, this would be the biggest win of the season for the Tigers.

One of the rare times living on the eastern time zone somewhat helps. Hell just DVR it and watch it later.

I like the fact LSU will get a shot at beating the media darling L'Ville. However, Auburn is going to get whipped in the Sugar Bowl by Oklahoma. LSU vs Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl would have been a better game.

L'Ville's run defensive #s look good against the teams they beat bc usually those teams had to abandon the run to try to score fast in the second half. In the games they lost,'their D got shredded by good running attacks.

If Kentucky could find a way to beat them, so will LSU
