10 Most watchable Bowl Game matchups

5. Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl (Dec.31): No. 20 LSU vs. No. 13 Louisville

Heisman trophy winner Lamar Jackson takes on previous Heisman hopeful and soon to be first-round draft pick Leonard Fournette in a bowl game named after a fruit and sponsored by a sports bar. These are the times to be alive. In all reality, the Jackson vs. Fournette matchup is what makes this game so interesting. This will be Leonard Fournette’s last game at LSU and Jackson is coming off the Heisman win.

Fournette got dinged up a few times this year and ended up missing five games during the season. In that time,, LSU unleashed their other big-time running back Derrius Guice. Guice ran for almost 1,300 yards and had 14 touchdowns. This combination of power and speed, which both posses, could have this Louisville defense on its heels. This will also be Ed Orgeron’s first game as the official head coach at LSU. He took over for Les Miles early in the year when Miles was let go. LSU’s defense will have to have a big game. They have the task of stopping Lamar Jackson, which is not easy.

Lamar Jackson was officially named the Heisman trophy winner for this year, an accomplishment most people saw coming. However, Louisville is coming into this game on a down note. They did not finish the season the way that they wanted and this was not the place they felt that they could end up at. Louisville’s chances come down to the performance of Lamar Jackson. Will he play like he did against Florida State, a game Louisville won 63-20, or will he play like he did against Houston, a game they lost and got totally dominated in?

Both teams have something to prove. Who wants it more? Prediction: Louisville 27, LSU 21
