ESPN's unparalleled commitment to the college football postseason is on full display this winter with a wide-ranging slate in December and January, including 17 ESPN Events owned and operated bowls as part of 33 Bowl Season games which combine with ESPN's coverage of the new, expanded era of the College Football Playoff to make ESPN the home for college football's postseason.

In its entirety, the 2024-25 Bowl Season runs from Saturday, Dec. 14, through Saturday, Jan 4. ESPN platforms are the home of Bowl Season, with 33 college football bowl games live on ABC, ESPN or ESPN2.
