After the season finale win against Georgia State, the Eagles concluded their season at 9-3 and 6-2 against Sun Belt teams. This week, the Cure Bowl and Arizona Bowl were taken off the table so it’s likely down to two Alabama bowls.

Now all that’s left to do is wait for the bowl schedule to come out Sunday to find out who and where GS will play its second bowl in program history.

For the final time of 2018, the national media has turned in their final bowl game projections:
