There are so many bowls, it seems bowl season starts earlier and earlier every year, even if it doesn’t.

However, for the 2019 season, it actually will start earlier, according to college football insider Brett McMurphy.

As you can see in the tweet below, McMurphy said the NCAA football oversight committee will let the bowl season start on Friday, Dec. 20, this year instead of Saturday, Dec. 21:

Why it’s necessary to start a day earlier instead of stacking one day of bowls with a couple of extra games is unknown at this time, but this was what the committee reportedly decided.

Anyway, it gives us one more day of college football, so we shouldn’t complain about that.
