Capital One Orange Bowl
No. 6 Michigan (10-2, 7-2 Big Ten) vs. No. 11 Florida State (9-3, 5-3 ACC)
Dec. 30 – 8 p.m., ESPN
Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, Fla.

It hurts to even write about this game, knowing that the Louisville football team won’t be taking the field. Actually, the team the destroyed in September will be playing in their place. I guess head-to-head match-ups don’t mean as much as everyone has been telling us.

With that being said, the Seminoles have been playing great football as of late. They were able to weather an early season disaster to make a New Year’s Six Bowl.

However, Michigan’s defense is going to be the difference. Jabrill Peppers is one of the best defensive backs in the entire country and he will be a headache for Deondre Francois in the Orange Bowl.
