There have been a dozen or so bowl games already, but December 29 is when most of the fun ones actually begin. And one of those games is the Gator Bowl between South Carolina and Notre Dame, a pair of top 25 programs entering bowl season and two of the teams playing their best football right now.<\/p>\n

The Gamecocks (8-4) beat two top 10 teams to close the season, including SEC East rival Tennessee and in-state rival Clemson. The Fighting Irish (8-4) won five of their last six games after a bit of a slow start to the year under first-year head coach Marcus Freeman<\/b>.<\/p>\n
