2016 Russell Athletic Bowl Date & Time Announced

The 2016 Russell Athletic Bowl will be played on Wed., December 28 at 5:30 p.m. ET.

The game, televised by ESPN and played at Orlando?s Camping World Stadium, is joined by the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl, this year played at 11:00 a.m. on New Year?s Eve while airing on ABC.

Tickets to both games are available now through Florida Citrus Sports. FCSports members have priority access to the best available seats, including the Camping World Stadium?s new sideline clubs and other premium areas.

The 2016 Russell Athletic Bowl features the top post-College Football Playoff selection from the ACC (including the possibility of Notre Dame) and the second post-CFP pick in the Big 12. Last year?s contest was the most prolific offensively in the history of the bowl as Baylor exploded for 756 yards of total offense, setting six offensive records en route to a 49-38 win over North Carolina.

Packages are available now by calling 407.423.2476 or visiting www.FloridaCitrusSports.com. Single-game tickets to both bowls will go on sale for purchase by the general public in November.
