College football fans in the NBC 5 viewing area will get to watch some of their favorite teams take the field in bowl games this winter, with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish securing a New Year’s Six bowl berth and the MAC champion Northern Illinois Huskies taking the field for the start of the bowl season.

As for the Huskies, they will play on the very first day of the bowl season on Friday, Dec. 17 when they take on Coastal Carolina in the Cure Bowl.
