Bowl projections: Arizona to face Ohio State in Holiday Bowl?

Arizona could face some Big Ten heavyweights in San Diego

The Arizona Wildcats had their four-game winning streak snapped against the USC Trojans this past weekend, but there is still plenty of reason to be optimistic about the team from Tucson.

Arizona (6-3, 4-2 Pac-12) is already bowl eligible and has three winnable games — vs. Oregon State, at Oregon, at ASU — remaining on its schedule, so there’s still an opportunity to win eight or even nine games this season and make it to a noteworthy bowl game.

And here are the bowl games experts think Arizona could play in:

Foster Farms Bowl (Dec. 27 — Santa Clara, CA)

• Bleacher Report (vs. Northwestern)
• Sporting News (vs. Northwestern)

Holiday Bowl (Dec. 28 — San Diego, CA)

• SB Nation (vs. Ohio State)
• ESPN’s David Hale: (vs. Michigan)
• ESPN’s Kyle Bonagura: (vs. Penn State)

Alamo Bowl (Dec. 29 — San Antonio, TX)

• CBS (vs. Oklahoma State)

Sun Bowl (Dec. 29 — El Paso, TX)

• Sports Illustrated: (vs. Virginia)
