How to watch the 2015 Alamo Bowl: Kansas State vs. UCLA game time, TV schedule, live online streaming
Who wins this likely shootout?
Every year, there’s going to be one bowl game that feels like a New Year’s Six bowl even though it isn’t officially in that lineup. This year, that bowl is the Alamo Bowl, which will match up two top 15 teams in what should be a very fun offensive showcase.
Yet again, Kansas State has put together a very impressive season behind the magic of Bill Snyder, as quarterback Jake Waters and star wide receiver Tyler Lockett led the Wildcats past Oklahoma and Texas and nearly led them to an upset of Auburn en route to a 9-3 record.
Meanwhile, UCLA disappointed this year, as the Bruins didn’t even with the Pac-12 South, despite having College Football Playoff aspirations. However, it still has a dynamic quarterback in Brett Hundley and an offense that can explode at any moment (just ask Arizona State). Who wins this matchup? We’ll find out on what should be an offense-filled night in Texas.

Two things at stake
UCLA is still on the right trajectory, but the Bruins need to avoid a loss to make this really feel like a disappointing season.
Kansas State can add yet another win to its resume and recent resurgence under Bill Snyder.
One big matchup
Brett Hundley vs. the Kansas State defense. There’s no doubting Hundley’s talent, though he’s been a bit erratic at times this year. Against Kansas State, he (and his offensive line) are going to have to have a very good game. The K-State defense isn’t outstanding, but the UCLA offense is going to need to score in order to keep up in what could very likely be a shootout.
