It's New Year's Eve, and what better day to watch college football Bowl games! This year's Capital One Orange Bowl will be between Mississippi State and Georgia Tech as the 7th ranked Bulldogs (10-2) take on the 12th ranked Yellow Jackets (10-3) at Sunlife Stadium, Miami Gardens, Florida. The game kicks off at 8 p.m. on New Year's Eve, December 31 - and will be the last game of college football for 2014. Read on below for preview power rankings and to find out where you can watch and stream the bowl game.

The Capital One Orange Bowl will feature two of the college game's "best dual threat quarterbacks", says USA Today's Jeff Sagarin, in Dak Prescott and Justin Thomas. Mississippi State will look to finish of 2014 with a win, while Georgia Tech will try to take the Orange Bowl after their loss to Jamies Winston and Florida State University in ACC title game.

Of Mississippi State, in his Capital One Orange Bowl preview for The Bleacher Report, Nate Loop says their "first task for Mississippi State will be contending with the Yellow Jackets' triple-option offense, a throwback attack that produced 4,337 rushing yards this season."

He adds that: "Prescott accounted for 37 total touchdowns and 3,935 all-purpose yards this season. He formed an effective backfield tandem with running back Josh Robinson, who averaged 6.4 yards per carry and rushed for 11 touchdowns."

"Sticking to assignments and maintaining gaps will be key to the Bulldogs' success in this contest."

As for the Georgia Yellow Jackets, Loop says: "Yellow Jackets quarterback Justin Thomas was in fact the team's leading rusher, with 965 of the 4,337 rushing yards, but it's not like the team's preeminent ball-carrier is allergic to the pass. Thomas still managed to throw for 1,594 yards and 17 touchdowns against just five interceptions."

"Their best bet for racking up an early advantage might be getting pressure and forcing Prescott into making mistakes."

"The Yellow Jackets picked off 17 passes this season. Junior defensive backs Jamal Golden and D.J. White led the way with four each."
