INGLEWOOD, Calif. (CNS) — Washington State will face Fresno State in the Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl Dec. 17 at SoFi Stadium, organizers announced Sunday.

Fresno State earned a spot in the game with a 28-16 victory over Boise State in the Mountain West Football Championship Game Saturday, avenging a 40-20 loss to the Broncos Oct. 8. The Bulldogs (9-4) have won eight consecutive games since that loss.

After the New Year's Six bowls, the Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl has the fifth choice among Pac-12 Conference teams, behind the Alamo Bowl, Holiday Bowl, Las Vegas Bowl and Sun Bowl.

The teams have two common opponents: USC and Oregon State. The Cougars (7-5) lost to the Trojans, 30-14 on Oct. 8 and 24-10 to the Beavers on Oct. 15. Fresno State lost to Oregon State, 35-32, on Sept. 10, and to USC, 45-17 on Sept. 17.
