Bowl Picks

The season is rapidly coming to an end, and we are not happy about it. But we do have some amazing bowl games to close out the season. We will pick 20 bowl games that we think are the most interesting. Also, next week lookout for Chris’s takes on each SEC Bowl game and on why he picked the way he did.
Let’s get to the meat and potatoes of the post. There are so many of you that expressed that you wanted to be guest pickers this season. We feel bad that we were unable to feature your thoughts and opinions. So here is what we are going to do. We are going to feature our own Bowl Mania. Here is how it works.
Anybody, including former guest pickers, can email us (frontporchfootball@gmail.com) their 20 picks. The 20 games picked are the same twenty we pick below. Please keep the email as straightforward and clear as possible with the correct bowl games and the winners. Use an email address that you check regularly. If you have the best record, Front Porch Football will gift you something of your choice ($20 limit). We will figure the specifics out with the winner. In the even of a tie, we will randomly generate a name to determine the winner, but we will give credit to everyone who tied for first on our Facebook page. Deadline is Sunday, December 17th at 11:59 PM.
