2018 Porch Picks: Week 7

Week 6 was full of some exciting football, and Brendan took an absolute beating. After going 18-2 in Week 5 he fell hard. Brendan lived the Proverb, “pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.” He looks to bounce back in Week 6 with 2 new guest pickers! 
Scott (Clemson ’08) and Elizabeth (Clemson ’09) have been married for 8 years and have 2 children.  They reside in Jacksonville, FL where Scott is a partner at Tidewater Homes, and Elizabeth is a professional non-profit & model for Skirt Chaser Outfitters.
