Slow time before Bowls. Let's look at last year how the Bowls went.
It was a good year for the Favorite and Over bettors. Will it continue?
One thing stood out: the SEC was not only 8-2 SU but also 8-2 ATS and in those 8, seven games were blow-out wins. SEC haters got burned so bad they are still bitter now, so watch out for them and do not listen to their illogical and childish arguments about the SEC, a weak conference. However, do not expect last year stellar performance will happen again. BOL
