Predicting the winner of every 2020 college football bowl game.

Several college football bowl games have been canceled this year and more than 20 programs have made the decision to opt-out of playing in a bowl game so their players and coaches can finally visit their families.

Among those not playing a bowl game are Penn State, USC, Michigan, Michigan State, Nebraska, Florida State and LSU who self-imposed a bowl ban for NCAA reasons. Most of the Pac-12 outside of Colorado and Oregon are also sitting out.

Despite all of the bowl cancelations and teams opting out, there are still 28 bowl games and the National Championship Game which makes 29 more games to be played this season.

And I’m going to pick a winner for every bowl game and hope my batting average is somewhat respectable.
