College football bowl season is finally here!
Over the next few weeks the best teams in college football will meet for one final game before heading back to the weight room and recruiting circuit to get ready for next year.
But for now, we have more great football to look forward to! During the regular season we picked seven games a weekend against the spread as our best bets, and went a comfortably profitable 54-43-1 in that span.
With bowl season here, we're taking our increased bankroll and letting it ride so we can enter 2018 with even more money to lose on the new sporting year.
Below you'll find our picks against the spread for every bowl game between now and Christmas. After the holiday, we'll check back in and offer some more picks to get you the rest of the way.
