WATCH! Bowl Confidence Pool Picks | College Football Featured Podcast

Andrew Bauhs of College Football Tour and Brett Gibbons of Road to CFB are out with a new limited-series podcast, College Football Featured. Each week, these college football travelers dive deep into the aspects that make the sport unique, authentic, and beloved by many.

This week, they discuss their bowl confidence pool picks– based solely on their travels. The criteria:

Top tier: Have been to both game days, pick which we like better
Mid tier: Have been to one game day (auto pick)
Bottom tier: Have not been to either game day. Andrew picked based on which he'd rather visit, Brett picked based on which stadium he likes better.
