This week’s Cheap Seats is a special edition. Wingman has been getting theHogs.net ready for their big 2005 draft section that is coming soon, and he wanted to make his first 2005 draft piece something really worthwhile.<\/p>\n

As usual, he did.<\/p>\n

Wingman went ahead and previewed EVERY College Bowl Game over the holiday season for you. He wanted to post it before the bowl games even started, but he fell quite ill over the weekend, so I am accompanying his guide with this explanation.<\/p>\n

You will not find a more comprehensive guide to watching College Bowl games this year. Every game is complete with the teams’ record, standings, key players to watch as well as Wingman’s overview of the game and a Cheap Seats comment for each as well. Wingman is giving all of you college football fans a nice Christmas present. Check out the guide, print it off, and let the festivities begin.<\/p>\n

Wingman’s 2004\/2005 College Bowl Guide<\/p>\n

Glad you’re on the mend big guy, get well soon. <\/p>\n
