The Bowties & Bowl Games 2014 SEC Football Preview is a comprehensive preview publication for the upcoming 2014 Southeastern Conference football season. Former football coach Nicholas Ian Allen provides observations, insight and analysis for all 14 SEC programs, including position-by-position breakdowns for every offensive and defensive unit, in addition to coaching staff news and schedule analysis for every team. This electronic publication also includes in-depth feature articles that explore the biggest stories of the upcoming season. This electronic publication is the best pre-season resource available for the country's most passionate football fans.
Bowties & Bowl Games focuses on the Southeastern Conference exclusively and the decision to do so was a calculated one. The SEC has the best fans in college football, and there is also a unique lifestyle that surrounds football in the South that cannot be found anywhere else.
The southern football lifestyle is more than just the game itself. North, south, east and west across the SEC footprint, from Lexington to Gainesville, Columbia to College Station, fans rise early on Saturday morning, dress our best, and tailgate until kickoff. We will pack the stadium, and win or lose, party into the early morning. On Sunday, we rise early again for church and brunch.
But, the southern football lifestyle is many things and it continues all year. It is off-season beach trips. It is seersucker, boat shoes and monograms everywhere. It is country music and classic rock. It is barbecue, sweet tea and craft beer. It is “yes sir” and “no ma’am,” “hey, ya’ll” and “bless your heart.” It is front porches, screen doors and Larry Munson on the radio. It is Bowties & Bowl Games.
