All-Haiku Bowl Predictions, 2016
Dec
15
2016
Based on the popularity existence of last year’s article predicting bowl games in haiku form, I present to you this year’s all-haiku bowl game predictions. Still America’s only all-haiku college football bowl game predictions.
These are listed in order of date (earliest first). Some picks are whom I think will win, and some picks are whom I want to win. I’ll leave it to you, the reader, to decide which is which.

Maybe this will be
the year that the Lobos can
win their own bowl game
New Mexico over UTSA
Las Vegas Bowl
I finally know
what Royal Purple is and
they aren’t the sponsor

I’m not going to fall
into their trap of looking
up “Camellia”

Any idea
who is going to perform
the halftime show here?

better offense and defense

Old Dominion over EMU

mean as much when it is named

is not a real bowl game but
just a vacation

The Bulldogs really
miss having a Dak Prescott
as their quarterback
Miami Ohio over Mississippi State
Quick Lane Bowl
Both and 6 and 6.
If this game ends in a tie,
that would be perfect.
Maryland over BC
Independence Bowl
Why is Camping World
Stadium not hosting the
Camping World Bowl Game?
Vanderbilt over NC State
Dec. 27th

plural therefore I cannot
support their team name.

military bowl, this one
has no armed forces.

Big Ten team this year so why
not beat another?

both lose this bowl game.

Cleverly-named National Championship Game Bowl

worth much if I got both the
