Here’s what every SEC player will receive as bowl game gifts

One of the coolest things about bowl season is that every player who qualifies for a bowl game gets showered in gifts.

As unpaid student-athletes, seeing players’ hard work rewarded with something at the end of a long season is always nice, no matter what your stance on if teams should pay their players.

Sports Business Daily compiled a list of gifts for each of the bowl-eligible teams, all of which seem pretty cool.
