Sep 12, 2011
Curb Records/Nashville artist Rodney Atkins, who's latest hit, "Take A Back Road" is in the Top-5 on the Country Singles Chart, will be picking the college football winners this season. Rodney will be picking his top games on the popular SEC football fan site, www.southernpigskin.com. As the celebrity game predictor, he'll be offering fans a chance to get a little more insight into his football tastes throughout the season.
"We are honored to have Rodney picking games with us," said Southern Pigskin publisher BJ Bennett. "Rodney and his music are as much about the southern culture as football is in the south. He touches people through the words in his songs. He is much ACC, SEC and Southern Conference as we are. He knows college football, especially the southern football leagues. He almost beat me. It's going to be another wild and crazy year of football and we can't wait."
"The energy of college football rivals that of a live performance for me," added Atkins. "I am an extremely analytical guy and predicting these games is right up my alley, especially with a little luck thrown in. It is even more fun when I am winning and I have to say, I have fared quite well in my predictions. This season is going to be an exciting and unpredictable one and I look forward to seeing my winning percentage every week."
Atkins played baseball in college and continues to coach little league when his schedule allows. His album "Take A Back Road," will be released on October 4th. For more on Rodney Atkins visit www.rodneyatkins.com.
