Some of those who used to beat me on a regular basis have joined this group lately. I feel right at home now :smile: but I am now retired so I have lots of time to calculate and improve :wink:

OK, I've made my picks but I've never done this before on this kind of board. Does the "Confidence" factor into the game at all?

Yes, and it makes picking them lots more fun. After you pick the winner in each game you can then "drag" with your mouse the games around. For instance I have Alabama picked for 10 pts. I am that confident they will win. I have Iowa picked to win but I have moved them down for 1 point. I have no confidence in Iowa at all. 55 points are possible. You can go 8-2 and score 36 points (lose 10 and 9) ..... or you can go 8-2 (lose 1 and 2) and score 52 points.

You just move the games you are more certain of to the top half (10-6 points) and the games you are least sure of to the bottom points.

OK, that makes it much more clear and much more fun. I like it!

TideFans2013 is ranked #9 (private goups) with 52 members. We need four more to go into 5th place ahead of Notre Dame, who has 55. There are more than 1000 groups on ESPN, so this is pretty amazing for our first year! Also, on the Public groups, Fans of Alabama is #1 with 3222 members ...... and it is not even close. The second place public group (Fans of Ohio State) has only 2304. ROLL TIDE !
