2011-2012 Yahoo Sports College Football Bowl Pick'em

[TrueGritnPluck]

Bump - need more players, especially with the huge prize package involved. The games start in just a few hours!

 

[BamaGoose]

Just signed up. :biga:

 

[ccc2259]

I'm in........great idea, and thanks to all for setting this up!

 

[mulletover]

Wow, 60 people have signed up that's great.

Go Utah State.

 

[mulletover]

MO, I think just the point total of the BCSCG would be enough; you won't have more than a 3-way tie (IDT), and closest to point total wins. Closest to point total under wins in case of a tie there (1 over, 1 under but same difference), and as a backup (third tiebreaker)- first one to post it. Post predictions on the message board on the game site - they are time/date stamped.

Ya, I see what your saying. And this way no one has to make any additional post or predictions. We simply add the total of their initial tie breaker and compare. It works for me....as long as the persons tied don't pick the same score....say 24 - 13 for example...yes I'm looking at you CajunCrimson. lol

This won't work, don't know what I'm thinking about (coffee hadn't kicked in yet when I posted, and I went to see John Prine last night and got in late - excuses, excuses ).

 

[mulletover]

Let's just go with the original settings and assume the methods aren't broke. If there's a tie we'll rock-paper-scissors on Skype.

Let the games begin....oh by the way just for fun, my guess at the collective score from all bowl games is (drum roll) 1185.

Well some teams didn't show up it seems lol

No kidding. SDSU really dissapointed me. Utah State had the game in hand and couldn't finish. Overall I think the first three games were very competitive and fun to watch.

There's still a lot of football to played so anything can happen.

As many of you know there's some great prizes for the winners. I've put up a 25.00 gift certificate for the person who gets the Bama LSU score prediction correct. In the event of a tie the person with the best overall record wins it.

As an added bonus, the person with the worst overall record who makes all their picks also gets a 25.00 gift certificate. So don't lose interest you may find yourself winning something for being the overall loser. We'll call it the T-ball trophy. Merry Christmas everyone.

LOL! I was long jinxed before you jinxed me! Its a long way till its over and I think I got plenty of wrong guess coming. But its 5 of 5 now and I feel hopeful for 6 for 6 tonight. Of course its Boise lol! If they can't beat a sorry Pac 12 team they should never cry about anything when it comes to the BCSNCG!

That's right you get rewarded for picking the most bowl games incorrectly. Kind of neat if you ask me. I wish I'd thought of that to start with.

I didn't read the rules. :blush: There's still hope!

We have a new leader. It seems that Moan is indeed human dropping both of the games played yesterday. Here's a shout out to BamaGoose for the jinx.

1. TideMan09 9 of 10

2.bluesrulz 8 of 10

2. BeachBum94 8 of 10

2. Runtheoption22 8 of 10

2. Pain Train 8 of 10

2. jdatide 8 of 10

2. bamacon 8 of 10

2. MOAN 8 of 10

2. twofbyc 8 of 10

57. Bamamoss and bamadp 4 of 10 Thank you for bringing up the rear. Both of you lead for last place and a 25.00 online gift certificate at the TideFansStore

There are 18 players with 7 of 10 picks correct followed by 20 players with 6 picks correct. A mere 9 have picked 5 games correctly. It's still a wide open race. Good luck!!

I knew it wouldn't last long lol! Just hoping my last pick is correct!!!

 

[mulletover]

You can thank BamaGoose...lol You're doing better than me. I have a whopping 6-10. I'm right there in no mans land where it's hard to climb up to the top. I might adjust my remaining picks and try for last place. i will probably have a better shot at a prize.
