OK, i have no idea what I'm doing but I signed up.  lol

Now that's more like it. Are you in Tony? I'll give you a hint, you shouldn't pick Nebraska.

Well I knew about NIU. I barely follow college football, but I figured NIU in a BCS game was more plausible than Duke ever being remotely relevant.

And I think that its not going to be a very pretty game. Has anyone see the over/under on the game yet?

Sorry... wasn't subscribed to this thread.

That is bizzare though, since there is no setting for group size that I can find and I don't remember there being one in past years either. Seems to be working ok now though.

 

A reminder for everyone... this contest uses confidence scoring. That means rank your games in order of how confident you are that your team will win. This means that when you are picking Georgia over Nebraska, you'll want a high number and if you are picking NIU over Florida State, you will probably want a small number.

Hey, I take offense to that.  You don't want a high number, you want your highest confidence number selected... lol

I was surprised to see how heavily weighted some of you gave the U of A game.  I live here in Tucson and went for UA but barely.

Nice work to the big point getters... oh and to U of A too.

I actually had very little confidence in UA. I just wanted to swing for the fences from the get go, hence the first 2 games are my 35, 34 pointers.

Not one of us picked SMU but some of us are going to pay for it more than others.
