    im guessing 3 u did 3 last year and were not called out in the rules like cookie monster

    but then you could probably split up and be part of teams to help get to 70 total teams

    70 is the max.

    Suppose they called you and cookie out as having most points bd didn't want you cornering the market

    There is no fixed limit on team entries, but SBR will use its discretion on multiple entries like the rules state. We want everyone to have a fair chance to participate. Please don't enter more than two solo entries as of this time, and if registration sputters out closer to, we can accommodate more multi-entries from the high rollers.

    maybe you will get lucky! you have points to spare, give it a shot! only 70 max so it will be a rather small field i think it would be foolish to pass this up.

    The 4* champ. picked at the end will be interesting. Those near the top will likely want to, in part, base their pick on what others near them might do. So I could see a bunch of people waiting until the very last minute to see what others post. Inevitably, someone will post seconds after 11:59pm EST (does 11:59:59 count?) and then all hell will break loose.

    I think a PM with the BCS pick would be the best solution.

    Huge advantage for people to wait till last second, I think they should be perfect; and SBR posts all the picks prior to game.

    Willing to be a part of a 2nd or 3rd team. Have most of my points tied up in the book now though.

    Already have a team of my own, so would want someone else making the picks for other teams I'm a part of.

    SBR forum I know many SBR PROS asking and wanting to get in this bowl contest who just dont have the large amount of points ready to go for this great event.


    Can an SBR Pro join in teams or in multiple member teams to help everyone participate even if a poster already has two solo teams?

    I realize its weeks from filling at this rate after the initial rush , but many are asking , PMing for particle points, loans with terms related to finishing cashing in the contest, , partners, point help to participate. etc.

    Don't open it up to more than 2 entries yet! Give the rest of us a chance to generate points from our BTP points.


    Tryrytry this will fill up real fast. Think about it, all you need really is 35 SBR PROS buying 2 entries each


    At least give everyone until next Wednesday after next weeks BTP for us to be able to generate points

    PO that was not the nature of the question I had at all..they have a clear and fair 2 max solo entry in place.

    what are you missing here?
