    You can't win this contest on the first day of games, but you can damned sure lose it on the first day of games.

    This contest is the hardest to win. You have to get the pick correct and assign it the best possible value. I think the contest takes away a lot of risk aversion. Most just will not give up Double Digit points on a team when in reality a lot of the bowl games end up being blow outs. The most important thing in my capping for this contest is not who is the best team, but which team is the most motivated to play in an exhibition game in which no one cares about. Coaches leave, players get suspended or boycott, players don't want to get hurt, and most of these teams are spending the majority of the time seeing what young players can do in the 15 practices versus practicing their regular season starters. It's one big clusterfuck. If it weren't for these contests I wouldn't care about but 3 bowl games. The semis and the final.

    I went 2-0 with a 3* and 1* but moved SDSU from 2 to 1 and had UTSA and Ark St in my first draft.. With having to cap so many at once and then try to order them when I didn't really feel more strongly about one more than the other, it's easy to skip a few plays then look back at them and wonder why you didn't take them

    Gonna be cashing a 3 star pick with Tulsa in a few minutes. That count towards "stepping up"? 2-1 overall, but for the one loss, I lost a 3 star on that late TD in the New Mexico game. Blimey!

    You too? UNM game could end up being the biggest 'public burial' of the whole contest

    Hi dhristov211,

    We're already aware that your name wasn't listed in the main page for standing, but I am tracking your plays and yes, you already got 4 points. Can you please check your PM, it was sent early this morning regarding the 2 concerns. Thanks!

    Gotta click in the list you want to scroll, and then use the arrow buttons for up , down and side to side. Then you can see everything. Took me a bit to figure it out too.

    Anyone remember what score won it last year? Tried looking for it but seems the thread was removed since the only reference I can find to the bowl contest was nominated posts from the congratulatory thread (which was also removed)

    It's too early. The leaders will change every game. I'm glad the standing are updated as frequently as they are.

    It was a little inflated because 80% of the field had Louisville. This year over half had New Mexico

    you want to go into the final game in the low 20's. mid 20s would make you sitting pretty

    ...and SBR, as much as I want Old Dominion to win...I have 6 points, not 8 :-)

    The sheet is already fixed as it is, I can't do any changes as it will affect all the existing data, the reason your name is not added till this moment. I see that you've transfered the required points for the solo entry and for that I will continue to grade your picks in a separate sheet. Thanks!

    I have already lost a 1* and a 2* so if Idaho takes a bad loss today it's pretty much over for my chances of winning. Bad line to boot. May become a top candidate for the last place lol
