CFB Bowl Handicapping Contest

[LT Profits]

http://contests.sbrforum.com/cfb-bowl-handicapping-contest-4231/

Entry Fee is 15 points.

This CFB contest is for the Bowl Games, ending with the National Championship Game Monday, 1/7/13. You must make exactly 15 CFB Bowl plays including exactly 5 Best Bets. The contest includes spreads and totals, with regular plays counting as 1 unit and Best Bets counting as 3 units. Standings will be based on UNITS.

Note: If there is a tie in units, the tiebreaker will be Action Points, which is now many points you beat the spread by. If still tied after Action Points, the prizes will be split.

Point allocation depends on number of entries:

Members 1-9

Some games also only have lines listed for one side, not both (Ball St is an example). Should be fun though.

[BeantownBlue]

This is great. Yea.. I don't know why some bets are excluded... but it will be fun.

No the system always adds a day when the contests open, which is why it says the 7th now.

Thanks, BTP was having some similar issues too, SBR took care of it, wonder whats causing them though.

[biddy_24]

Count me in -- Going to be fun to win this

[LT Profits]

It may not get looked at until Monday, but that's fine since Bowls don't start until Saturday.

In - thx LT for running some contests/fantasy

[LT Profits]

Techs have been made aware. Do NOT make picks on backwards lines, those that already have will be deleted anyway.

[LT Profits]

Good thing bowls start Saturday. Should all be fixed today (please God).

[LT Profits]

***ATTENTION*** ALL picks made on the games that had reversed lines have been deleted, including those made with "good" lines before they somehow got reversed. Thus check you pending plays and see if any plays need to be re-entered.

[convick]

Thanks LT. There is still a pending pick at +10 on Utah St.

[LT Profits]

The nightmare continues. I re-entered plays, screen said they took and top said 0 picks left in red. I hit "Main" and I am back to 12 pending. I hit Make Picks to check and top now says 3 picks left. Lou has been made aware of the issue.

[LT Profits]

Crap that's a bad sign because that line was right when I looked, meaning it flipped twice (good to bad to good). Hopefully everything will be good to go soon.

[LT Profits]

OK I just went down the consensus one by one through 35 games and it looks like the one Utah State +10 is the only bad play left.

That line was weird. I noticed on the cross-sport weekly contest it also switched.

Noles1992, see if you can re-enter Utah State both in Bowl contest and Cross-Sport

Ya, I had the same problem, hit submit, 1 play added to pending, but not the rest. Hopefully this gets solved sooner rather than later. Thanks for keeping us up to date LT.

[Noles1992]

[LT Profits]

OK everyone try re-entering plays. Working fine on my end.
