Official Lines & Picks thread for NCAA Bowl Contest[registration is closed]
Deadline to enter picks for ALL Bowls: Friday, December 17th at 12:00 NOON ET.
· MUST post all 15 picks in ONE entry. Picks must be Five 3*, Five 2*, Five 1* plays. NO EDITING OR PICK CHANGES ALLOWED except to replace Cancelled Bowls or Matchup Changes. Deadline for replacement picks will be announced as Cancellations/Matchup Changes happen.
· We will collect the mandatory 16th and final pick for the Championship game beginning on Wednesday January 5th. We will send a PM to each entry / team captain collecting the pick. The final pick is due by Friday January 7th at 11:59PM ET. A tiebreaker of total points will also be collected, see original thread for details.
· No discussion in this thread other than announcing Cancellations/Matchup Changes and announcing deadlines for Replacements, other than that, only pick entries allowed.
· After deadlines for replacement picks for Cancellations/Matchup Changes are announced, if you fail to meet the deadline, pick will be scored as a push (half units) on both sides. In the event the time or venue changes but match-up remains the same for any of the posted lines, all picks have ACTION.
