Why is no spread showing for the Peach and Fiesta bowl? How can we pick them with a "TBD" in there for the spread? Or am I missing something?

Look at it again, TBD is for the spread of the championship game. The 4 teams listed are the participants (Peach Teams, Fiesta Teams). The actual Peach/Fiesta games are listed above.

In thanks. Some random spreads.

Weird how it makes you pick a national champion even though we're going to be picking that game later obviously, right?

Yes after the semifinals are played, you can submit your pick for the National Championship.

Andy somehow my name is on the list of entries twice. But in the far-right hand column, one says yes for picks and the other says no for picks!!
So I don't know if you can delete the one that has no picks or just leave it. Just letting yall know about the mix up and I only picked once!

Probably want matter anyways but maybe ill get lucky!

[ArunSh]

Bah, missed it. No way to enter now (just forfeit the first pick)? Ohh well, just been so busy at work, slipped my mind, happens! There will be others.

Same here. Didn’t Spider back in the day run a secondary bowl pool?

Thank you

2-0, baby. 43-0, here we come.

[yisman]

made picks for the wrong pool. Oops.

[Jayvegas420]

well there's at least 32 since there are that many entries already... i would guess there would be around 200 entries total?

so a crapload of work making 44 picks (and remembering to come back for champ game) for a whopping $10 worth of value... vs last year when it was around $200 worth of value

not that i ever cashed in it anyway

This

[milwaukee mike]

all these 9-3 like mine, and 10-2 are pretty meaningless so far

with 179 entries, someone is gonna have to hit the national champ game (4), and both semis (3), and at least 3/4 of the (2) pointers just to cash

[Lex_icon]

USC crushed my chances.

[play4win]

i got most wins from all those participants but i still got 1 lesser point that the number 1.
someone fix that since im #1 . and the championship game is included or not?

Yes the championship game is included and is worth 4 points.

[Napishi Na]

Didn't get to play the Bowls. Is it as bad as SBR's main event this season?

Standings are correct, you have 1 less point than leader. New Year's Day and Semi-Final games are worth more points, as is the Championship Game.

[jmtbdj]

USC crushed my chances.

What a choke job. Can't believe Riley ran it up the middle twice from his goaline when a safety was a horrific outcome and Tulane couldn't dream of stopping the pass all game long. Hurt me badly too.

Safety was the best outcome in that situation. You do not want to punt from your own endzone and have it blocked.

[TheMoneyShot]

Riley should of been immediately fired for that sh## show. Under no circumstances do you lose to Tulane.

See Post #1, the 4 New Year's Six bowls other than semifinals are 2 points, semifinals are 3 points, final is 4 points.

The contest was run on runyourpool.com so it went smoothly. A lot harder to win in this contest than previous bowl contests just because you had to pick every game but it was still a fun contest that went off without a hitch unlike the pick 6 contest.
