When is the 1st game so I know when to look at the Vegas lines to make my picks? :nod:

[CLW]

Also is "Confidence 1" more than "Confidence 39"?

I hope not because then I have to fix the whole thing.

[JBHuskers]

"The higher the confidence, the more points you get for a correct pick."

[JBHuskers]

From what I'm reading 39 confidence gives you 39 points, it's just sorted in reverse from College Pick'Em; which is what is confusing things.

The tiebreaker makes ZERO sense. It says "Enter Your Predicted Final Score" for both the semi final games but it does not put in enough spots for both teams scores. Do they basically mean our predicted over/under for total points?

[gschwendt]

Bump if you've been lazy like me... games start tomorrow at 11am ET.

Tiebreaker is for National Championship game.

Top - ORE or FSU [Winner]
Bottom - ALA or OSU [Winner]

So, I know I'm not going to win but if I do, can I get a Nintendo eShop card instead of a PSN/XBL card?

Yep, no problem, sir.

Fixed:D

Trust me, I knew ahead of time that I'm playing for personal pride. I only changed 3 games around on the list.

[souljahbill]

I'm 2-for-2 for a grand total of 3 points.

[souljahbill]

The Western Michigan jerseys are DOOOOOOOPE!

[JBHuskers]

4-1 and my loss was only 3 points. Good start so far.

[CLW]

Ditto only I have only lost 1 point. I suspect the champion of this thing is going to come down to only a handful of games and/or how we apportioned the confidence points.

EDIT: for example you have 37 points on :BYU: I have 4 on :Memphis: 41 point swing on one game.

And :Memphis: choked a 10 point lead away :smh:

WOW this :BYU: :Memphis: game is insane.

in fairness though from the video I saw the fight seemed to start after a memphis player (some d-lineman) literally just jumped up and gave a right hook to a guy and then tried to jump on top of him

[JBHuskers]

OUCH. Count me out. BYU, Fresno, Northern Illinois all in the 30's, all wrong.

Yeah 2 of my "big" games: :Marshall: (37 points) and :Utah_State: (38 points) have been correct.

[CLW]

You know for a guy that knows the script someone sure is not doing too hot in the challenge sitting at 32.5% nation wide.

40 point swing on the line here between Smooth and I in the :UCLA: :Kansas_State: game. I have 3 on :UCLA: Smooth has 37 on :Kansas_State:

Yeah, I forgot to finish setting my points picks. So these last games tonight are all big point picks. And of course, Kansas State is laying an egg so far.

[CLW]

Welp despite currently sitting in the #2 spot I have been eliminated and looks like bjrod will take home the crown this year.

[bjrod9]

Sweet! Nice run guys.

[cdj]

bjrod - Please PM me or post your console of choice. I'm assuming PSN $20 card?

[souljahbill]

I'm shocked that I came in 3rd despite missing my 37, 38, and 39 point games.

I'm even more shocked that Ram came in 2nd.

Proof that a broken clock is right twice a day.

And if everything was fixed and rigged and you are so right and so onto everything the NFL and NCAA are doing, you'd be winning it every time by a large margin, not "placing high". :eyeroll:

you have no common sense. Knowing its rigged doesn't mean or need to mean knowing the outcome. Are you seriously that intellectually childish and challenged?

I am so intelligent that I figured they have to have someone with so little experience losing a NC game but I forgot that the American populous is so dumb that they can get away with doing it... and they did

better yet, since you seem to think you know so much more then me about what you think is real football, how come I always do better then you ? You really cant think logically about much of anything

:D :D :D

So basically you're saying you're "so intelligent" that you fucked up by picking against Ohio State twice and now you're just going to use your shitty picks against Ohio State as some sort of magical proof that everything in existence is rigged. Boy you are one serious retard.

you are still the consummate village idiot with your 3 years of never maturing,childish responses. Nothing you said countered my last 3 posts in any way. And you still suck at picking Bowls compared to me. Have nice day.

[SmoothPancakes]

I don't have to counter a thing. Everything you have ever said in the last 5 months has already been countered to death. Hell, you've counter your own SELF numerous times. Better luck next time skippy.
