You should still feel bad
Three more entries are now on the site, and today they're all guest entries as I took a day off to recuperate before getting ready to do two entries tomorrow:
Who saw that coming with Baylor and Washington last night o_O
On this last day of 2011, we have FIVE entries on the site today for Bowl Blitz Invitational to cover all of the action:

Thanks Jeff! I'm still overwhelmed by all of the people who have contributed their time and effort to this project. Definitely means a lot to me.
Some real close results in the Bowl Games so far today, as Chris' Texas A&M score was 1 point off from their actual score and Tommy's Georgia Tech score was also 1 point off from the actual score. Unfortunately, the scores for the opposing teams weren't quite so close, meaning the closest result for the Bowl Blitz Invitational so far remains my playthrough of the 2011 Little Caesars Pizza Bowl; 7 points total.
I would have been in great shape had Al Groh had enough sense to call a proper defense on 4th & long. Instead Utah scores on a fade route to send it into overtime. Before that I was +1 & -3 for the scores.
I was thinking for a while there that my "record" would be shattered with the Sun Bowl score today. At least we both did better than JB did with the Alamo Bowl result
Well, psusnoop just got our first EXACT SCORE from the Chick-fil-A Bowl, as Virginia scored 24 points in both his playthrough in NCAA Football 12 as well as in real-life against Auburn. Unfortunately, Auburn's score was 30 points off
The New Year brings with it a heaping helping of new entries in the Bowl Blitz Invitational at Stat Box Stories, as SIX entries are published live on the site today:
- 2012 TicketCity Bowl -- Houston Cougars at Penn State Nittany Lions by psuexv
- 2012 Capital One Bowl -- Nebraska Cornhuskers at South Carolina Gamecocks by cdj
- 2012 Outback Bowl -- Michigan State Spartans at Georgia Bulldogs by SGdirtyburt
- 2012 Gator Bowl -- Ohio State Buckeyes at Florida Gators by psuexv
- 2012 Rose Bowl -- Wisconsin Badgers at Oregon Ducks by Paakaa10
- 2012 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl -- Stanford Cardinal at Oklahoma State Cowboys by Paakaa10
Today's early Bowl Game action brings a new "clubhouse leader" in the race for whose playthrough in NCAA Football 12 will most closely match the real-life score. psuexv's time with the 2012 Gator Bowl resulted in 19 points for Ohio State and 24 points for Florida; the real-life score had Ohio State finish with 17 and Florida with 24, meaning that the Florida score was perfect and the Ohio State score was only TWO POINTS OFF!
It'll definitely be tough for anybody else to top that unless they manage to get the exact final score of one of the remaining games.
LOL just a bit off on that Auburn scoreWell, psusnoop just got our first EXACT SCORE from the Chick-fil-A Bowl, as Virginia scored 24 points in both his playthrough in NCAA Football 12 as well as in real-life against Auburn. Unfortunately, Auburn's score was 30 points off
After a busy weekend of entries, today we go back to only a single entry as there is--sadly--only one college Bowl Game on the schedule. At least it's a BCS Bowl Game.
2012 Allstate Sugar Bowl -- Michigan Wolverines @ Virginia Tech Hokies by Paakaa10
Another day, another BCS Bowl Game entry; today is the last BCS Bowl Game before the national championship game:
2012 Discover Orange Bowl -- West Virginia Mountaineers @ Clemson Tigers by Paakaa10

Playing around with You Tube's video editing. Threw together a highlight reel of all of the Bowl games that I played
You should do an audio swap to set it to music of some kind.
Not to be a negative nancy or anything, but, you ran the ball with WVU WAY too much. Smith is gonna throw the ball 45 times tonight. He's gonna have to cause we can't run the ball worth a shit.
Good idea G, it's processing now. Are there only certain tracks that I can use?
Yeah, Youtube has a library to pick from, though there are a fair number. Most aren't too recognizable but you can probably find something to suit your needs.
