For the record, what we will do is tally up the confidence points and also keep track of the straight-up winner (just the person who gets the most total picks correct). For the record, please, please, please, PLEASE, when entering your picks, use the exact name that I use in the official list and use the basic format shown here (drawing from my example):

    1. Nebraska - 35
    2. Oklahoma - 34
    3. Southern Miss - 1

Something like that. Just a simple dash and then the point total.

I'm going to create a computer program that will tally up the points and games pick correctly. I will sort through the entries just in case somebody has a typo (or for Howdy, feel free to use caps), but it would make my copying and pasting life a lot easier. Mucho gracias 8)

Sure looks like people have trouble following instructions. :D


What instructions? I see about 4 ways this is being entered. Eric, you may need to have a conference call to teach us!
Eric gave the example and surprisingly, you did it correctly.....

Eric, I have built a spreadsheet to update the results and will post it. I have noticed some errors on the entries.

Boiler can update his confidence points and let me or Eric know how he wants them changed and we will fix it. Thanks for making the spreadsheet Razor.
