CFP Bowl Pick'em

Postby Eric » Sun Dec 04, 2011 11:57 pm

Ok, I'm sure all of you guys have done the bowl pick'em with confidence points. Just make your picks, assign a value 1-35 depending on how confident you are that your pick will be correct with 1 being the least confident and 35 being the most confident. When making your picks, to keep it simple, just write down the number of the game in the list, your pick, a dash, and the point total. Such as...

1. Wyoming - 1


We'll keep track of the straight-up and the point totals so we'll know who won each style of game. If you'd rather not put a point total, then you don't have to, although I'd encourage it since it seems more fun 8)

The preceding statements are solely the opinion of GoBoilers and are, therefore, probably not based whatsoever on fact, research or more time in thought than what was required to physically type them. They're probably correct anyway, so you shouldn't argue too much, because otherwise he'll just blather on forever. On the internet Al Gore invented.

Eric, I tried to send you a PM, but kept getting a message that I had not selected a recipient. If you like, I will create a separate spreadsheet that will automate the point value bowl pickem, as well as, the straight up.
