Bowl Mania - Page 2

Just found that we can still change the confidence position of our picks. Figured I'd best move any Big 10 teams that I thought might win down to the lowest confidence end...lol Much as I love the Big 10...and I usually pick them, we don't fare all too well at this time of year

Crap! See I actually did realize you had to rank them, but I was backward in my thinking apparently in ranking! I thought you ranked them in confidence, meaning 1 was the most confident and 39 was the least confident....Didn't realize thats how many points you would get for each pick!!!

I would have had 183 points by now!

I'd like to personally thank Oklahoma for showing up tonight. Wow !

I switched two games and forgot to "save" my switches. Damn. I think we all need to read the instructions more carefully.......

Buckeye Jack · 12-30-2014, 08:07 PM

Damn you Notre Dame.....that was my 2nd most confident game....

hotreds · 12-30-2014, 09:16 PM

My heart was with the Irish, but my head said LSU. Oh, well......

jledou · 12-31-2014, 07:08 AM

Forgot to check in on this and looks like I had a bad run there for a few days. Notre Dame had to throw the wrench in my picks yesterday. Looking forward to the next two days of games, should be some great football watching!

Dave- I know it's not technically over yet, but it's over. Feel free to PM me your address any time.

Rockestone · 01-03-2015, 11:58 AM

Well, that was just plain awful!

Oh well....Go Ducks!

Maybe I'm reading it wrong....but if you picked Championship winner correctly....but I don't...you would win....no?

Of course, nobody can catch Hotreds. Nice game, Hugh!!

True. We'll see how it plays out.

Congrats, Hugh!

Buckeye Jack · 01-08-2015, 10:20 AM

That was fun....Haven't done one of those in awhile. Maybe I'll actually fill out a March Madness bracket this year! Congrats Hugh!

hotreds · 01-08-2015, 10:47 AM

Made watching the games more fun!

jhedrick83 · 01-13-2015, 06:31 AM

Dave-

Congrats! Now you owe me an addy.

dave · 01-13-2015, 07:40 AM

PM incoming.

I changed my pick on the last game a few times. Finally picked OSU about 15 minutes before the game. Looks like it wouldn't have mattered to our wager, but it makes me feel good.

Thanks for the game, guys

Brian D. · 01-13-2015, 12:08 PM

Don't they still have a couple of meaningless 'All Star' type college bowl games to go? Why would any player whose theoretical next stop is the NFL, take a chance of screwing that up by participating in one of those and getting hurt before the Combine?

dave · 01-13-2015, 12:11 PM

Only one that I'm aware of is the 'Senior Bowl'....and I thought that was just for the kids that didn't expect to play again after this January....the ones that are going to find out just how useful 3/4 of a degree in Agricultural Journalism is.

Brian D. · 01-15-2015, 05:36 PM

You could be right, Dave.

dave · 01-16-2015, 10:30 AM

Yesterday I received a VERY nice 6-piece sampler from jhedrick83 that was anchored by an Anejo that was flanked by a bunch of other GREAT cigars. Thank you, Jesse.
