2008 College Bowl Mania

http://games.espn.go.com/bowlmania/frontpage

Group: Gangster BB
Passw: Corleone

IF YOU CREATE MORE THAN ONE ENTRY YOU MUST DESIGNATE THE ONE THAT WILL COUNT IN THIS GROUP, otherwise your lowest-scoring entry will count.

First pick the winner of each game, then rank the games in the order of your confidence in those picks. The higher the number you assign to a particular bowl game, the more confident you are that you have selected the correct team to win.

The first bowl game is Saturday, December 20, 2008 at 11:00 am ET and ALL selections must be final before the first game starts.


2007 Standings: DA, DB, IM, JL, DT, JG, MC, YO, KL, LN

I decided to create 3 entries, but only one for this league my other 2 entries are public based.

My picks are Satan's picks

Wow. I thought Troy had that game, but they just lost in OT from a blocked kick. Damm, well, at least we all lost, and I lost fewer pts than most. whistle

I'm right there with you, Yogi. While I gave a high point value to the one I got right (South Florida), I also got burned by Fresno State losing when I had them for about 26 points.

It seems like a few people didn't rank the games, and just picked the winners.
