"Unofficial" FCB College Bowl Pick 'em

[Greg Cleveland]

I did this on Beckett during the College Basketball tournament, and thought it would be fun to try this here. This is through ESPN.com's College Bowl Mania game. Make straight picks for the winners of all the bowl games (There is a confidence game, but that would be nuts. Who knows anything about Rice/Western Michigan, anyway?) and we'll see who knows what about college football.

So go here-- http://games.espn.go.com/bowlmania/group?groupID=16680
Log into or create an ESPN account.
Our Group name is FCB Bowl Pick 'ems. Password is fcb rocks (lowercase.)
Create a team name, and make your picks.

If folks want to create a prize pool of goodies, that would be great. I will dig through a few things to see what may turn some cranks around here. Hope to see you in the group!

I will provide this card to the prize pool

 

[WoundedDuck]

Joined up already. I love the idea.

I'll probably still need to go back and change some of my picks before the games start, but at least I'm in.

I don't have a ton that I can throw into a pot for the winner, but I suppose if we get a pot going, I could toss in a sketch if that would be something people might want.

 

[Greg Cleveland]

BTW, first bowl game is the 20th, so you have a little over a week to get in.

 

[dodgers22fan]

I'm signed up. I can also add in something for a prize pool.

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Here's a couple of oldies to throw into the kitty.

So get on board! Everything added to the kitty is appreciated!

 

[gt2590]

Cool idea! I'll find something to throw in the prize box too.

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Here's a couple more goodies for the prize kitty. (and a bump to remind folks to sign up. I'll bump it every so often until the 20th. The more, the better.)

 

[WoundedDuck]

I'll throw this into the prize pool if it's something that people might want:

Also, do we want to send the prizes to a central location before the contest starts or should everyone just individually sent the winner their prize? I vote on the second, that way I won't have to send anything when I win :lol: .

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Saturday night bump.

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Update: We have 11 people signed up. Time's getting short! First games begin this Saturday! If anyone who signs up wants to add to the prize kitty, that would be great!

I'd say we can send prizes directly to the winner. Address can be PMed or posted on the contest page at ESPN. Either way. Everybody needs to put up or shut up! (well, not everybody,)

Go Gators!!!!



I can add a 2006 BCDP Tommy Hickman auto refractor into the pot

 

[Billy Packer]

I just signed up and I'll post something for the kitty this weekend. Thanks Greg!

 

[Jock176]

Im adding these to the kitty...tried to post Friday night but had major computor problems

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Nice Hernandez! Thanks for adding to the kitty. Too bad (for me) I'm typically stinking up the place. Hats off to Lum who is a perfect 4-0 so far! At least no one has been skunked!

 

[WoundedDuck]

bump to identify the winner

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Winner is bodisurfa! (Lum) Once he PM's me his address, I'll pass it along to those who have offered a prize towards the kitty, and then they can send it directly to him. Fun contest, great game last night, and congrats to bodisurfa!
