Although I'm a University of Alaska loyalist since its my true alma mater, I had to drop in this thread to crow over the fact that the SDSU (my current school) Aztecs won the Poinsettia Bowl! And we beat Navy to do it!

All of us in SDSU Army ROTC are well pleased. Very Happy

I don't want crowing, I want the name of seven teams.

And I'd hurry, you're running out of games.

Sarge picks up some point with the Air Force coming through where the Navy couldn't.

The next few days is when things get nuts. Tomdincan can pick up 20 with a WV victory. A Missouri win will score Mavsfan 10 more points. ChiSox and Tomdincan can score with a Baylor win. Rydog and Mavsfan pick up 10 with an Oklahoma State win.

I'm extremely confident in my picks, so confident that I think I'm going to go 7 for 7.

Scores updates as of the Pinstripe bowl, which put Slayer from nowhere into a tie for the lead, and was our first heads-up game thus far.

A Nebraska win will score 6 people some points, including a lot of 20s. It's nice to have a team to root for in these otherwise meaningless-to-me games (Washington, of course).

Keep an eye on your games, guys, if you could post when one of your teams wins or loses, it would help.

Scores updated through Liberty Bowl. Lots of people took a hit with that Nebrasskicking. Slayer popped into the lead, and Douche is still shut out.

Douche and Dorn can score with a South Carolina win tonight. And of course, with 6 games tomorrow, we can see where things sort themselves out.

Scores updated through Gator Bowl.

Looks like only Sarge and I didn't take the easy pick in the Fiesta bowl tonight like anyone else. Who's ready for an upset?

Also, if Wisconsin pulls off the win, Cpt. Fantastic is right back in this.

Scores updated through Fiesta Bowl.

No games for a few days, two more 30 pointers after that, then we can get an idea of who has a shot to win this thing.

Looks to me like
if Auburn wins ChiSoxFan wins outright,
if Oregon and LSU win but Auburn loses ChiSoxFan wins through tiebreaker,
if Oregon and Auburn win but LSU loses Klimbatize wins through tiebreaker,
if Oregon, Auburn. and LSU win, UsaSatsui wins outright.

At least that's how it looks to me. It's late and I might be wrong. Unfortunately, I cannot win as ChiSoxFan and I both only have the championship game remaining. My only chance would be if he changes his pick to Oregon for some reason and Auburn wins. If only Nebraska didn't completely flop... oh well there's always next year!

Oregon vs Auburn for championship... right? Anyways, looks like me and ChiSoxFan will tie if Stanford and Auburn both win. If OSU takes the Sugar Bowl as well, it will be a 3-way tie with Slayer in the mix too. Oh, and you can't change picks once you have points.

Oh yeah... you're right. I don't think I scrolled down that far. Anyways my comment about switching of picks was a joke so regardless, I wasn't expecting that to happen.

Heh, just noticed this...I wasn't trying to actually join the game; I don't know nearly enough about any of the teams to make it worth anyone's while for me to participate. Just seemed better to mention the Bowl game in this thread rather than starting an unnecessary dedicated topic.

You know what I just found out? I tried this two years ago. It didn't go over nearly as well. I had completely forgot about it.

Scores updated through Orange Bowl.

I think I see how this pans out:

-If Auburn wins and Ohio State loses, Sarge and ChiSoxFan tie for first.
-if Auburn wins and Ohio State wins, Sarge, ChiSoxFan, and Slayer each tie for first.
-If LSU wins, and Oregon wins, I win my own contest. yay.
-If LSU loses, and Oregon wins, Klimbatize wins it outright on a tiebreaker (5 games picked to 4)

If the people who stand to get a 2 or 3 way tie want to figure out another way to tiebreak it (total score, maybe?), feel free. Otherwise, I'll figure out some way to split the prize so it's not insignificant.

Have em pick the total yardage of Cam Newton, both running and passing. Or make a little questionaire like:
Will there be a Touchdown of 40+ yards.
Which Team will score first.
Which Team will have the longest field goal.
Which Team will win the coin flip?
Will there be a roughing the passer penalty?
and lastly as an all out tie breaker: Total Points

Updated through Cotton Bowl.

Slayer, Sarge, and ChiSox, either you can come up with an amicable way to break the possible tie, or enjoy your $3.33 gift cards. Either way.
