College Football Picks

[smuttleydfs]

OK I'm going to put this out here and see who salutes. I'm going to put together a College football bowl pick list. This is the rules or procedures on this:

1.) The picks will be against the spread this time. For example in the first bowl, The Poinsettia Bowl TCU is favored by 13 over Northern Illinois so if you pick TCU 24-14 you are actually picking NI 27-24. Now if the final score is TCU 21-17 then you get two points. If the final score is 27-14 TCU that would be a push and you would get 1 point.

2.) An additional 3 points will be rewarded for the closest to the final score of each game. The formula will be the same for this as in the NFL games.

3.) I'll put out the first set of games that begin on the 19th until the 26th. You don't actually have to make the picks until 2 hours before kickoff of each game.

4.) I'll have the post-new years eve games all posted by the 24th of December.

Oregon 35-27
Rice 24-14
