It's College Bowl season, the most wonderful time of the year! Unless you're a fan of a team that went 2-10 overall, and 0-9 in conference, didn't win any game since mid-September, and lost its final two home games by a combined score of 93-7. Then it pretty much sucks.
But BG Bowl Mania is back. You can pick the winners of all 42 bowl games, and rank them from 1 to 42 by confidence. The more confident you feel about a game, the higher you rank it, and the more points you get for picking it correctly. Player with the most points after all 42 bowl games wins, and gets their name on the list below. Eventually, we're going to run out of space on that thing, I suppose.
As an added bonus, because there weren't enough crappy bowl games between 5-7 teams this year, ESPN is graciously allows us to select the winner of the Celebration Bowl - an ESPN-made for TV game between the best FCS teams from historically black college conferences that didn't make the FCS playoff. Bonus! C'mon North Carolina A&T, beat the crap out of Alcorn State! (You can tell North Carolina A&T is a primarily black college because if it weren't, it would be North Carolina T&A. Priorities, man).*

Sign up, rank your teams, and feel free to never check in again! Woohoo! If you were involved last year, you should just be able to hit Rejoin, although I did change the password, so that may or may not affect your ability to do so.
