BG Bowl Pick Em

[Tyche]

Georgia is my 33 pointer (NC is my 34 point game even though I'm probably the least confident on it, but I like to gamble). Georgia is going to crush MSU so bad it isn't even going to be funny. I have the Big 12 4-3 (Oklahoma State, Ohlahoma, and Texas Tech losing). I don't realistically expect all three to lose, but I think 2 is very possible. As I said, the NC is my 34 pointer for the hell of it, the other 2 upsets are my 1 and 2 pointers. I think I have the SEC 6-2, but mostly because of gushy matchups. I think the only upset I have for the SEC is LSU over Ga Tech (because I'm not too confident about going against Miles in a bowl game). South Carolina over Iowa is very low confidence (ultimately went with SC because of bowl location).

[Akiyama]

I actually have Iowa over South Carolina, GT over LSU, and East Carolina over Kentucky. I have Florida beating Oklahoma as around a 10 or so confidence. I have Bama up around 31-32ish, Georgia around 33-34ish, and so on. Mizzou/Kansas are also up in the high 20's. Oklahoma State/Oregon to me is a total tossup as I think it's more of a home game for the Ducks. They are around an 8-10 pointer right now, and I've flip-flopped every day. Texas Tech/Ole Miss I'm sort of waffling on. I'm not saying I don't think Texas Tech can't beat Ole Miss by 30, I'm just thinking... will they want to? Will they really want to be in the Cotton Bowl? It's sort of like the argument Plow made eeeearly in the year about "Big Game Bob" and Oklahoma with their not showing up to non-National Championship Games.

So I dunno. I have the SEC losing some and the Big 12 losing some. The only SEC wins I'm confident in are the Bama/Georgia games. Florida I'm fairly confident in. Kentucky is a toss-up, LSU should lose to that Triple Option, Vandy is going to get absolutely crushed. Iowa/South Carolina are toss-ups as well.

Wow Tyche, I homered up CSU and actually though Navy was going to win-- I have the exact same point values on the first 2 games as LSVC, but with opposite picks for both lol.

I don't see that being the case with Tech-- who signs at Texas Tech for the likelyhood of playing for a nat'l championship?

This is quite possible the biggest game in Tech's history. Well, now that I think about it, OU was at the time lol...

[Ryany]

Thanks to my power going out for over 24 hours, I pretty much have to go with mostly the default confidence ratings. I think the only game I moved was Alabama/Utah. I guess just get them all right and it won't matter.

Yeah, well I think there's less of a chance for Tech to come out listless than Oklahoma would, but I was just saying that they deserve a BCS Bid, and instead, have to play in the Cotton Bowl against Ole Miss.

Anyway, I had CSU/Wake today so far. CSU down 1, and Wake won. Hoping Fresno stumbles out the gate in the second half like they did against Boise.

[Koyuki]

I'm going to do so fucking bad. I should have spent more time on my picks! >.<

[Tyche]

My picks are worse. Fresno already cost me 25. I'm 100% confident in all my picks, how could I rank them? The answer is that I couldn't, so mine are disastrous.

[Akiyama]

If Arizona holds on, at least I'm 4/4 today.

[Gregorio]

There's been at least 45 turnovers in this BYU game and there's still lots of time to go.

[Gregorio]

Oh and Fresno State was my 29 pointer and BYU is my 33.

[Akiyama]

STOP FUMBLING ARIZONA!

[Akiyama]

While I know it won't last... I'm the last undefeated guy in Bowl Pick em, rofl. I'll probably lose that in the next game, but eh.

[recuperi]

I could've sworn I picked Colorado State and Arizona yesterday before I went to sleep. I must have just dreamt it

[Tyche]

I thought I picked Arizona too, and I was all happy that they were winning. Go and check the standings and I fucking have BYU. wth. My LVSC bracket is in 3rd, I get to take credit for that if it wins right?

[Akiyama]

Haha. I have one by that too on Yahoo. 3-1 on there. D: Thanks Vegas!

[Plow]

Awesome day for me. Won my 4 and 6 pointers, lost my 16 and 32 pointers.

[recuperi]

I think that's about what happened to me too, but I didn't really put a whole lot of thought into the confidence ratings. I figured the Colorado St/Fresno game would be good, but apparently accidentally left it in the 30's

[Akiyama]

Aaaaaand perfect no more. Bye bye 14 pointer.

[Plow]

FUCKFUCKFUCK How do you convince yourself to throw on 2nd at 6 at the 10 yard line in overtime FUCK.

Way to cost yourself a couple mil there.

[Bregor]

I didn't get to watch any games because I was visiting my girlfriend's family in Cleveland last weekend. But wow, BYU (byebye 30 pointer) and Navy (31 pointer) really boned me. That's the last time I vote for non-BCS vs. BCS schools, I wish I could change my remaining picks already.
