7 years!! This is making me feel old....

The new Playoff scenario operated well the last few years with this bowl pick’em concept. We will do this as we have in years past; Link below to last year’s league for your reference.

It is a confidence points system, you pick the winner of each bowl and then assign it a number 1-41. The game you are most confident in picking should get the highest number for that is the amount of points you will receive if picked correctly. Team/player with most points wins. In years past I have allowed teams to change their pick sets as the long bowl season goes on and I will allow it this year as well. That means your picks and confidence # are locked in at kick off of that game. **Also, don't forget to enter a score for the championship game at the bottom for a tie breaker.

This year’s Entry:
** 5 sticks entry, $8 minimum on stick value. First and second place win sticks with first sending something to the biggest loser. If we get more players this year we may add a third place payout. Open to all CP members, no asshats though as decided by the community.
Once everyone signs up we will all be on the honor system. I will assign who ships to whom once the winners are announced.
The honor system worked the last FIVE years now, we will do the same this year, do not screw it up! If you are new to CP with in the last 3 months I may ask you to send your end now and I will hold them until the end; don’t be offended if this is the case.

****Bowl games start December 16th;

Had to switch to ESPN this year, here is the link/info:

Not yet. I started last years post on 12/10 and I think they had just opened it up then, but not sure.
I am thinking they will finalize this weekend.
 
Just an update; not sure what is going on with Yahoo....but if they do not have it up by end of Sunday, I will create an ESPN group for us to play.

Dear Yahoo Sports College Bowl Pick'em user,

We wanted to let you know that Yahoo Sports College Bowl Pick'em will be discontinued and will no longer be available for the upcoming college bowl pick'em season. Your college bowl pick'em historical standings will still be viewable in your profile.

As we continue to innovate and grow Yahoo Fantasy Sports, part of that is consolidation of some of our offerings.

We thank you for being a fan and loyal user, and we hope that you continue to enjoy the rest of Yahoo Fantasy Sports games.

Sincerely,
Yahoo Fantasy Sports

I guess it’s ESPN, I guess there was no money to be made in the college Bowl Pickem’s

I didn’t remember mine, it took a couple of tries.
 
Got my two entries on there, just gotta make the selections.
 
And may I say there are some tough choices this year! Not very many "locked" in wins this bowl season!! wow
