Select who you expect to be the winner of the games below.
Then guess what you expect the total point total of the Southern Miss Arkansas State game to be ( it will be used in the event of a tie ).
Best record gets something special!!

ALL ENTRIES MUST BE IN BY 11:59 SUNDAY (12/18). NO EXCEPTIONS

(PM me your choices - or you can post them in the forum - although in that case you could influence someone elses picks)
Once I have received your picks I'll edit the above (if you still want to get in, just send me your picks).
As the days progress I'll update user records, and sort them by rank on this page.

GOOD LUCK

just for that jiggs
the tiebreaker will be the total score of the ark state /south miss game

does anybody know if there is enough functionality in the vbulletin
PHP: 
 and [CODE] tags to support a user-made selection system within a post?

You all want to do a full bowl selection contest? Best record gets some special recognition under his name on the forum? !!!!
I'll help organize it if the mods agree- and if there is enough interest.
If this happens- a board member will submit a list in the forum no later than decemeber 18[sunday] 8 pm. I and maybe another will be responsible for tallying records. Tiebreaker - all members will submit what they project to be the combined scores of the Arkansas State/Southern Mississippi game, because as Jiggs has explained to us - it's by far the most important game this bowl season, hands down.
List of Interest-
Vince Young
TENNESSEE-IRISH

I suggest this:

Predict the scores of two games: SMU and ASU, plus one other...the Rose maybe?

As an extra tie breaker, pick who will score the most points and who will score the least points.

Yahoo College Pick 'Em.....good system.

What say you?

I'm in but this may lead me to other disturbing behavior like betting on spring training baseball and dog races.

I have no problem doing all of the games- I'm just going to write aquick program to database and do it all for me.Yeah I'm lazy. The only question is if you all want to choose all 30 games. Discuss? I see it as - it will take about 15 minutes to make pretty good guesses, and about 30 to make the best you will be able to- and if you want to spend more time.. more power to you?

How about this. We take the most important bowl game being played on any day there is a bowl game. That would total 14 diff games. I feel that having too few will result in a 6 way tie breaker - and now I can see that 30 is a bit too extreme.
If you all like this - these would be my suggestions.
One a day will keep interest in the competition and burn time until the ND game.
