Well, here we are. The 2007 college football season is almost over, only the bowl games are left now. Our beloved Irish stuggled more than most would have thought this year and they failed to reach a bowl, but that doesn't mean that we can't still have some fun following what happens. For our Bowl Pick 'Em contest we will be using ESPN.com's College Bowl Mania as our format. I have already started a private group that is titled Irish Envy.

The official rules of the contest can be found at the link below and below that is a link that'll take you to a page of instuctions, but I suspect most of you have done it before anyway.

ESPN's Bowl Mania Rules

ESPN's College Bowl Mania (How to Play)

I will be including a link to the group home page as well as the password in the 2nd post of this thread, but you must be logged into ESPN.com for the link to work.

As of right now we don't have any official prizes since this was sort of an impromptu contest, but I'll try to run it by Michael and Warren as well as the rest of the staff to see if we can't come up with something. However as of right now 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will all recieve vBucks and vGifts as prizes.

1st place - $500,000

2nd place - $250,000

3rd place - $100,000

Have fun everyone!

Pretty much the same here. I picked winner's but those aren't locked in stone, and I haven't organized them yet.

It won't work if you're not already logged into ESPN.com, but if you are it'll work just fine.

At this year's game some of the BC girls were wearing shirts that read like...

Better
Chicks

So I asked them if they could point me in the direction of the girls they borrowed the shirts from. LOL!

I also told BC fans that BC stood for Back-up College, and then when they got upset and tried to have a come back I would cut them off and tell them that it was alright, little brothers are supposed to have a complex. LOL!
