College Bowl Challenge

Once the college football bowls are all officially announced, you can receive a pick sheet.  The entry fee is $10 and anyone can participate.  There are a total of 20 games to pick.  Each person may submit a maximum of 2 pick sheets.  Here is critical information and some changes regarding the College Bowl Challenge.

1.  You must have you pick sheet filled out completely.

2.  You must pay your entry fee before the first game starts.  Failure to pay on time will result in your entry being voided.  You can pay by cash, check or credit card. Use paypal for credit card payments, click here for credit card payment,  If you bounce a check, I void your entry and I come after you for bank fees, don't do it!

3.  College Bowl Challenge is a confidence pick pool.  You will pick the team whom you think will win the game.  You will then determine how confident you are of each pick by assigning it a number from 1-20.  You will earn the value/points you assign for every correct prediction.  The person with the highest point total wins.

4.  There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes.  The financial breakdown will be as follows; a $25 administrative fee will be taken off the top.  The remaining monies will used towards prizes.  First place receives 60%, second place receives 30% and third place receives 10%. 

5.  The number of participants will be cutoff at 150.  More participants would force me to charge an administrative fee.

6.  Results will be updated via email.   I will send out results on the morning of January 1st and after the final bowl game.  The results will be in adobe acrobat form.

7.  The tie breaker will be two fold:  The first tie breaker will be determined by overall pick record, the second tie breaker will be points in the championship game.  I have changed the tie breaker in an effort to reward those who correctly pick games correctly.
