Bowl Mania on ESPN

[gator]

Well, I apologize if this has already been started elsewhere. I didn't see it, so I took it upon myself to create a group where we can match wits, Pick 'em style. Just get hit this link http://games.espn.go.com/bowlmania/frontpage and create your entry. I don't really give a dang, but I think it's fair if everyone restricts it to one entry. This is a locked grouped, so you can't pull an entry that's doing great in another group into this group after the games start. The group is also private so you need the group name :D and the password.:D

Since I started the group, you'll have to deal with the Gator theme that I couldn't resist. It's all in good fun though.

The group name is: TebowWorld
The password is: PHarvin1

The team motto was selected just for you guys, enjoy.

NC,

You pick the games straight up, but then you rank them (drag and drop) based on your confidence in that outcome. The overall objective is to get the most points. The higher you place the matchup, the more points you risk on that outcome. For example, the highest matchup is worth 34 points (I think), so you want to put the team that you are most confident will win their bowl game there (it doesn't matter how much they win by). If your team wins, you get 34 points, if they lose, you get nothing. Each game is worth a variable number of points (1-34) in YOUR bracket, you decide how much you will risk on each of your projected winners.

Hope that helps.
