Bowl Pick 'em

[rockdale80]

I am doing a bown game pick 'em like I always do. It is $20 bucks a person and all you do is pick the winner from each of the bowl games. You can PM me your picks and in return I will send you my address so you can send me the money. Money is due before the first game is played(DEC 20th, 8:00 P.M.), so if your money is late you dont play. I have about 25 people doing this already so it should be a pretty good pot. (and about 20 more that are probably going to do it)I will make a final sheet with everyones picks and send it out to everyone so they can see how everyone else is doing, or I can post it and maybe have it stickied at the top. Just send a PM with who you think will win each game, and the final score for the Orange Bowl and the Rose Bowl. This will be used in the event of the tie breaker. I.E. if you think Texas will win then put how many points they will score and how many points USC will score like this Texas 90 USC 3.

With all of the PROFESSIONAL football analysts in here and there are no takers? :eek:

[mustangsince87]

im gonna predict on the only one i care for the EV1.net Houston TCU (10-1) vs. Iowa State (7-4) TCU will take this one easily as long as coleman is gettin it done on defense and ballard and rodgers are hooking up with some good passes and letting hobbs and merrill and price get it done on the ground

Are you going to put everyones pick on here? If there are about 50 people thats a pot of 1000, do you get a cut of it for your time?

Not unless I win. Winner takes 65%, 2nd takes 25%, and 3rd takes 10%. If I cant post it all on here (size allotment) I will email everyone a copy with everyone on it and their picks. It is just something my friend and I have been doing for about 7 years now. Last year we had around 80 people do it. Everything just depends on how many people do it this year. I managed a restaurant around this time last year, and had several bar patrons and employees do it. Not sure how mayn are going to do it this year, but everything depends on how many get in on the action.

No gambling allowed in association with 3ADownlow. If you really intend to do this, it MUST be done via pm only. Do not involve the site please.

I gotta do some research to make sure you don't have a chance in that tie.

[whtfbplaya]

It's not gambling its guessing with style:D

[WestTXLonghorn]

Kansas over Houston
Oklahoma over an overrated Oregon
Tx Tech big over an Alabama squad who has never heard of the word TD
Texas over the Hollywood chumps (I'll be there!)

[briefcase]

I agree with all picks except Houston will beat Kansas.
