2010 Bowl Confidence Contest!!
Bowl Confidence Contest is HERE!! Go ahead and start looking at the match-ups, write down your blowouts, sleeper picks, and get an idea of where you're going to place the different games in your 1 (not confident) to 32 (very confident) point scale.
I'll post the picksheet below and we'll have until Saturday afternoon, prior to the kickoff of the Fresno game to get your picks submitted. Once you submit your picks, you should get an e-mail from me with confrimation of your picks. It might be wise to check for that e-mail (DOUBLE CHECK the e-mail address that you list as this is where your picks will be sent) before you close the page that shows your picks. You also have the ability to print your picks from there.
For those that don't know the rules...There are 32 games. You are to list the games on a scale from 1 (not confident) to 32 (Very confident) and you get the amount of points, according to your confidence level, for each win. You must use all 32 numbers and cannot use any number more than once. Highest score wins. No bonuses, no tricks, no gimmicks.
Any questions, please post them. Good luck!!

For this contest, there was no prior weeks, so there is NO NAMES in the dropdown menu. You should see a "NEW" button just to the right of the dropdown menu where you can enter your BBB username. It will be a pop-up window. If you do not get a box, then either uncheck your pop-up blocker, or add http://www.latechbbb.com to your WHITE list, ALLOW list, or Exceptions.

Guess that answers the Q I asked on the other thread. :laugh:
Not to worry, I'm in the same boat.
Re: 2010 Bowl Confidence Contest!!
Since there does not seem to be any way to check on the competition, which many times makes you pull for a team other than the one you picked because of the points involved, I'll just throw this out there. I have tallied 263 points so far and have lost 171 points with 94 points still up for grabs. So the most points I can get would be 357. Anyone else care to share? :D :bigcry:

Keep him honest Dan :D. You and I have the same picks from here on out. I can't pass you. Throwing my stuff back in the trash can :furious3:. BTW, I had N Ill over Fresno so I hope that gets corrected.

Thanks... I picked NIU, so that helps me!!
See.... what had happened was...
The contest program only accepts a max of 64 teams (32 games), since there are 35 bowls, it excludes 3 games; usually the first 3 games. Since Fresneck was in that game, I picked it in place of the F_U / Toledo game. When I loaded the results, it told me that I had altered the picksheet and that the result may load incorrectly..... and it did. So all that to say, it's all barkinspider's fault.
..... somehow...
