I just upped my picks. I love college football. I bought tickets to go to Memphis on new years eve and watch UGA play. I have never been to a bowl game and have never been to Memphis so I am stoked.

Reluctantly signed up. Confidence points? I would rather pick with a point spread, or just straight up winners. I never know what to do with confidence points- lol.

Dang Miller is still perfect after 6 games....you weren't kidding you can pick just straight up winners.
Re: S7 College Bowl Picks - (First Game Dec 18th)
Yeah, I got robbed on the Southern Miss/Louisville game but I still feel pretty good sitting at 4 of 6.
Oh and don't worry Coolhand, the Tigers are taking it all the way.

Well, as long as you keep picking right, you'll eventually take the lead. Keep up the good work Miller.
As far as the points go... This is my first "pick em" type of thing I have done. Seems pretty simple. Either leave them alone completely or move up the games you are more sure about and move down the games you are less sure about. For example, if a game is a close call, both teams are equally matched and you're really not sure who is going to win... move it down. If the teams are unbalanced and your confident of the winner, move it up.
Basically, you want to win the high point value games and only lose the lower point value game. Of course, if you keep up your percentage, it wont matter and you'll win the whole thing by the end.

I watch a lot of college football and I could not believe how this bowl season turned out.
Congrats to Miller though he is a prognosticating fool!!

Crazy season indeed. I mean who picks Tulsa over Hawaii... in Hawaii? Miller that's who. Congratz man. You sure can pick em. I was happy with my later season picks and climbed back up from last to 3rd. Not too bad for my fist bowl season.

Re: S7 College Bowl Picks - (First Game Dec 18th)
I took Tulsa too, but that's because I'm living in Tulsa - sometimes my heart picks winners even though my mind was saying "no don't be dumb." Picked em on principle and it payed off. I often get burnt by picking too many Big 12 teams to win.S7 Interseptor wrote:Crazy season indeed. I mean who picks Tulsa over Hawaii... in Hawaii? Miller that's who. Congratz man.

I think you're right about that. Are all these games rigged and Miller has an inside source? Maybe. Or is his noobtube loving arse just luckier than us? However he does it I want to learn. Matt, you could have made a fortune with some real bets...S7 K1ll3rKlown wrote:Didn't Miller win last time?

It must be the mafia ties. LOL. I also won the Fantasy league. And The Tulsa pick was a good one- they used to be rivals in the WAC, and Tulsa had a great year this season. Heck, they beat Noter Dame, which is a big win for a mid major conference like Tulsa in conference USA.
