    Pretty simple layout using confidence points. 41 bowl games equals 41 points. You may only use each point value once, put more points on the teams you have more confidence in. There is no point spread, this will be straight up but most games are evenly matched and bowls are always full of surprises. You think your conference is that much better? Back it up.

    One more note, the National Championship game is included. Obviously we won't know who is in it until after after the four team playoff so keep that in mind when making your picks.

    *must have a minimum of 5 trades with 100% feedback
    *losers will send minimum of 2 bombers or equivalent of 44 oz of 90+ rated beer not available in targets distro; extras not mandatory but always appreciated and usually included
    *if you fail to send, I'll call you out as a bad trader and let everyone know you're a scum bag
    *trash talking encouraged
    *the tie breaker is the predicted score of the Championship Game...use it, it may come down to that
    *please use your BA name when you sign up on ESPN
    *payouts will be determined by total number of entries. Ideally I would like the top 3 to win but we would need a total of 13 (5 to first, 3 to 2nd, 2 to third...winners don't ship)

    DEADLINE FOR SIGNUPS IS December 19th.
    *First game is December 20th

    PM all of your contact info even if I already have it (name, addy, phone number and email) if interested and I will give you the group and password info. Title the pm Bowl Pick 'Em.

    *Please be patient, I'll try to respond as quickly as possible. Also, sorry for not saying hello to most of you even if I know you. I'll be keeping it short and sweet with only pertinent info.

    I'm using ESPN again this year.

    Cheers!

    Ah yes.... my sabbatical has fully recharged my batteries, and the fact the longwhorns still suck under peewee Herman has only increased my invigoration to kick Brad's ass. Details inbound, if you indeed want to include me in this thing.

    Choke away? I won it last year in epic fashion, another worst to first. I think I may have even won it 2 out of the past 3 years but I know you like to dream so keep dreaming chump.

    We need more people, this BIF is dying a slow death. I think we have 10-11 people so far (assuming they all sign up).
