OT: College football pick em

by chief on Aug 31, 2010 10:54 AM CDT

I almost forgot to set this up. If you were a part of the group last year, I've sent out a renewal notification to the e-mail you used for last year's group. If you didn't participate last year and want to this year, here's a reminder of the credentials:

LSB College Pick`em Group ID# 20332

Password: rangers

We're doing outright winners, plus a tie-breaker, with your lowest weekly score dropped. Good luck!

times like this I wish it was against the spread.

it weeds out all the easy picks.

example? I’d take Utah St and the +34 against OU.

had an old man that basically lived in sports books in vegas tell me

the secret to betting college football is finding the lines over 30+ points the first 4 or 5 weeks of a season and doing your research on those few teams. Those spreads tend to be padded to most and they are very susceptible to haw a coach runs his program

That and the lower conferences.

MAC, MWC, etc.

Ben Roth made me a pretty penny playing for the RedHawks. Miami (OH) was awesome.

who won last year?

I can't recall

I was probably able to see that before I renewed the group, but didn’t think to.

It looks like it was someone called ABQ Aces

NO idea who it was. Here’s the last pick em update I can find on LSB…
Last one?

I don't think that's the right link...

I think that’s the NFL Pick ‘em. I wasn’t in that one, but I did the college one. Can’t remember who won. I know it wasn’t me though.

Whoops. Looks like that's right. I just saw pick 'em and assumed that was it.

Is it just pick the winner?

Or is it pick against the spread?

Last year it was just pick the winner, and it seemed everyone picked the same games last year, so it was difficult to past anyone

Matt (Denver, CO): Congratulations, I heard you won a gold glove!
Klaw (1:18 PM) : Thanks, I had a great year at the plate!
