The first bowl game of the year has kicked off, meaning all picks are now locked and closed. Apologies to Zero, Liam, and Paul for being DQ'd for not getting their picks in in time.

Also, very classy by ESPN to rename Nevada's pistol offense as the "Nevada Formation" due to the tragedy in Connecticut yesterday.

I don't see why Liam and Paul can't still join. Just forfeit the first game, like we do in the NFL picks.

And BYU v. SDSU isn't until the 20th

Also, my condolences to the people affected by the shooting, but the pistol offense is the name. I think the fact they called it something different is kinda stupid. We can't be so shielded that anything with even the slightest mention of guns should be eliminated

First off, Anthony, the bowls have already started, meaning you can't change your pick when they've all started. I'm sorry, that's just how it is. I'll let this one slide, but next time, it's not happening.

As for today's game:

Poinsettia Bowl: BYU ([____], dish, Agent, Brewers) vs. San Diego State (Anthony, Skittle, Rob)

I don't see why he can't still change his picks. Give me a good reason why

Alright, I'll count it. I only said it, because I said before the bowls started, that the picks were locked. I guess I can let that rule go, and allow people to change their picks, and Liam, I'll count your picks, but I'm not sure if you'll allow me to make null the first two games for you, since you missed those.

I think giving him an 0-2 is plenty fair. I mean, it is only two games

Me too. Plus, its his fault he didn't submit his picks earlier. He knew the deadline.
