I'm just throwing this out there, but I was wondering if anyone would like to do a Bowl Pick-em thing here on the forum. No prizes except bragging rights. Just trying to garner interest here, if anyone would want to participate.

I just made a group on ESPN. Here's the url : http://games.espn.go.com/college-bowl-m ... yID=172423

Password: darkshade

If that doesn't work, try capitalizing the D. Let me know once you've joined so I don't accidentally delete you. Also, its straight picks, none of this confusing confidence stuff.

Figured it be easier to do this way so someone didn't have to go look up all the games for us :lol: . Its cool if we do it here though.
