And while I'm at it, congrats to Jimbeau Shoes for winning the regular season pick 'em game. PaJoe came in second with 6 to 4 coming in third. Your humble blogger is quite proud of himself for pulling off a tenth place finish and avoiding the humiliation of losing to his wife.

You came all the way over here to a bowl game pickum thread to troll. It’s nice to know you care.

You're giving Iowa fans a bad rap
I’ve seen this picture posted here before, but usually it’s in some sort of context.

Disagree
In the case of your own team, you give them full confidence. Always.

NO...
You root like crazy for the home team, but, in real life with real money, you never, ever bet them.

In my boring life...
this is as real as it gets.
So, I guess, when Penn State wins, yinz will get 34 points and I’ll be spotting you 15 or so points.
I always play to win!!! Especially mini-golf with my (ex) wife.

When we were recruiting Terrell Pryor we always hoped he'd help us take down Ohio State... and he did!
dumb question
first time trying this and accidentally created two entries, Is there a way to remove one?

I think all you have to do is go into the site
Click on My Groups (Black Shoe Diaries)
click on oneof your entries
then the tab “Leave the Group”.
Or…. in your entries rename one (like add a number), modify your picks a little and have two entries

My top confidence is for MSU to lose
But is my top confidence pick #1 or #34
A word to the wise ain't necessary - it's the stupid ones that need the advice.
Bill Cosby
The numbers are the amount of points you get for picking correctly
If you pick MSU to lose, and they lose, you will get the amount of points you’ve designated for that game. So, if you’re very confident, put it at 34 to get 34 points for that game. For less confident picks, put it towards 1 to either gain or miss out on only 1 point.
In summary – 34 = High confidence; 1 = Low confidence.
"In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."
I'm in
Hopefully I did everything right. I used the same SN that I have here. First time doing the Bowl Mania thing. Definitely had Michigan Sate losing as one of my top confidence picks. No way Sparty pulls the W with everything they’re going through.
Best of luck!
I'm just wondering
Who is going to come in second?
Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face
Also remember
The Heisman curse is in full effect this year — Texas is about as strong a bet as any. I know you can rationalize all you want, but the Heisman winner’s team has a snowball’s chance in hell of winning their game.
There’s also some kind of voodoo going on with the scores, either ’Bama’s only going to score 14 or Texas is going to put up 41.
"We hugged as grown men do. It was a great moment. Then, it was business as usual." -- LJ Sr.
I'm convinced the curse is broken again this year
For one simple reason: Ingram isn’t a quarterback.

the real question is
is ingram dumb enough to try a lateral early in the game, after a big run, inside the opponents 20 yd line
We decide when you hear the snap count...
texas had a defense at that point in time. Now not so much..,,
