    How does the confidence column work?

    Pretty sure you get 1 point for your lowest confidence pick and 42 for your most confident pick. That's how I played the regular season anyway and got second place!

    Just remember the number is how many points you get if your picked team wins outright (no point spread). 1 gets u 1 point for example. Your least confident pick should be 1. My first season I thought the points were revere of that lol

    And you can move around your picks LC to any spot u want to place that pick with the move tab to the right of each pick

    No just pick your least confident games as a 42 and higher numbers and most confident a 1 and you'll do great.

    Dion, did you create a capital bowl mania account? You are not showing up on the group list. Like Creek said, gotta sign up before Saturday!

    I submitted my random off the wall picks this morning. I think they went through.

    I had a colonoscopy yesterday so forgot about my entries.

    Hope I'm in. Good luck fellas :hookem:

    Its a marathon LC, its really tough to judge because some may have played their high picks so far where some have not ... way to early to stink ... yet :) plenty of time to stink later though!

    Keep plugging LC. We are not even half way. Sprinters can fade, plodders can climb. In my best coach speak, there is a lot of football to be played!

    It looks like you did not move around the confidence picks or did you intend to play games 1-13 in order so far? You can still move around any unplayed games so feel free to switch around your points for any unplayed games based on latest info or hunches you have

    I had a colonoscopy right before the deadline so just haphazdly entered my picks. I was still droggy so didn't really mess with the confidence picks. It's gonna take pure luck for me make a move.

    Just now saw this. I have an account but I guess I did it wrong. I picked all the games though.

    Temple was going to be my #42 pick until Ruhle took the Baylor job so I moved it down to #34. Kudos to Badass for picking WF at #4. If Temple can't come back then I'm most likely done. And I may just swear off prediction contests for good.

    Thanks IDE! Don't give up. You are reigning regular season champ and solidly in 2nd. And I have some swag upsets left which could bite me in the backside!

    Arkansas up 24-0. Exact number of points I flushed down the crapper. If I'm still around next year I'll be employing the flip a coin strategy.
