If someone can setup one where you just pick the games based on spreads, I'd join that too in addition to the one Aaron setup at Yahoo. I'd actually prefer it. I'm not a big fan of the "confidence points".

EDIT: I managed to get into the Fox Sports group you created, but I noticed it's set up with "bonus points", which is really the same thing as confidence points. I'm going to set up one at Fox Sports where you just pick against the spread and there's no bonus points, that way we can have it both ways (one at Yahoo w/ confidence points and one at Fox Sports without). Hope that makes sense.

Okay, so in addition to Aaron's Yahoo group, I've made a new one at foxsports.com where you simply pick the games based on the spread. No "confidence points" are used, so you just get a point for each game you pick correctly. This way, I figure we can have two groups where different formats are used (Aaron's Yahoo and this one).

If you want to join, go to FOX Sports Fantasy - College Bowl Pick'em
Then, once you have everything set up, search for "The DRC II" under private groups. The password is siriusxm.

It is fair with me.

I can't get logged on to make my picks...

edit: Forget it. I figured it out. I'm so dumb...

Good luck to everyone in the league! Games start bright and early (10:00 am here) tomorrow morning with the EagleBank Bowl between Wake and Navy.

Navy loses a game much closer than the final score indicates. Congrats to Wake Forest.

This puts me behind early...but not too far!

EDIT: I stand corrected, Aaron saw this game clearly and with much conviction!! 31 points to him with the Demon Deacon's win.

I didn't bother switching the games around in any order. I just left them as is and made my picks...
