      Are we doing that? Because that would be fun, what with 9 P-12 teams playing and you could include the Playoffs.

      Yes we will do some bowl pickem games, at least one.  We could pick them all or do X per week or just do the pac-12.  Not really sure.  Thoughts?

        Not sure you guys are aware but we have our own pickem game here.  That’s what we will do. Just wondering what games or schedule sine the bowls spread out over a few weeks. We will probably do something similar to last year.

          The in-house pick em game is fine, but the confidence points add another layer of intrigue. People mostly just pick against the underdog anyway, but with confidence points, it takes a bit more skill. Can u incorporate that into the utehub pick em?

            Not this football season. How do the confidence points work? I’ve never looked at the yahoo or espn pickem game.

              you assign each bowl pick to a number value 1-32(or how ever many bowl games there are). So if you put Utah winning their bowl as 32 then if Utah wins you get 32 points, whereas whatever game you put at 1 you only get 1 point if you get it right. The winner of the pickem is whoever tallies the most points. So picking 20 games correctly might not win it for you if you missed out on the largest point values.

      I like the weekly bowl game option, but you gotta have a quick turnaround time, lol.

        Yeah that’s the hard thing. With quick turnarounds you’d get 5-10 people playing is all.

      I think we should have one long contest with all the bowl games.
