Contest Info and Rules
First, a reminder of the new rules that went into place with the playoff system. You will need to pick the winner of the Peach Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl, the two semifinal games of the playoff. You will then pick a winner of those two teams. The tiebreakers have been adjusted to account for picking both of the championship game participants correctly (now the second tiebreaker after picking the winner correctly. The score tiebreaker has been removed since there is no guarantee that you're even predicting the score of the actual game that takes place) .
The winner of this year's challenge will receive bragging rights for the year and a place in DVDTalk Sports Forum history.
We’ll be using the tried and true big-list-o-picks method again this year. I'm going to try to keep the results updated quickly, and will post a spreadsheet with all the data on Google Drive in case I'm slow and someone else really wants to know. Those of you involved in years past should be familiar with the format.
The rules are as follows:
1) You must enter all of your picks before the first game (Dec 20 @ 2pm ET, Makers Wanted Bahamas Bowl). If you enter your picks late, any games that have already kicked off will be recorded as incorrect.
2) If you want to change a pick before the first game, you should make a new post. No picks can be changed after the start of the first game. If you edit an old post, any games before the update timestamp will be scored as losses.
3) Please post your predictions in chronological order (the way I list them below) for ease of scoring. Use the same names that are listed below in the template
4) The winner will be the person with the greatest number of games correctly picked
5) If there is a tie, picking the winner of the national championship game will be used as the first tie breaker
6) The second tie breaker will be correctly picking both of the participants of the national championship game
7) Third tiebreaker will be the most correct picks among the 10 Hardest To Call games as determined by DVDTalk. I look at the distribution of DVDTalk picks for all the games, and the 10 that are closest to 50/50 will be used. I'll post the list of games that will be included in this after all the picks are in.
8) If there is still a tie after this, I'll keep adding the next Hardest to Call game, and repeating the process until we have a winner.
9) If somehow there is still a tie, the earliest submitted pick set will be the winner

Re: 18th Annual DVDTalk Bragging Rights Bowl Pickem Championship
One of these years I am going to use my absolute lack of knowledge of college football and win this damn thing, and all the glory that goes with it!

Re: 18th Annual DVDTalk Bragging Rights Bowl Pickem Championship
PS - As the lowest-ranked (256-202 0.548) past champion, I note that I need to go 26-15 or raise my winning percentage enough to surpass better to pass jasodaub (118-94 0.554) and push him into the basement. Win 26 will be Florida's iron-clad-take-it-to-the-bank victory over Virginia in the Orange Bowl.

Re: 18th Annual DVDTalk Bragging Rights Bowl Pickem Championship
So riddle me this, peeps. Why do some of y'all reserve spots in this thread rather than just post your picks? If you come back later to put your picks in the "reserved" spot, Dr_E will know you've edited your post (timestamp evidence) and will have the extra job of reading that timestamp to ensure you didn't monkey around with your picks post-deadline. If there's a tiebreaker based on time of your picks, then reserving a spot just to secure that tiebreaker seems like cheating. And if there's some sort of bragging rights that comes from making an earlier pick instead of a later one, then again, the act of reserving a spot to secure those bragging rights feels dishonest.
So what's the deal? If it doesn't make Dr_E's job any easier, and if there's no benefit other than one involving cheating, why do it?
Asking for a friend.
