****THE SECOND ANNUAL COLLEGE BOWL EXTRAVAGONZO***

[Condem]

Here they are . All 35 games. Congrats to Fishwax for taking the regular season. Fish achieved the worst to first deal. Damn. Some nice picking, wax!! To enuegii for runner-up status. Well done. To everyone who hung in there, you made it possible. A little healthy competition is a good thing. I'd love to see some new names in this post-season contest. It's all in good fun. Nothing at stake. And fer chrissakes, it gives you a reason to watch Miami(Oh) vs. Middle Tennessee State if the contest is on the line. I mean, why in earth would you watch it, otherwise? Without too much build-up, here they are. Straight up point spreads. No confidence shit. Hell. The spreads are hard enough. Get 'em in by kick December 18th. 2:00 PM EDT. Good luck!!

[JonLP24]

2. Uhhh....

I should be in first. :P

J/k. Nice job fish!!

Good work with this Condem. :toast:

[Condem]

3. Thanks, Jon.

Happy did the heavy work (the typing). This shit is getting as big as March Madness!!

[MadBadger]

6. I kicked Ass to finish the season after my missed week.

I think I was the worst for a little.

[Capt. America]

21. Fishwax laying pipe. Any secrets to your success?

[happyiowan]

4. Any errors belong to me...

I couldn't bear to watch Condem hunting and pecking, so I snatched away the keyboard and typed. Though it has now been edited, I saw SD State and thought, "Oh, South Dakota, how wonderful they made a bowl!" Ooops - San Diego! Shows what part of the country I live in.

[JonLP24]

5. Favorite is on the left right?

OK.

BYU
Fresno State
Troy
Southern Mississippi
Boise State
Navy
Hawaii
FIU
Air Force (Interesting match-up, AF runs a true triple option)
West Virginia
Iowa (They'll be less than 5 miles from where I live)
Maryland
Baylor
Oklahoma State (How 'bout dem Cowboys!!)
SMU (Finally an Army-Navy game between two bowl eligible teams. I may actually watch)
Kansas State
North Carolina
Nebraska
South Florida
Miami (FL)
Georgia
South Carolina
Northwestern
Florida
Alabama
Michigan
TCU
UConn (I think they may keep it somewhat close)
Virginia Tech
Ohio State
Miami (OH)
LSU
Pittsburgh
Nevada
Oregon

Can't say I put a lot of though into this. It is really hard to compare teams that play in different parts of the country. IE They don't play the same teams.

[MadBadger]

7. Here are the picks

BYU
Fresno State
Ohio
Louisville
Boise State
San Diego State
Hawaii
Toledo
Georgia Tech
NC State
Iowa
East Carolina
Illinois
Oklahoma State
Army
Syracuse
UNC
Nebraska
Clemson
Miami
UCF
FSU
Texas Tech
PSU
Alabama
Mississippi State
WISCONSIN
Oklahoma
Stanford
OSU
Miami Ohio
Texas A&M
Pitt
Nevada
Auburn

[MadBadger]

9. Condem, DJK was arrested for a whole lot of drug charges and is done. Can i change my pick?

Missouri

[Condem]

10. Funny thing, Mad.

Went to the first Iowa hoop game and some obviously large athletic donors met behind me at the half. The day after the NW debacle. I heard mention of a coke problem but thought nothing of it, at the time. How big of a problem? I have no idea.

[era veteran]

8. What bowl has the worst name??

BYU
Fresno State
Ohio University
Louisville
Boise State
Navy
Hawaii
Florida International
Georgia Tech
West Virginia
Iowa
Maryland
Illinois
Oklahoma State
Southern Methodist University
Kansas State
Tennessee Vols found a QB
Nebraska
Clemson
Miami
Georgia
South Carolina
Texas Tech
Florida
Alabama
Mississippi State
Wisconsin
Oklahoma even if the spread was 30
Stanford
Arkansas have some offense and not as slow as a Big Ten Team
Miami(Ohio) the cradle of coaches will prevail
Texas A&M
University of Kentucky ........ Fifth straight bowl even if a shitty one gives the team more practice time, think next year (again)
Nevada
Auburn will win the National Championship

Thanks for the work!

[brendan120678]

11. Thanks for the great season!

Here's my picks. I really have no idea about any of them.
Except that the Huskies are going to get crushed by the Sooners in the Fiesta Bowl.

My father-in-law will probably be going there. I've been a UConn season ticket holder for 5 straight years now and only missed 2 games, but he's only missed a half-dozen or so UConn home games in the past 20 years.

BYU
Northern Illinois
Ohio University
Louisville
Boise State
Navy
Hawaii
Florida International
Air Force
West Virginia
Iowa
Maryland
Baylor
Oklahoma State
Army
Syracuse
University of North Carolina
Nebraska
South Florida
Notre Dame
Georgia
South Carolina
Texas Tech
Penn State
Michigan State
Mississippi State
Texas Christian University
Oklahoma (I'm betting it'll be a 35 point win)
Stanford
The Ohio State University
Miami(Ohio)
Texas A&M
Pittsburgh
Nevada
Oregon

[RockaFowler]

12. I love some of these Bowl Names

Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl

Bridgepoint Education holiday Bowl

Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl

San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl

I liked it better when they were just the names of the Bowls and not all of this corporate crap. Fiesta, Cotton, Sugar, & Orange were just great names all by themselves. Is the Gator Bowl the only game left that doesn't have a Corporate Sponsor??

[brendan120678]

13. Gator Bowl doesn't have a sponsor this year...

but the past few years it was Konica Minolta, and prior to that it was Toyota.

[lazarus]

14. wow, third place

who'd have thunk it?

18. Listened to the 'Darkness' Box set AGAIN yesterday, Gus.

'got a woman I can call my best friend'. Nothing better said in the history of Rock&Roll. Seen him 10 times and as long as he's within 300 miles, I'm there.

[GusBob]

29. Yeah he is great

I am on the road alot and e-street radio on XM is my new companion, especially after progressive talk radio started bashing obama so much.
Bruce, I have been contemplating on my journeys across the land, is a true BLUE iconic american troubador. A modern day Woody Guthrie. Thanks for getting me back into him

Those romantic young boys, all they want to do is fight
those romantic young boys, callin thru the window
hey spanish johnny wanna make a lil' easy money tonight

PS: if you attended the tailgate party with the Alvarez's for the UW/IU game, we may very well have mutual acquaintences. Someday when I get PM privelages I'll check with you

[Condem]

32. Barry served time here. For a bunch of years.

I had the opportunity to talk to his son-in-law for a good deal of time. The Alvarez's are very well liked in IC. Can't say the same for Bielema.

[happyiowan]

19. Hey GusBob

I happen to think you're a damned find new discovery here in Ye Olde Sports Forum. So there.

I tried to send you a PM, but I don't think you have enough posts for me to be able to. If, however, you have the ability to send me one, I have a holiday greeting for you.

[GusBob]

28. Thank you, kind person, for the welcome

As you can see by my low post count and the length of time it took to reply, i am an infrequent, low key poster. It just seems as if internet sports forums are dominated by reich-wing cretins and knuckle-draggers. So looking for a mellower venue.
Happy holidays to you and yours and thanks for the welcome

[happyiowan]

31. Happy Holidays to you, too!

Here's a funny thing about low post counts and infrequent posting. In January of 2011, I will celebrate ten years as registered member of DU. I saw the banner while watching the inauguration of Bush and logged on during the very first days of this website's existence. The funny part is that ten years later, I still haven't reached 600 posts. So I know all about infrequent posting!! Welcome to you indeed.


on edit: ooooh look. That's not true, I just hit 601!

[enuegii]

20. Well, let's see...

One bit of trivia: it's no longer "Troy State University," but "Troy University" since about 2004. My late wife was an alum, and I'm sure that if she were still here, she would be urging me to point that out.

And, of course, good luck to everyone!

[Condem]

22. No new blood yet.

No one? Don't cost nuthin'.

[happyiowan]

23. I just saw a thread bemoaning the lack of BCS bowl interest...

Well, we've got your college bowl extravaganza right here. Everyone should feel free to join in!

[Condem]

24. Only nine players?!

C'mon people. It's the holiday season. Give the gift that keeps on giving. Not the jelly-of-the-month club. THE Sports Forum Bowl Pool. Sign up TODAY!! Only four days til' the first Bowl.

[happyiowan]

35. Fabulous, Huck! Welcome.

And please don't think I have the first clue. Often I choose based on which mascot I like better or who has more attractive uniforms. Hell, I spent half the season picking against the Ducks 'cause their uniforms suck so much.

[HuckleB]

37. I'm not a fan of the Ducks unis either.

Cheers!

39. FYI. Everybody bad news for us at home

Monday. 13 Dec. Our house broken into. Stole both our Macs and a E500 Olympus and a coule of lenses. Using a media tablet to post. We are mad and worried that it may happen again. Ruined the front door too. About $4400.00 out now. Hard to post now but will be back. Those asshole thieves may cause us to rearm. I hate living like that. Peace ya'll. R

[Condem]

40. Sorry to hear, era.

Some birthday present. Sucks. Straight to execution for those fuckers. No trial. No judge. No jury. Death.

Could be a mistake or two. Blame it on the length of the season.

[JonLP24]

52. I felt good about how I did

Even though I watched a grand total of 2 bowl games. Sun & Cotton. Boring games there. 17-16 isn't bad. Congrats to A la.

[Condem]

53. I hate to say this, Jon, being a college football junkie...

...but I just wanted to get this deal done. Way too long of a Bowl season. The BCS has ruined it. Nothing short of a play-off can fix it.

[brendan120678]

54. A winning record...

better than I hoped for.

I watched a grand total of half a bowl game this year (second and third quarter of the Fiesta Bowl) and didn't even really check up on any of the results, so I had no idea how well I did until this was posted.

Thanks!

[MadBadger]

55. And here I thought I had sucked a big one

[lazarus]

56. right at .500

not too shabby, about where I finished the regular season. Thanks for doing this, Condem.

[Condem]

57. Thanks for playing, everybody.

It's incredible that I originally posted this 5 weeks ago!! :toast:

[Auggie]

59. Thank you, Condem

[a la izquierda]

58. Shit, I won again!!

That's two years in a row!
Sa-weet!

[happyiowan]

60. Is it really over?

The bowls just should not seem like a trip to the dentist for a root canal followed by a return for a temporary crown and then back again to get the permanent crown or like Robert De Niro in Cape Fear; beat him, burn him, bludgeon him, drown him and yet he rears his head. This is the worst year ever, too many games of little or no merit and in no particular order of importance. There has to be a change.

That said, my abiding gratitude to Condem for getting us all through this thing.

[GusBob]

61. Congrats to the esteemed victors!

My congrats to the winner
My apologies for my dismal performance
My thanks to Condem for running the show

[Condem]

62. So this means we won't hear from you 'til next fall?!?

Shirley, you can't be serious.

[happyiowan]

63. Apologies for your performance?!!

Wait a cotton-pickin' minute - I did the same as you! You must be some kind of mentor for young people. I mean that with all sincerity. You have to be the most chivalrous person in this here Sports Forum. It's sad to see college football season end. Already I'm psyched for next year. And may we both be victorious. (or better at least)

[era veteran]

64. Lots o fun Condem

Thanks again for all the work! New season not that far away. I will try and go to a road SEC game. I am trying to visit all the stadiums in the conference.

[Condem]

65. March Madness is only two months away!!

Winter's half done. Yes!!
