Today's game matchup:

West Virginia: Nobody
vs.
Oklahoma: Everyone

Hmmm... sounds like another upset possibly since everyone picked Oklahoma.

With four other games to go and now a 3 point game advantage, I'm going to say that DRHJ9 will be the winner of the first Arena College Football Bowl Pick'Em Challenge.

 

I wish I could say that no luck was involved, and that I knew what I was doing....actually yes I did...everyone can call 1-800-TFN-Bowl and get my picks...




5.00 a minute, and text msg. charges apply, don't miss out on a SURE thing, I have inside information on every game!!! ...

Today's game matchup:

Kansas: Rohniss, s65horsey
vs.
Virginia Tech: DRHJ9, redchedelphar, Rogue...Jedi, DarthIntegral, Obese_1_Ka-Blooey

 

Ok, Rohniss, it's me and you ... to see who sucks the most. Just as it should be in a college football showdown this time of the year. Big Ten vs. SEC. May the worst picker lose.


DRH ... do you want VIPship now, or when it's over, since you've clinched victory?

 

Bah, this is what I get for trying to get cute with my picks, and get it in first.

Tied with Inty. the shame the shame.

 

I'm pretty impressed with myself. Grumpy about Oklahoma losing like that though and I thought Oklahoma was stronger than Kansas so this could be a bad game tonight too.

 

DRH ... do you want VIPship now, or when it's over, since you've clinched victory?

It doesn't matter to me. If I clinched, then now is good, or I can take my 15 seconds of board fame untill the game is officially done.

 

Wow, I completely failed the second half of the bowl season. Hmm, reminds me of Cal.

 

Kansas UPSETS Virginia Tech 24-21.

So, at the most DRHJ9 will win by 3 games, otherwise by 1 to the least. s65horsey is guaranteed second place. DarthIntegral will either tie for the worst record or [b]HAVE[/b] the worst record. [face_beatup]

 

Man, I never win. I thought this was going to be the time, and it was for the first half or so. Well, at least I knew what victory tasted like in the beginning.

 

Rutgers demolishes Ball State 52-30.

Tulsa destroys Bowling Green 63-7.

Tonight's game picks:

LSU: Everybody except...
vs.
Ohio State: DarthIntegral

 

Ugh! I lost by 1 game! Blind loyalty to the Aggies hurt me.

 

Ah, rech, good game. And to think for the longest time it'd be me and you in the end.

 

yep. Dec 31 killed me

 

Yay, I finish at .500 and beat Inty by 2

 

Congrats DRHJ9 ... I'll get you colors tomorrow morning.

 

BTW, since i did so horribly bad in this challenge, here's an informal, non-binding poll:

Should Inty have to take on loser colors?

[]yes - Michigan's
[]yes - LSU's
[]yes - other
[] no - hasn't he suffered enough
[] no - he should be forced to resign as mod of the Arena
[] other (please specify)

 

[X]yes - Michigan's

Inty should give himself the title of "Grand Loser of Bowl Pick 'Em Challenge" or something of that effect.

Good job, though DRH19. You pulled it off late!

I like the title of "Grand Loser of Bowl Pick 'Em Challenge" plus while wearing Michigan colors.

 

Good idea. Although I'm beginning to feel a little sorry for Inty now. I mean, everything went wrong for him, not only in the picks but in the title game as well.

 

That's been happening since ... oh ... January 1 of 2007.

 

I almost didn't post that, because I figure something will come back to bite me. Though I have been doing well in these sports games so its possible I'll be ok.

I'm trying to be a little merciful and not make him wear the colors of his rival... just the team they lost too, which really isn't quite as bad.

He should rotate every other month between Michigan and LSU's colors until next season starts.
