***2023 College Football Game Pick 'Em Contest***

[BigJCy]

If you are interested in joining I set up a CFB Pick 'Em Contest on ESPN (Group Name: Cyclone Fanatic). Each week you pick 10 games and assign a Confidence Point Level to each game. The more confident you are in the winner of the game the higher point total (1 to 10) you assign to it. Contest starts with Week 1, not Week Zero.

Try to put your "Entry Name" the same as your user name on this board. Makes it easier to know who is who. For example, for me it is "BigJCy".

Straight up and you assign a confidence point total to each of the 10 games.

I've never done one of these. I assume you make your most confident pick #10 and least confident #1???

Wonder how they pick the games. Too bad the best game of the week, FSU-LSU, is not included.

I think they tend to always stick with Saturday only games so that's probably why they didn't select that particular game since it is on Sunday. Now the 10 they pick out on Saturday sometimes makes you scratch your head at times.

Edit: I guess they did pick Rutgers-Northwestern and that's a Sunday game so I don't know...

You can also play standard, which is just pick the winner of ten games and against the spread. So three different game formats. Been playing this game forever on ESPN, and it’s fun.

To the question about not having FSU/LSU, yes they only do Saturday games aside from conference championship week where they include the Friday games. I think NW/Rutgers was originally a Saturday game when ESPN released the game this year.
