Join the fun and enter into the Bowl Game Pick'em Contest. Pick each game and assign a point confidence level to each game. Obviously person with the most points at the end wins.

Picks just need to be made before kickoff of each game. 1st set of Bowl games are Friday, Dec. 16th.

Below is the link on ESPN to join. Group name is called: Cyclone Fanatic and Password is: clones

To make it easier to track who is who please make sure your "Entry Name" is your username on Cyclone Fanatic. For example, for me it is: BigJCy

You can edit your Entry Name if you need to by clicking on the "Gear Wheel" under the words "Create Another Entry" on the "Make Picks" Page.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm still struggling with confidence levels this year. :(
Yep same here. Seems more difficult than past years and that's with not even knowing all the "opt-outs" yet.

Unless I'm overlooking an option, ESPN's interface is terrible -- you can't slide up/down? Have to go in to each and "move here"?
Yup. And double check, because if you move them in the wrong order, putting one or two up at the top will screw every change you've already made.
