College Football - New Year Bowl Season Update

Below are the current standings as we are almost complete with Bowl Season and it is still a battle between Joel, B.I., Curt, and Young.  Everyone else is officially eliminated from capturing 1st or 2nd place overall.

All updates have been made  - Bowl Games, Conference Champions, Conference Game Champions, and Points for Teams Selected to Bowl Games.  Also, updates continue for the division I-AA FCS Playoffs as those with NDSU and Towson have continued/will continue to accumulate points in addition to Bowl game points.

I am pretty sure 1st and 2nd place comes down to Florida State regardless of what else happens.  If Florida State wins then Young and Curt finish 1-2 (I think), but if Florida State loses then Joel and B.I. finish 1-2.  I didn't see a scenario where B.I. can come in 1st because he has similar picks to Joel.

 

   

I have attached the spreadsheet with the full standings, but you can also see more frequent updates using this link.  The full standings will show who is leading in each of the other categories that have payouts at the end of the year, plus the expanded standings sections will show you how your specific teams are doing.

Current Standings

Remember, half of the pool money pays out for winning specific categories, so even if you are not in 1st/2nd overall, you will still be paid out for winning the 4 categories below by season end.

Not much has changed here.  Curt is still winning the Non Conference Bonus, while Joel won the conference points category, and B.I. is in sole possession on Shut Outs + 50 Pts Total.  B.I. can only lose this category to me if Florida State and/or NDSU and/or Oklahoma State put up 50+ points or Shutouts.

Late in Bowl Season, Tim still has the lead in Bowl Win points, but Amanda is right behind him!  The point of these bonus points were so people like Tim and Amanda, who have been terrible all year, can still have a shot all the way to the end to turn a profit.

Everyone (even Jack) is still eligible to win some money during Bowl Season.  The person with the most Bowl Win Points will win 25% of the Bonus Prize pool ($300/4 = $75), so you can almost double your entry fee!

Non Conference Wins and Shut Outs + 50 Points Totals still accumulate during Bowl Season, so those close still have a chance to win those.  Conference Win Point Totals ended with Conference Championship games, so Joel already won $75.

 

   

Good luck going into the final 4 Bowl games, I will only be sending out one last update after the National Championship game on Monday, 1/6!

College Football - Christmas Bowl Update!

Below are the current standings as we are a few games into Bowl Season and it is still a battle between Joel, B.I., Curt, and Young.  Myself, Doug, Jen, and now Tim have an outside shot of winning, while everyone else is eliminated.

All updates have been made  - Conference Champions, Conference Game Champions, and Points for Teams Selected to Bowl Games.  Also, updates continue for the division I-AA FCS Playoffs as those with NDSU, Towson, and Eastern Washington have continued to accumulate points in addition to Bowl game points.

Columns have been added that show each persons Total Possible Bowl Points, Actual Bowl Points, and Max Points Remaining.  Joel, Curt, and Young have the highest percentage chance to win, with B.I., Rick, Tim, Doug, and Jen behind them.  Everyone else with a red light is eliminated.

College Football - It's Bowl Season!

Below are the standings as we head into Bowl Season and it is a battle between Joel, B.I., Curt, and Young.  Myself, Doug, and Jen have an outside shot of winning, while everyone else is eliminated.

All updates have been made  - Conference Champions, Conference Game Champions, and Points for Teams Selected to Bowl Games.

Non Conference Wins and Shut Outs + 50 Points Totals still accumulate during Bowl Season, so those close still have a chance to win those.  Conference Win Point Totals ended with Conference Championship games, so Joel already won $75.  Young missed out on a split pot by 1 win!  :(

 

   

Good luck going into the Bowl games, I will send frequent updates!  B.I. and Amanda can still earn another win this Saturday in the Army/Navy game, they both have Navy, and that is factored in to the Max Possible Points.

College Football - Week 14 Complete

Below are the standings through week 14 and we still have a 5 way race to the finish.  B.I. is back in 1st place and Joel fell into second, followed by Young, Curt, and Myself.  Everyone from Doug and below are really out of reach from finishing 1st or 2nd overall, but can still will some of the bonus categories.

This was essentially the final week of regular season college football games, with this next week being the conference championship games.  As you look through the standings you will see most of the points for teams winning the regular season conference have been updated.  The next few weeks is when having good teams will rack up a ton of points.

Prior to the Bowl Games beginning, I will add everyone's total possible Bowl points along with Actual Total Bowl Points, and Max Points Possible due to the Bowl Games.  Remember, in addition to those Bowl points you will still accumulate points for wins, shut outs, and scoring 50+ points, but knowing the Total Possible Bowl Points will give everyone a sense of what is available to be earned.

College Football - Week 13 Complete

Below are the standings through week 13 and we have a 5 way race to the finish, possibly 7.  Joel is still holding on to 1st place and B.I. jumped into second, while Curt, Young, and Myself are essentially tied for 3rd.

Over the next few weeks I will be adding in points for conference champions in addition to the normal scoring, then the following week we will have conference championship game points in addition to normal scoring.  We should see a lot of points racked up over the next 2 weeks.

Prior to the Bowl Games beginning, I will add everyone's total possible Bowl points along with Max Points Possible due to the Bowl Games.  Remember, in addition to those Bowl points you will still accumulate points for wins, shut outs, and scoring 50+ points, but knowing the Total Possible Bowl Points will give everyone a sense of what is available to be earned.

Good luck going into week 14, only a few weeks of college football games remain, and then bowl games start in about 3 weeks.

College Football - Week 12 Complete

Below are the standings through week 12 and we have a few changes at the top.  Joel jumped up 2 spots and took over 1st place, while B.I. dropped to 3rd.  Jen and Christina swapped spots, but that was the only other change this week.

Remember that we will get a ton of points for conference champions and bowl games, so except for maybe a few down at the bottom in red/orange, no one is out of contention.
