RULES: COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Part1: Conference Picks
Please select a champion from each of 6 conferences (ACC, Big10(twelve teams), Big12(10 teams), BigEast, Pac12, SEC). Please also select 4 at large selections, which may be from any conferences, but which may not duplicate any of your 6 prior picks. Your ten teams will earn points as follows:
...5 pts for each win
..25 pts for a conference title
..10 pts for a bowl berth
..10 additional pts for a BCS bowl berth
..20 pts for a bowl win
..25 pts for a BCS title

At large teams: We made available the top 45 teams in the nation plus the top 3 from each conference if they were ranked lower than 45th. If you wish to select an at-large team which we didn't load, just email sportsdecathlon@yahoo.com and we'll get it loaded.

Your conference champ picks lock at 12n Pacific Thu 8/30 at 3p Pacific, before the first games of the season start.

Part2: Bowl Winners
2a: BCS winners. Pick the winner of each BCS game (5 games). We will be picking against the spread. All spreads will be x.5 pts so there will be no pushes. Correct picks earn 20 pts

2b: Pick 10 Bowl winners. You can pick any teams from any bowls, including playing both sides of a given bowl (thus guaranteeing a win and a loss) or re-picking your BCS picks (to double up or hedge). We will be picking against the spread. All spreads will be x.5 pts so there will be no pushes. Correct picks earn 15 pts

Picks will lock just before the first game (12/15 10am Pacific).
