Even without the outcome of the Championship Game, we can officially crown the top 3 winners as their positions cannot change since the current top 7 all have Alabama with MOV's very similar.

Congrats to Betallsports, the overall winner!

1st... Betallsports... $690
2nd.. easy_money.. $345
3rd.. cy1981.......... $115

If your point is you have a chance to cash, you don't. You're the only one who can tie cy1981 for 3rd but you are 40 points behind him and the tiebreaker would place you 4th.

Clemson can blow Bama away 40 + points! lol

makes no difference.

I don't see how it could change as well. But i will hold off Payouts until the Game is Over.

Just wondering what the consensus is... was this format with the MOV better than the old type "Rank The Bowls" or worse?

If the old type "Rank The Bowls" was ATS my personal vote would be that was better than this but not by a lot....barely in fact because I did like the SU offering of games....stunning I managed to lose as many as I did....odd bowl season...in my experience at least..usually do much much better SU.

I think the amount that everyone was OFF of MOV testifies to this Bowl Season being a "unique" one.

Overall though....if pressed I'd say this format was very very good, I'd be fine with it but I'd also be fine if others vote for the Old Type Rank The Bowls. I'm interested to know if the group prefers, as a whole, SU or ATS selecting.....in the end I'd have to let them decide cuz I'd be fine with either way but feels like I have a very slight preference for SU selections.

I do feel that incorporating MOV was very very good, should be retained as a tie breaker with whichever format is chosen by the group....my expectation though is that the majority would feel otherwise.

Very very interesting how the top guys also did best with MOV....thats what I meant by saying to BAS "True Championship Performance" but that applicable to the 2nd & 3rd place guys also cuz with at least the 2nd Place guy...it came down to that freaky as heck (and Historic) TCU Comeback / Oregon Ducks Implosion...

Teams leading by somewhere around that much or more at half was, like, 1146-0 SU until this game....or something like that...Bizarre that the first time out of 1147 times...decides this contest....

Great Contest IMO....the best College Bowl contest out there...IMO....concept wise.....because I think the SU format makes for a tighter most competitive contest possible.

This one was a lot easier to grade than the "Rank" type... after I got the spreadsheet set up, that is. The sheet tabs seem to work out well also. Thanks for your insight MD. I figured I'd hear from you first (and probably last).

I really do like the SU Format. If a Main consideration is to have as competitive a contest as possible SU IMO the way to go.

If a "truer handicapping contest" is preferred...ATS of course.

I think SU sets this contest apart though...from others. I personally would rank as competitive a contest as can be ABOVE as true a handicapping contest as can be.

Whichizz gonna sound really lame 'n weak to some guys. And I wouldn't necessarily disagree...Good Question though, hope we get some responses...
