Title: 2017 College Pick'em
Post by: TheNorm on July 30, 2017, 10:50:08 AM
Gauging interest in a college pick'em for this year. Let me know if you're game-haven't decided between Yahoo and ESPN yet, all depends on customization. :)

Hmm, not really much customization for either:

ESPN has 10 games each week, but they pick the matchups. Picks can be made either straight-up, or with confidence points.
Yahoo you can choose Top 25 (which can be a lot of games depending on the week), or go by conference, but can't mix and match games. Also has straight-up, against the spread, and confidence points.

Leaning toward ESPN but want to hear from all of you as well.

And FYI, not limiting this to just here-so once I decide please feel free to invite friends (or enemies), because I plan on doing the same. :)

Actually...CBSSports may have just solved some issues for me. Pretty customizable and I can include both college and NFL games. Still a little early but if no one has objections I may give this a shot.

Alright everyone, here's the link to join the pick'em league: it'll be a mix of college and pro games each week. Invite your friends, or even your enemies. Prize TBD to the winner.

Still time to enter this if you haven't already (and unless your name is thai, you haven't). Deadline to pick is 5 minutes before each game. Jump in already!

The GT/UCF game is listed, but the game has been postponed. Not sure how they plan to update it, either. Not many top matchups this week in CFB, TBH.
