Pick the favorites 2022 bowl edition

Hat tip to Darrell! I’m not sure where you got all this but it comes in mighty handy.

For picking the favorites, you have a $100 bankroll and can pick up to five teams to cover their spread, in increments of 10 please. Same rules, if you win you score what you wagered but losing carries a 10% penalty. Good luck!

Let this be a lesson to anyone crazy enough to bet on bowl games lol. Out of 16 teams we used, only 5 covered the spread as listed above. We did have one big winner and in fact was the only one to finish in the black—congrats to Blueboss with a perfect +100 on Alabama!

Alabama covered
Marshall covered
San Diego St. lost
Arkansas won but didn’t cover
Texas lost
UCF lost
Michigan lost
Illinois wasn’t favored as listed above; null pick
USC lost
Notre Dame covered
Baylor lost
Southern Miss covered
Clemson lost
Georgia won but didn’t cover
Boise St. won but didn’t cover
Houston covered
Ole Miss lost

Blueboss +100
CF73 +30-77 = -47
Doc -110
Yeager +10-66 = -56
Mick +20-88 = -68
Darrell +30-77 = -47

After a bust on the season on both SUP, and PTF, nice to get a little redemption.

Roll Tide!!

Thanks, CF for managing the game.
