I hope Colts win....by 3

ADVANTAGE CHALLENGE Results
We had 3 perfect scores: csudak, da_goat, and tangplay.
It came down to tiebreakers and winner is tangplay!

About time for me to win one of these things.

With Oregon (-3) beating Michigan St 7-6 polarsi and goat only lose 1 point on disadvantage and redraider makes good on his advantage winning an extra 2 points.

Challenge 4 updated through 12/31:

csudak leads with 29 points but has a disadvantage to do yet
pdxblazerfan is 2nd with 28 points
3rd place is currently tangplay with 27 points
JamesPAn 26 pts
redraider 25 pts
Only 3 contestants have a chance at bonus points for picking 15 bowls correctly- pdxblazerfan, redraider68, and tangplay

Towards the bottom:
stalagna has 19 points
polarsi and darny10 have 20 points each
waregl72 had 18 but then lost 5 in disadvantage so he only has 13. However he could sneak in and overtake stalagna if both his ATS picks are correct and no upsets occur.
So you're saying there's a chance!

The Host chose the most bowl games correctly with 13 of 16 to this point.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

It all comes down to the Sugar Bowl tonight. How is the granddaddy of them all (Rose Bowl) not in the lineup? Who's runnin this sh!t show? Hahaha!!!

My picks have sucked today and I deserve to go home if Georgia wins. A good first half for Texas. I really thought Georgia might come out flat and Texas would be fired up to play. Keep it up Longhorns!

So if Georgia wins and covers, I win the challenge? Not looking good.

Final standings for Chaz's Bowl Challenge-

1st- csudak with 33 points, BUT he had a disadvantage and it cost him 5 points so he finishes with 28 pts AND not 1st but t4th
tie 2nd with 29- tangplay and redraider68
Winner- pdxblazerfan with 30 points
stalagna was the only one to pick Texas SU and it propels him over waregl72 who finished last with 18 points and has been eliminated.

How does the push work for NDS?

How does the push work for NDS?

In real betting it's a push but I'm going to treat a tie as follows: I was giving 2 more points for ATS over SU bet so with a tie I'm giving half that so 1 additional point which makes 4 points.
