Hey everyone! Some of you joined my pick em during the regular season and now I am doing one for the bowl season. I have added some prizes, so please feel free to join, it is free.
SIGNUP - Third Annual In The Bleachers Bowl Bonanza | In The Bleachers College Football Blog (http://inthebleachers.net/bowl-games/signup-third-annual-in-the-bleachers-bowl-bonanza/)
For the third year in a row, In The Bleachers will be sponsoring a Bowl Bonanza where readers and bloggers can pick the winners of bowl games and win prizes from the In The Bleachers College Football Blog. For those wanting to join, we are going to use the <a href="http://funofficepools.com/">Fun Office Pools</a> software that we used for the Pick Em contest that ran through out the season.
This year's contest will be a bit different than the last two years. This year you have to pick a winner for each game and assign a confidence factor to each game and those are the points you will accumulate if you win that pick.
To sign up, go to the <a href="http://funofficepools.com/">Fun Office Pools' website</a>. If you haven't already registered there, take a second and make a username with a password that is unique to only you.
Next on the front page click on the Join Pool button under the College Bowl Pick 'Em logo. You should be taken to a page that looks like this...

Selection Name: (This is the name that your picks will be given in the pool (not necessarily the same as your username you used to sign up with), so something like My Great Picks, or Sure Winners, or simply Kev's Picks. You can have different selection names for each different pool you join.)
Prizes
Prizes will be handed out for the people who finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd as laid out below. Remember to do the tiebreaker because that will break all ties for bowl games.
