And, isn't this the same format we have used in the past for Pick 'Ems? Yes, and it was a terrible format then as well. By the middle of the season, were were down to a handful still participating. Should be Spread OR Confidence, Not Both IMO. We were down participants because you kicked ass early and decimated the hope of many in the field. I blame you, GT!

I made it both confidence and point spread because that is what I thought the majority wanted. Personally I don't like the double format either. I will do two pickem's next year and see if that works. I believe I did that one time in past years.

I picked too early this week. Most of the games were "Off" on the spread and that made me greedy. I chose maximum confidence in most of those games.

I’m in and even made a pick on tonight’s game! Is the confidence points that the lower the number, the more confident you are?

The more points you score, the better you are. Thus, if you are truly confident, and say it is: Tennessee @ Florida, you would put up 25 points(If truly confident of the ass beating your Vols are about to give, or 1, and being a poor representation of a ravenous Vols fan.

They have sports books in them and all the big gaming companies have apps for your phone. You do have to be in Colorado when placing any bets through the app though. I’m sure there is a way around it if you want to bad enough, VPN and such.

It really sucks and i would like to know how many people lost $$$ or won $$$ on the closing seconds of the TTU game?
the line was Oregon -6 and it was 31-30 under a min.... TTU threw a pick and the oregon player returned it instead of just kneeling to end the game. 38-30 gave Oregon the cover.
and holy crap.... the +/- was 68.5 and it ended 68!
