Bowlapalooza : Shock and Awe





Acknowledging the general dissatisfaction with dribbling out the Bowls 3 games at a time as they happen we are 'going in a different direction this year', Brothers and Sisters.
There will be one big release of all the bowls. You can take a look, do a little research but then you have to make all your picks all at once before December 17.

The games will be in batches of 3 games each. 1 for the win, 5 for the sweep. It's a tight race now so we're going to keep it simple. The only anomaly is the last two games, the Sugar Bowl and the College Football Championship. Otherwise it's a level playing field.

  10. Amigos- no Fournette for LSU vs Louisville. Does the living document of BRFL rules allow pick alterations? If so, I'll switch to Louisv

  17. Chuck,
    You need to enter your National Champion pick in the group 14 picks.

  18. KBronie and BroBronie: Louisville has suspended their OC for their bowl game vs LSU because he accepted Wake Forest game plan from some maniac sportscaster before the L'ville v Wake game. Too bad you can't change your pick back. Personally, I'd rather have a Leonard Brittle-Bones-less LSU squad than an offensive powerhouse without their offensive coordinator.
    Love the bowl season. So much stupid bullshit going on. You can bet your ass they wouldn't have suspended him if it was a regular season game that counted for anything.

    1. An interesting new trend that will make picking the Bowls next to impossible. We may have to go back to the old system of dribbling them out three at a time.

    2. Why are you getting so soft, Limpdick? Bowl games are always a crap shoot. Most players sit it out, even if they are on the field - Florida v. Michigan last year as an example. It is just another layer of intrigue to add to the bowlapalooza. Quit thinking like a pussy.You're a disgrace.

      Delete
    3. Layer of intrigue?
      Really?
      The only thing I find of intrigue is why you were standing in front of the mirror at the CSC doing the "tuck and hide" like Buffalo Bill from The Silence of the Lambs.

      Delete
    4. How often do you Bronies soap up together at the CSC?
      Also, I noticed this morning that I was pretty awesome.

    5. I noticed you noticing me, K-Manbun. The way you were licking your lips is a definite trip to chap city. J-Jizz prefers me tucked; it's kinda our thing.
