You can get even more picks and more in depth analysis in my free newsletter and now you also get the opportunity to enter the free weekly picking contest which has been a lot of fun for those who have chose to enter.

I send out at least two additional picks, one from Jordan and one from myself, in my free newsletter which goes out every Friday night. They aren’t games that I cover anywhere else on the blog and you’ll see more in depth coverage. As is everything on this site it’s a work in progress so the format changes from week to week but it always has a note from me and at least 2 more free picks and analysis. This past weekend Jordan continued his dominance against the spread in the PAC-10 giving out the Oregon and Oregon State double as covering winners,

As a way of thanking all of my readers and visitors I host a free game picking contest. The contest starts fresh each week so it’s never too late to enter. For those of you who just want the newsletter or just wanted your free copy of my ebook/report: Betting On College Football Made Simple, there’s no obligation to enter, you’ll still get your additional free picks every week as you always have.

This week’s winner was Mark R who went a whopping 12-3 against the spread and racked up a record 99 confidence points. Mark joins us from Delaware and he is a regular part of out site and has been active in the new chat room. Mark says that he just took all of the best info he could assemble from all of the information he got right here and these were just the games he felt strongest about. We congratulate Mark and we’ll see if he will become our first repeat winner.

I’ll be sending out the games, point spreads, and rules by Tuesday night but if you’ve signed up for the newsletter later than that you can still enter right up until the cut off time. I’ll give you just a quick run down of how it is going to work. I send everything out using the same list I use for the newsletter and basically it’s going to have about 25 games or so listed. From those 25 games you’ll have to pick 15 of them and rank your predicted winner against the spread with a confidence level from 1-15. The other 5 games or so you don’t want to use will be left out. It’s pretty simple, whomever has the highest point total wins. I doubt it will come to this but I have a tie-breaker based on 1 game picking the winner against the spread and the point total of the winning team. Like I said I mail out the rules with the games and odds but this seems pretty fair to me and should create enough separation that we’ll probably never need the tie-breaker (now that I wrote that we’ll need it every week).
In answer to everyone’s question, yes we are going to have a special bowl picking contest and yes it’s still going to be all free and yes there will be prizes. While nothing is final yet, we are hoping for multiple prize levels as well. No matter what we know it will be a lot of fun and it’s really all part of the growth here.Champs Sports (Footlocker.com, Inc.)
