Sign up to play! 14th year, "College Crazies!" Yahoo College Football Pick'em 2016

14th year! "College Crazies!" Dustin Whittier is Challenging YOU to College Football Pick 'em on Yahoo! Sports

It's that time of year again...  College Football Pick'em time! (skip to the highlighted area for directions to sign up)
  • Most of you know the drill.  This is a weekly fantasy college football competition.  It is FREE to play.  You only have to make your picks once a week, and it only takes 5 mins!  
  • This year, I will be sending my weekly recaps via this blog site.  So check back often (or subscribe) for the best of the weekend's football action, highlights of picks gone right, and shout-outs to the picks gone terribly wrong. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Follow the directions below to sign up.  The first set of picks are already published and lock next week on Friday, September 2nd at 7:00pm cst.  #AnchorDown
(Those that played last year may have already received an automated invite from Yahoo)
  • In order to join the group, just go to College Football Pick'em, and click the "Join Group" button. From there, enter the following information...
  • Group ID#: 4497
  • Password: dores

A couple of notes about the pick'em game if you want to know more:
  1. This group uses confidence based scoring, you make your picks by selecting the winner for that game AND how many confidence points you want on the game. Its like betting more money (points) on the games you're most confident will win.  If you're not sure how this works, please email me!
  2. Picks are locked 5 mins before the first game of the week.  IMPORTANT - the first game could be on Thurs or Fri (like the first week) - so be sure to check your picks early in the week (Tues or Wed).  The good thing is when the picks are locked, you can see everyone's picks for fun taunting during the weekend.
  3. We will drop each team's lowest week's score this year.
  4. When you sign up, there is a choice to “Allow the commissioner to edit your picks” – I would highly recommend selecting this option – inevitably you will forget to make your picks and call me 10 minutes prior to game time, without this enabled I can't help ya.

ENJOY!!!  Hope to see everyone signed up, the more teams the better - so as always, feel free to forward this to friends and family!  Email me if you have any questions.  14 years in a row strong and we continue to have great competition each year.  So bring your A-game.

PS - for those that were in the MONEY group last year (and those interested in a money group), I will be setting up a separate group to manage that league.  If you're interested, send me an email.
