THIS CONTEST IS OVER! CONGRATS TO ALL OF THE WINNERS & GRAND PRIZE WINNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED SOON!

Choose your winners below of each of the following college football bowl games with predicted final scores for each bowl game and you could win one of several prizes including gift cards, movie tickets, autographed sports memorabilia, and more.

There will be a winner for each bowl game listed and a Grand Prize winner for all bowl games together.

Each correct picked winning team of each bowl game receives 10 points. The following is the points system for each score: 1-5 score difference = 10 points, 6-10 score difference = 5 points, and 11-15 points difference = 2 points. The National Championship correct teams chosen will receive 25 points each and then the same scoring as above for points difference.

If in the course there is a tie: the Grand Prize winner will be decided by how many correct bowl game winners were selected out of the total amount, correct pick percentage as well as closest in score on the National Championship.
