P-F25 Announcement: NCAA Bowl Challenge Is Now Boarding

By -

[PA Chime]

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the second leg of our NCAA Postseason gauntlet,

the P-F25 NCAA Bowl Challenge: A confidence-style game with 35 bowls, but zero playoff games.

As a reminder of the rules just changed this year, the CFP Contest + Bowl Contest scores will be weighted 50/50 to determine the overall NCAA Postseason Champion. That means you'll want to do reasonably well at both.

TL;DR NCAA Bowl Challenge Begins

  • Pick all 35 bowl winners straight up (CFP games are not on this card).
  • Spreadsheet card → select your team name first.
  • Assign confidence values 1–35 (use each number once).
  • No bonus points used in this contest.
  • CFP + Bowl scores are weighted 50/50 for the overall Postseason Champ.
  • Deadline: Friday 12/13 at 7:00 PM CT — email your completed card to me.

Bowl Challenge Rules (Flight Manual Edition)

This is a Confidence Contest.

  • Pick the winner of all 35 bowl games.

  • Assign each a confidence value from 1 to 35 (use each number once).

  • Your most confident pick = 35.

  • Least confident = 1.

No playoff games included.

Those belong to the CFP contest. That's a different thread.

No bonus points in the bowl contest.

We’re saving all bonus energy for a final championship pick later.

STEP ONE(S): Open the spreadsheet and select your team name.

Let the spreadsheet get to know you. It won't bite.

About the Excel spreadsheet.

If Excel causes you emotional distress, technological turmoil, or you’ve been living with Google Sheets, tell me ASAP. We will summit this mountain together.

Let me know immediately.

Every once in a blue moon, someone spots an error. If you find one, report it with the urgency of a missed extra point.

DEADLINE

Saturday, December 13 — 7:00 PM Central
Your card must be complete and emailed to me by then. Miss the deadline? You'll lose points in reverse numerical order.

Buckle up, pick boldly, and may your 35-pointer not be the one that loses by 28.

Whooooshhh!
