This is the second annual BGR Bowl Challenge. For those of you who don't know what the Bowl Challenge is.
You will be given the opportunity to guess the outcome of each college football bowl game.
For every regular bowl game, if you correctly guess the winner, you will be awarded 1 point.
For correctly guessed BCS bowl games, you will be awarded 3 points.
If you correctly guess the winner of the National Championship game, you will be awarded 5 points. The National Championship game will also be the tie-breaker game. For the tie-breaker, you must submit what you predict the final score will be. If a tie-breaker is necessary, the person who is closest to the final score will win.
Now, for the winner, you will be given a customer user title "'08-'09 BGR Bowl Champion." You will also be given a FREE 6 month Donating Member status here on BGR.
Because the bowl games are spaced out, we will have 2 separate times to vote. The first round will include these games:
