When circumstances change, contests change.

Last week’s Poinsettia Bowl Pick’em contest was a great success with 50 tickets overall distributed to 619 Sports readers & listeners.  We were all set to roll the contest forward…then we found out that we have just FOUR tickets to give away to the SOLD OUT Pacific Life Holiday Bowl on December 30th.

Hey, that’s still two pairs of tickets to see the AP College Football Player of the Year Ndamukong Suh and the 22nd ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers against the 20th ranked Arizona Wildcats at Qualcomm Stadium on Wednesday night!

Want to get in on the action?  You’re going to need to visit 619Sports.Net each of the next four days, and you’re going to need to show some prognosticating savvy picking college and pro football games!

Starting with two of today’s three college football bowl games, and continuing through Tuesday night, 619 Sports will present you with 10 different opportunities to pick games.  The two people who come up with the highest number of correct picks will be going to the Holiday Bowl!  In case of a tie I will randomly select the winners from the available pool of contestants with the same number of correct picks.

After the jump, take a look at the 10 games you’ll be picking! Continue Reading →

The team leading the conference at 6-0, Butler, was a team that narrowly defeated us 25-24 in Indianapolis. The difference between the teams leading our conference and the teams who are out of contention for the league championship is minimal, but it’s the small things that win football games.

It is said that the outcome of a football game is never determined by one play, but rather by a handful of pivotal plays. We have been routinely failing to seize opportunities when they present themselves, but instead allowing the other team to capitalize off of our inability to execute. Continue Reading →
