Have you recovered yet from that terrible display of football last night? I feel like neither team should be celebrating and instead should have to do the walk of shame back to their buses to get back to their schools. If I hear one more reference to "boys" and "men" when talking about SEC football, then...wait...you have got to be kidding me.
Anyways, let's wrap up a bow on college football's version of a postseason and see how everyone did in our bowl pick 'em this year.
Bowl Pick'em Final Top 10

Winner!
Congratulations to WVUwinsagain12 for destroying the competition this year. They correctly guessed that West Virginia would beat Clemson. They also successfully got their top 11 confidence point picks correctly and only missed 6 games overall. Their 561 points were good enough to place 161st in all of ESPN with the winner having 599.
WVUwinsagain12 a Deuce Brand watch and Boise State earmuffs are on their way to Morgantown for you!
Loser!
Remember, here at OBNUG we don't just reward those who finish first, but those who finish last too. And we're not referring to "I forgot to lock in my picks" last, but actually trying to fill it out and getting last. That goes to the OBNUGintern and his (BW) entry. Congratulations, Intern, a copy of Heavyweights is on its way!
Your Turn
Did you watch significantly fewer bowl games this year than last? Am I the only one to be in a college football depression not because the season is over but just how crappy the season was overall? Has Nick Patti enrolled yet?

Good game, sir
I switched some of my picks once I noticed how screwed I was in an effort to let you catch up to me, but it was all for naught, as you conquered me with your all-consuming terribleness.

The Beef O'Brady Bowl Rocked the CFB Bowl World
The best game I never watched. Marshall 20 I (C-USA) and (FIU) 10 (Sunbelt)
The stands were packed, the crowd anxious, the players ready but who watched a 7-5 team play? Somebody was jerking my Jerky err Beef. (I mean pulling my leg) oh never mind nothing sounds right with Beef O’ Brady .
The only thing the BCS has to fear is fear itself and Blue is the color of fear.
The Idaho Potato Commission Would like to Send Beef O' Brady a
half baked potato as gesture of good will. Or do you want fries with that?

reference Kids?
worse than that is when an announcer refers players as youngsters, a 320# defensive lineman a youngster?
Fun times...
I put up a good fight… did a lot better than I did in the regular season pick’em, but not as good as I did in Mikrino’s Pick’em… but hey, you can’t win em all. Congrats to WVUwinsagain12, glad you stuck to just this pick’em group :-)

Wow, 67th place.
At least I won the regular season…I’ll never let anyone forget that!

I didn't really pay attention to any bowls this year.
And didn’t watch any BCS game in entirety. In fact, between the five of them, I don’t think I watched a half of football. Didn’t watch the Orange or Sugar Bowls at all. Tuned in to see Okie State get the win and Oregon too, and when I flipped to Bama/LSU and it was 9-0 I thought, yeah, I knew I was right.
