Something brand new. I thought it might be fun to mix things up a bit.

Here's how the game goes. I'll choose a handful of games and you pick the winner. You won't have to worry about the spread - only confidence points. The most confident choice of yours will have the highest point total. For instance, if I choose 6 games for us to predict, your highest point total will be 6 and you should use 6 on the game that you are most sure about.

Also, as a tie breaker, I'll use a random question like, "In the Wisconsin vs Alabama game, how many rushing TDs will the teams combine for?" If it is still tied, who cares? It's just a game and ties happen, but I doubt it will be too often here.

Please copy and paste the games into the reply box. I would like this to look as clean as possible so I don't have to spend an hour of my time trying to figure out the results. Here ya go...

I'm surprised so many of you think TCU at Minnesota is a lock. Minnesota wasn't that bad last year, and they have a lot more to prove. they went 6-1 at home last year, with a 7 pt loss to Ohio St.

This was my thinking as well. Minnesota isn't a fun place to play and I'm guessing Minnesota fans will pack that place. A top 5 team going into their house? Yeah, they'll be ready for the game. If TCU doesn't come with their best game, Minnesota might embarrass them. Their defense is built to shut down teams like TCU as well and don't forget the Jerry Kill factor. That guy really knows how to inspire his team. I wouldn't say it's a lock, but their chance of coming out with a W is a lot higher than experts are giving them.

TCU destroyed Minnesota last year. It was a 30-0 blowout before Minnesota scored a completely meaningless TD. It might be closer this year, but TCU is a much better team with arguably the best QB in the country.
