Southwest Classic Bowl Pick'em Challenge!
Sign up today for your spot on the Razorbackers team to take on FanSided’s A&M page, Gig Em Gazette in the first ever Southwest Classic Bowl Pick’em Challenge!
Arkansas and Texas A&M have been rivals for generations both on and off the field. The Razorbacks lead the all-time record but the Aggies have beaten them for the past 5 games. We will be taking the rivalry off the gridiron and competing in the first ever Southwest Classic Bowl Pick’em Challenge.
Head over to ESPN.com and join the RazorbackersFS Group. The group password is RazorbackersFS16. Invite as many people as you’d like to join up and represent the Razorbacks. We will be posting scores from each group and leaders after every day of bowl games.
How To Pick
So for those of you who haven’t ever done a pick’em, here is the basic premise. Go through all the games and check the box of the team you are picking to win the game. You may notice a green bar next to the teams. This indicates how other people doing the pick’em are picking.
This one is called a confidence type pick’em. How this works is you will see the “Move” button on the right-hand side of each game. Click this and then scroll to where you want the game to go based on how confident you are with your pick.
Whatever number you put your pick at is a number of points you will score if you win. So your least confident pick will go to 1 and your most confident at 42. Once you have moved everything around where you want, put in a score for the tie-breaker at the bottom and hit submit. Each participant will only get one entry in order to keep it fair.
Who To Follow
If you’re an Aggie fan, you can find your team’s group here. Also, make sure to check out the Aggies for updates on leaderboards and scores at your one stop destination for everything A&M, Gig Em Gazette.
You can follow us on twitter @RazorbackersFS and check out what the Aggies are up to @GigEmGazette. Let’s remember that trash talk is highly encouraged but at the end of the day, we all hate the Longhorns equally, so don’t be too hard on one another.
The Southwest Classic Bowl Pick’em Challenge kicks off with the first day of bowl games on December 17. The first of which is at 11:00 a.m. C.T. with the kickoff of the AFR Celebration Bowl.
If for some reason you have any trouble getting in, contact me on twitter @ChrisJacksonWPS. Have a happy bowl season and lets beat the Aggies! Woo pig!
