Card Chronicle Bowl Pick'em Update: 12-28-2010

Some CC Bowl Pick'em stats for people who take this as seriously as it should be taken:

Only 130 people picked all the bowls, meaning four entries don't count. You know who you are.

CHAMPS SPORTS BOWL: West Virginia - North Carolina State

Only 15 CCBP entrants correctly picked NC State to beat WVU, representing 12% of the 130 entries. For reference, 24% of all Yahoo! users picked the Wolfpack. Interesting.

INSIGHT BOWL: Missouri - Iowa

55 CCBP entrants correctly picked Iowa to beat Missouri, 42% of 130 entries. Only 33% of all Yahoo! users took Iowa.

IGNORANCE OR GENIUS?

There's about 20 of you at the bottom of the standings who either completely ignored the confidence points concept or were too lazy to alter them. This means several entrants have earned the exact minimum amount of points for their correct picks so far. It's very possible that one of you ranked in the 100s this week will end up vying for 1st place come January 10th. This is me judging you.

SHOW-OFFS

Disregarding confidence points, there are only two teams who have successfully picked 9 of the 11 played bowl games correctly, SCCards and Klizzler.
