I've automatically won a game over everyone, since I'll be one of the only one that picks OSU (who will win).

Good question.

How about correct winner of LSU game first...After that, BCS bowl game record?

Thoughts?

Why not the ever popular guess the score of the national championship game? Or you can do it Buddy Songy style, "How many total yards will Trindon Holliday have and who will be the Tigers break out player?"

Tie breaker will be:

1. Correct pick of LSU game
2. Overall record of BCS games (4 bowls plus title game)
3. Correct pick of BCS Championship game
4. Correct pick of Fiesta Bowl
5. Correct pick of Rose Bowl
6. Correct pick of Sugar Bowl
7. Correct pick of Orange Bowl

We had four people tie last year, and each split the prize. I won't have a problem doing that this year. So, we can have a tiebreaker to reward one person more than the others, but I wouldn't want to withhold a prize from someone due to some tiebreaker system like this.

Chicken, I've been running a little office pool for a while. If you want to have a tie breaker that will actually break ties, you've got to go with something like a "predict the score of the game." You are just asking for there to be more ties with the mulitiered system described above. You're going to have a bunch of Longhorns screaming that they were screwed by an arbitrary system that makes no sense. I would advise you to change to one tie breaker that is likely to produce dissimilar predictions.

Chicken, if I pick G Tech to beat LSU in the "Peach" bowl, does that make me a bad person?
