Congratulations to Tom Lehman (no, not THAT Tom Lehman) for winning this year's Baddest Bowl Pick 'Em Ever. Watching Tua and Saban get throttled on national television makes it that much more enjoyable to flip $600 in someone's general direction.
I would also like to congratulate Mr. Tim Bolek (yes, THAT Tim Bolek) for being forever etched in BBPEE lore as this year's Angie Guidi Lack of Achievement Award "winner". Tim managed just 15 correct picks and a truly impressive 291 confidence points amassed. For his ineptitude, Tim wins an official Cotton Bowl t-shirt. Tim had 40 confidence points on Missouri, who mounted a late comeback against formerly 40-year old Mike Gundy's OSU (no, not THAT OSU) Cowboys.
Payouts:
1st Place - Tom Lehman $600
2nd Place - Corey Ohalek $300
3rd Place - Lindsay Rice $150
4th Place - Dan Bialek $75
5th Place - Chad Welty $50
