Let It Ride!!!

NoBowls.com is letting me help out with an FBS/FCS college football "let it ride" contest. There isn't much online in way of I-AA contests, so I'm excited about it.

Finally...a college football pick'em for FCS fans!

The folks at NoBowls.com – The FCS Bracketology Website – are hosting a FREE College Football “Let It Ride" Contest. Pick one team from each conference, FBS and FCS (including independents), for a total of 27 teams. Once you submit your picks, you “let it ride” and stick with these teams for the entire regular season and postseason. Your teams will accumulate points as explained below, ending with one player being crowned the Season Champion! If it reaches 100 entrants, there will be also great prizes at stake! Get your entry in by Sept 2 at 5:00 PM EST, then check on the standings at NoBowls.com!
