    I have set up another contest for those skyboxer's who might be interested. This is a private, locked group named Skyboxers 4229907, straight picks, one entry with password DB1958.

    Most of you should receive an invitation from last years contest. Make sure you are looking at 2020 season and not 2019.

    Thanks Don, I do wonder how many of these minor bowls will actually happen.

    What am I missing? I get to the group but there's no "join group" option that I can see.

    Sorry that was the wrong link. Capital One bowl mania should take you to the proper page.

    Still not finding the button to ask to join, I can see who is currently in the group but not how to join.

    Create an entry first, then go to group menu and join. Let me know if that does not work. Stu had the same problem.

    I seriously doubt this contest will get off the ground due to COVID-19? Too many teams will opt out of the bowl games due to the virus.

    Only a couple days left prior to Picks being available. I am sure most of you have been notified via email from ESPN Fantasy Sports?o_O

    I have not seen anything in print kp. I did mention I'm an earlier post, I would not be surprised if ESPN did cancel the contest.

    I'm running a family group for ESPN Bowl Mania and as of a minute ago it hadn't been cancelled. I also would not be surprised if it was. These days nothing would surprise me.

    Don could you send me an invitation? I am in joining hell, I've tried and tried and I can't get to any screen that allows me to enter a password and join the Skyboxers 4229907. I can see it but it always comes up as locked.
