    As with last year, it is set up with "Drag and Drop" confidence points which changes the date order of your picks. Again, as with last year, you can change this to the Classic method like what we did with the season contest.

    Excerpt from the site:

    There are two ways to adjust confidence values.
    • The default method is Drag and Drop. In this mode, you can change a game's confidence level by sliding that game's row to a new point value. The confidence points for all other games will adjust automatically.
    • If you would rather view games in date order, or if you do not have JavaScript enabled, you can edit your confidence values by switching to Classic mode. All confidence points are pre-selected in Classic mode, so choose a blank value from a game's drop down list to make those points available for another game.

    Present and accounted for.

    When I forwarded the notification to my sons (I'm sure they got Tom's also) I added what should be our group motto;

    May the Best Man (or Woman) Suck the Least!

    Coach....Did you figure it out yet?....it's the drag and drop option (points only) for each bowl game....not sure if there's another option (classic) you can change to.....

    BTW, you're gonna drop all 36 points on the Huskers right?

    Change to "Classic" view. On your pick selection page look for the BIG "0" showing your total accumulated points on the right side of the screen. Directly under that ZERO is "Set Edit Type" and it is set to "Drag and Drop". Change that selection to "Classic" and you are now picking the same as you were through the normal season.
