We are happy to announce the fourth annual RotoBaller ESPN College Football Pick'em contest! I brought this over here when I joined RotoBaller, and it's a great way to match wits with fellow RotoBaller writers and readers!
ESPN College Pick'em highlights 10 games per week. All you have to do is pick the winner of each game! If only it were that easy, right? You must also assign a confidence point "wager" to your pick from 10 points to 1 point. Each week, I will have an article up on the site with my picks and analysis, so you already know what I'm picking.
Since the confidence points add a little twist, we here at RotoBaller will give out a little prize. This game runs from Week 1 to Championship Week. The top three entries with the most points will win free premium access to RotoBaller's Premium VIP football tools for a full year ($450 value)!

Make your picks on the 10 games every week.
Adjust the points for win with 10 being the most confident and 1 being the least.

ESPN College Football Pick'em Strategy
Slow and steady can win this race, but it doesn't always work out that way. If you like an underdog, chances are that most are going to pick the favorite. ESPN shows the percentage at which each team has been picked globally. You can go against that and try to gain some points by increasing your confidence.
I generally put the games that I expect to be won handily at the top to get the most points. For instance, I have Georgia in my top spot right now. 95% of the public is also on Georgia. The 10-point pick is mostly to keep up, not gain points on the opposition.
However, I have a feeling that Texas A&M is good enough to beat Notre Dame, yet they are only picked at 35%. Even putting a moderate confidence rating on this (I have them at 4 right now) can generate a nice point boost for you since 65% of entries won't gain any points if Texas A&M wins.
Tournament Rules and Prizes
The top three finishers of the RotoBaller ESPN College Football Pick'em Challenge will win a free RotoBaller Premium Pass for all sports ($450 value), which includes access to our college football premium tools.
