Do you know how to pick the winners of college football games?
Do you like free tacos and beer?
If you answered yes to both of those questions, then you’ll want to enter Ankeny Fanatic’s College Football Bowl Contest sponsored by Yankee Clipper. The winner of the contest will receive a $50 gift card to Yankee Clipper–and that’ll buy you a lot of tacos and beer.
Here’s how the contest works: This is a confidence pool; pick the winners of the 20 bowl games listed below and rate the confidence of your picks from most confident (20) to least confident (1), using every number from 1 to 20. If you pick all 20 games correctly, you would finish with a perfect score of 210 points.
Email your picks to ankenyfanatic@gmail.com. Be sure to include your name, address and phone number. Also, don’t forget to include your tiebreaker: the total number of combined points in the Alamo and Outback Bowls.
