Bowl Game Pick ’em Results

If you haven’t read my previous post on picking bowl game winners with elote, this may not make a whole lot of sense, but basically I wrote a rating system, trained it on the college football season thus far, and used it to predict winners for every bowl game. In this post, I’m tracking how it did.

I’ll update this as the games happen, currently we’re at 6/15 wins, not great.

All matchups are in the format: “team I picked to win – team I picked to lose”

Matchup Win / Loss
West Virginia – Utah
N Illinois – Duke
UCLA – Kansas State
Florida State – Southern Miss
BC – Iowa
Purdue – Arizona
Missou – Texas
Navy – Virginia
