2014 Regular season standings! #cfb #cfbplayoff #bowlmania

With the close of the 2014 regular season yesterday, as noted by the completion of the Army/Navy game, it is time to get geared up for bowl season.  I thought I would post a quick regular season standings post so we can all see where everyone stands for the year.  Bowl season can change everything, just like that professor you had that one semester who said the final exam counted for half of your grade.  With 38 bowl games coming up, that is like cramming 3 average weeks of picks for most of our pickers, so it can make or break a season for anyone bold enough to pick all 38 games and share them with their adoring public.  We will be posting GAMEDAY COLE’S BIG BOWL BOARD of any and all picks we find for anyone preparing your bowl pick’em entry and those of you who need to bag on Kirk Herbstreit some more (which judging by Twitter is a LOT of you).  Anyways, here’s the rankings.  More stuff will come out soon.
