Sorry I didn't get my picks in earlier, but there was a hurricane and all, so my power was kinda fucked, along with 3 million other South Floridians.

 

Georgia Tech

Minnesota

Nebraska

Cincinnati

Kansas

East Carolina

BYU

Georgia

Northwestern

Mississippi State

Marshall

 

Tiebreak #2: How many yards rushing will Northwestern's Tyrell Sutton have against Michigan? 98

Posted

Wow, looks like my #1 ranking might be short-lived. After getting the tiebreak and the New Mexico/Colorado State game wrong, I now need to get all three games right tomorrow to win.

 

Even worse, I really don't even think Nebraska will beat Oklahoma, as I regretted the pick almost as soon as I made it. I think I really might have choked away the top spot this week.

I think I should be exempt from the thursday and friday night games due to the hurricane postponing my picks.

 

I mean, in this time of great need, who else can we count on but the great American people to help one of our own, tragically affected by the aftermath of Hurricane Wilma?

Oops, I meant exempt. That's what I get for posting drunk.

There was a virtual tie for the #10 spot this week (same record, same correct pick %, same "strength of schedule") but Marvin gets the nod over Cuban due to being higher ranked last week. Both were very fortunate to win this week.

 

Currently only four points seperating the top 9 in correct pick %. 19 out of the 34 teams are 5-4 or 4-5. This thing is just wide open going into the final four weeks of the regular season.

 

Also there was a tie for the #1 spot overall but because one has a better record than the other, we have a new #1 for the 3rd straight week...

DOWN GOES IGGY!! DOWN GOES IGGY!! Kidding, had to put something since I knocked off the #1 team...

 

That's all right. I deserve it. I kind of went off last week.

 

Anyway, just glad to see I survived my bad week as a narrow #2. I'm not going to get cocky and guarantee a win next week, but I will guarantee that I won't make a pick like Nebraska over Oklahoma again. Let's just say that if I were AlwaysPissedOff, I wouldn't get too comfortable.

LOL. I was trying to do the humble thing, but then after two sentences of it, I couldn't help myself, and I had to throw something in there.

 

I guess deep down I'm just a cocky prick.
