Bored Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 As I mentioned last week I'm going out of town for Thanksgiving. After Tuesday night I probably won't have internet access until Saturday night. So because of that Hawk 34 will help run the contest while I'm gone. So here's how things will work this week: -All picks for this week must sent by private message to Hawk 34. Do not post your picks in the thread and do not send your picks to me. -Once both players from a match-up have sent their picks to Hawk he will post them in the thread. -There will be a total of 20 games to pick from over the next two weeks. For this first week there will be 13 games and next Sunday I will post the final 7 games to make picks for plus the tiebreaker questions. I'm skipping the Thanksgiving game but there are three Friday games to pick for. I would strongly suggest everyone try to get their picks in by Wednesday night so they don't forget over the holiday. Week 13 Deadline -Friday, November 24th, Noon EST/9:00 AM PST Week 13 Match-ups Western Atlantic Conference Championship #1 Miami (Spaceman Spiff, 8-4) vs. #2 Georgia Tech (iggymcfly, 9-3) - GAME OF THE WEEK Southeastern Seven Championship #5 South Carolina (Cuban Linx, 9-3) vs. #10 Kentucky (Danville Wrestling, 7-5) Pac-8 Championship #8 Oregon (nogoodnick, 8-4) vs. USC (Cartman, 7-5) Big MAC Championship #9 Minnesota (Vern Gagne, 7-5) vs. Kent State (JHawk, 6-6) Big 8 Championship Texas (UTBroward, 6-6) vs. Oklahoma (Vampiro69, 6-6) Week 13 Games to Make Picks For (first 13) FRIDAY Texas A&M at Texas LSU at Arkansas Oregon at Oregon State SATURDAY South Carolina at Clemson Mississippi State at Mississippi Oklahoma at Oklahoma State SMU at Rice Georgia Tech at Georgia Arizona State at Arizona East Carolina at N.C.

iggymcfly Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 I'm pretty sure you got it since it's not mentioned in the differing picks, but you don't have me listed with a winner for Rice/SMU, and I just wanted to note that I did indeed take Rice in that contest.
Cartman Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 USC with a 4 game advantage in the Pac 8 title game!
Cuban Linx Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 A 2 game advantage with 7 games to go, that certainly works for me.
Bored Posted November 26, 2006 Author Report Posted November 26, 2006 Thanks again to Hawk 34 for filling in for me while I was gone. Of course now this week everyone will send their picks by private message directly to me. For those who are not playing in the conference championship games remember to check next weekend for the bowl match-ups and I now have a fairly good idea of what they will be.

Vern Gagne Posted November 27, 2006 Report Posted November 27, 2006 Shouldn't I be three games better?
Bored Posted November 27, 2006 Author Report Posted November 27, 2006 Nope, you had a 3-1 edge in the differing games.

Bored Posted December 1, 2006 Author Report Posted December 1, 2006 nogoodnick didn't submit picks on time and checking his profile he hasn't be on the board in a week. If he does show up before Saturday's kick off I'll still let him submit partial picks. Not a big deal here as Cartman had that match-up locked up barring a collapse. Hopefully he'll show up for the bowls. Also I'll wait to post Cartman's picks until nogoodnick shows up or after Saturday's games start.
iggymcfly Posted December 1, 2006 Report Posted December 1, 2006 Well, with the Central Michigan win, I'm officially the WAC Champion. I'd assume that unless I get every pick the rest of the way wrong now, I'll be playing either Miami or Syracuse in the BCS title game.
Bored Posted December 2, 2006 Author Report Posted December 2, 2006 I just logged on, nogoodnick did get his picks to me earlier today.

Guest Princess Leena Posted December 2, 2006 Report Posted December 2, 2006 What a mess this game is.
Cartman Posted December 2, 2006 Report Posted December 2, 2006 ...and I am the Pac 8 champ! Unranked and all All luck too.
Cuban Linx Posted December 2, 2006 Report Posted December 2, 2006 With Houston's win i'm officially the SE7 Champ, up by 2 with GT/Wake the only differing game left.
Broward83 Posted December 2, 2006 Report Posted December 2, 2006 Welp, with a disappointing Georgia Tech loss... it looks like I'm going to need to sweep the three other games we differ on and pray for a high scoring SEC Title game with Arkansas coming out on top with that one... oh, and that Colt doesn't decimate Oregon State too badly with that gun of his...
CanadianChris Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 Well, with the Central Michigan win, I'm officially the WAC Champion. I'd assume that unless I get every pick the rest of the way wrong now, I'll be playing either Miami or Syracuse in the BCS title game. I can't see how it would be me. Spiff was just too far in front.
Vern Gagne Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 You're the SEC of the pick'em contest.
CanadianChris Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 You're the SEC of the pick'em contest. Agreed.
Bored Posted December 3, 2006 Author Report Posted December 3, 2006 All I'll say right now is that I don't know who's playing in the Bored Bowl as of yet even though all the title games are decided.
CanadianChris Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 I'm actually wondering if iggy is suffering from premature speculation. He and Spiff both got a lot of picks wrong, especially assuming Rutgers hangs on -- I'm hoping that he drops enough in the other two categories to drop below me. But, given my history in this contest, I'm not exactly holding my breath.

But, given my history in this contest, I'm not exactly holding my breath. Not really. I went 13-6 thus far. From Bored's comment though, either the WVU game decided it or an Oregon State win puts you in the title game.
Vampiro69 Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 According to my drunken calculations, I think I have wrapped up the weak Big 8 conference.
Bored Posted December 3, 2006 Author Report Posted December 3, 2006 Congratulaions to UTBroward for the worst performance in the history of the contest with a 3 out of 20 showing. Ouch.

Pepsi Blue Bored Bowl #1 Miami - Spaceman Spiff 5.35 vs. . . . . . . . . . . . . . #2 Georgia Tech - iggymcfly 5.85 3. Syracuse - CanadianChris 6.1 As expected Spiff's lead going into the final week was too much to overcome although he came closer to losing the #1 spot than I expected. What I was hinting at earlier was iggy needed to get two out of the last three games right or otherwise he would have dropped to #3 even with the win. So yes like in real life Jesus will weep as we get a rematch (or a trimatch) in the championship game. Rest of the bowl match-ups will be up shortly.
iggymcfly Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 Whoo hoo! Whoo hoo! Whoo hoo! I am very, very pleased to accept my invitation to the Pepsi Blue Bored Bowl on behalf of Georgia Tech. As far as Miami goes, I'm sure they're a great team and all, but after spanking them two games in a row... let's just say I'm not too worried. After how ugly the real game was today, I'm happy that at least one Jackets team will be bringing a championship to Atlanta.
Bored Posted December 3, 2006 Author Report Posted December 3, 2006 Bowl Match-ups Pepsi Blue Bored Bowl: #1 Miami (Spaceman Spiff) vs. #2 Georgia Tech (iggymcfly) Traditional Bowl presented by the Yellow Submarine: #8 Minnesota (Vern Gagne) vs. USC (Cartman) TheSWF.com Dust Bowl: #5 South Carolina (Cuban Linx) vs. Oklahoma (Vampiro69) Williams Games SinisTar Bowl: #7 Stanford (Bored) vs. Kentucky (Danville Wrestling) Out Magazine Bowl: #3 Syracuse (CanadianChris) vs. #4 Virginia (Edwin MacPhisto) KFC PETA Bowl: #6 Hawaii (Will Scarlet) vs. #9 Oregon (nogoodnick) Meow Mix Pussy Bowl: Tennessee (Sex Machine Gun) vs. San Jose State (kkktookmybabyaway) Ex-Lax Toilet Bowl: #10 UCLA (phoenixrising) vs. Florida (Urban Warfare) FireJoeMorgan.com Bowl: Arizona State (Spicy McHaggis) vs. LSU (teke184) Short explanation and I'll answer questions tommorrow if there are any. Both UTBroward and JHawk were out of consideration as they needed to win their title games to get to a bowl. So the Big MAC had just one bowl eligible team and the Big 8 had just two while the Pac-8 ended up with seven. Because of that Lando Griffin and The Last Samurai with 6-6 records ended being the snubs as I couldn't place them in a bowl without having a match-up of two teams from the same conference.
