Agent_Bond34 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2008 Bored, I changed my pick from UCLA to Fresno State. I'm not sure if you'd even allow this or not, but if not, then I'll go and change it back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2008 I do prefer people don't change their picks primarily because I don't want to have to bother with re-checking picks and possibly giving any unfair advantages. But I'll allow it since you did edit your post prior to the deadline and your opponent had submitted their picks before you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Agent_Bond34 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2008 Thank you. Sorry for the late change though, I was thinking more and more about that matchup particularly and had a change of heart. Being outscored 90-10 in your last two games is pretty brutal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2008 Hey, Bored do you mind re-checking my PM, I didn't have it saved when I sent it. I'm not denying that I picked Alabama because I could have done it sloppily but I really didn't mean to, and I would have much preferred to take Georgia at home.

Bored 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2008 I copy & paste the PM'd picks so you did pick Alabama. I'm actually surprised how few people picked them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2008 I wish 909 and I had picked at least one different game. Tiebreaks are okay, but only when you do something to get there. I suppose that's what I get for picking all favorites, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose that's what I get for picking all favorites, though. I think a lot of people try to get "cute" with their picks, and while it may come through for them a couple of times, in the long run picking conservatively and smartly help you more. Of course if this was the case, it would make for one boring contest so I don't really mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 I usually make a few picks of underdogs, mostly because I usually spend more than 5 minutes on them and can pretty strong feelings about 1-2 matchups that will go the other way. Busy week at work means less time to ponder my domination. Let's go SEC shootout! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teke184 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 7 differences in my game this week and I've walked away with the first 3 so far (UNC over Miami, UCONN over Louisville, and Duke over Virginia). Combine that with Florida's troubles with Ole Miss (which helps LSU) and I'm having a good day. EDIT- Pardon me, *8* differences. With 3 down, that will help me assure at least a tiebreaker with 1 more correct pick and an outright win with 2 more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 There's nine of us, including your fearless leader, who are 0 for 5 so far this week. And looking at the 3:30/12:30 match-ups 0 for 8 isn't out of the question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2008 For sake of curiosity, what is the lowest number of correct picks to win and lowest period in the history of this contest? Has there ever been a winless week? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2008 I think someone did a 2 out of 14 last year and I seem to recall someone pick 3 out of 20 in a conference championship. Somebody go look through the old threads for me. Carnival right now has a serious chance at 1 out of 14 for this week as his only hope to pick up another point for games still being played appears to be Washington. Edit: Oh you asked to win as well...fuck I don't know. Probably five is my guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
