clicking on the "Group Picks" under the "Group" tab will show everyone's picks for the
games that have been played AND the "confidence points the assigned the picks.

So I picked 2 out 4 correct, and you picked 3 out of 4,
yet I'm beating you in points 61-7.

However, four of my "Big-point" picks are now blown -from this point
on, if I pick every correct, I will max out at 532.

All your picks were "low-confidence" - if you pick all the rest of
the games correct, you'll max out at 592.

I got smashed by the Colorado State win - I had expected the Arizona/BYU to
be a toss-up - rolled the dice and LOST.

So yeah, Serkanner, you did well.
You get cookie :

OH yeah - SPICELON !!

I think you forgot to hit "Submit" on your picks, Dude !

you can still dix it, I'm assuming you'd only be out 4 points -
is that right, Duke ?

excuse me : Mr. Commissioner ?

He'd be out 10 points (4+3+2+1). But something like 600 points are available, so there's still time to recover.

Spicelon, I think SR is right: your pick set is just a big blank. You need to hit that big yellow "submit" button.

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 27 Dec 2008 20:26

wooo, BIG points on Cal, eh Duke ?

If Cal wins, you'll move into first place by 8 points .....

{DuneNerd picked up 24 points off of Florida State - he's closin' in ...}

Serkanner · Post by **Serkanner** » 27 Dec 2008 20:49

In the end, when I make that final dash to the finish line, they will all say: "Where did that came from?" ... just wait and see.

I picked 3 for 3 today - too bad I didn't have more points on those games ...

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 31 Dec 2008 00:29

quite a little lead you got going there, Duke.

DuneNerd caught me today, we're tied.

I'm hoping for a late come back, but the Oregon game tonight wasn't pretty. God damn I hate BYU. I messed up on the S. Florida game too. I must have been drunk. Yeah, that's it.

TheDukester · Post by **TheDukester** » 31 Dec 2008 00:56

I've gotten a couple of breaks, to be sure. My 34-point pick (Missouri) really should have lost; Northwestern gave up 11 points due to poor special teams.

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 02 Jan 2009 20:33

I am SICK TO MY STOMACH over that Texas Tech debacle.

It's one thing to get caught up in an upset - make no mistake,
Ole Miss has been at the bottom of the second tier SEC since
before the War, but Houston Nutt is one of the best coaches, ever.

But it's another thing ENTIRELY to get your ass handed to you like that.

Now it's all gonna be talk about a Fluke season, Tech's program ain't
that strong, can you believe they sent Brent Mussberger out to Lubbock
TWICE to cover a fucking Tech game ? and yadayadayada.

Holy shit ... the Utes are just boatracing Alabama!

Please, please, God ... please, please let Utah win that game. Pleasepleasepleaseplease ...

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 02 Jan 2009 22:18

I'm gonna go out to the barn and hang myself now.

this is bullshit. Kentucky actually showed up. that's bullshit.

but Duke, you've got like 30 points on Alabama ...

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 02 Jan 2009 23:58

I hate to be on the other side of the controversy,

but Utah sure has a claim to #1.

I was convinced (even after the loss to Florida in the SEC Championship)
that Alabama was the best team in the nation this year.

Utah handled the Tide convincingly and are undefeated.

I really am gonna go hang myself in the barn now.

Utes! Utes! Utes!

I'm buying a hat and a T-shirt tomorrow! And I don't even really like the school!

Anything to shut up the Southern Excuses Conference, though. I've been dueling all day with Bubbas and Billy Bobs over at ESPN, and the only thing they are "champions" of is running their fool mouths.

Utah should get No. 1 votes. It will be a crime if they don't.

What a great, great day to be alive!
