College (Football) Pick 'Em

[Dimwhit]

Yup, you're right. I was in a hurry and didn't notice. I wonder if it will be updated? :\

I noticed yesterday before the game that the next week's picks were up and available. I'm thinking that the system is fully automated and, since the game didn't happen on Saturday, the game got kicked and not counted. Which would be a shame. Hopefully, someone at ESPN.com notices and fixes it.

Or maybe it will correct itself soon...

Blech! This is shaping up to be a horrible week for me. I split the 4 early games, getting 8 points from Virginia Tech and 10 from Tennesse but losing 5 points from Oklahoma St. and 2 from Michigan St. Alas, 3 of my other picks are currently losing big, Minnesota (7), Florida (4), and USC (1).

 

[Dimwhit]

Wow, I'm hosed this week. I lost 1 point on Michigan State, 5 on Oklahoma St, 3 on Penn State, 4 on Florida, 6 on Nebraska...

Horrible, horrible week for me. I'll probably get in the mid-30s this week.

Dumb luck is paying off!

Actually, I just looked at all the picks. I've won the week. I got my 6-10 games, and regardless of the ND outcome, I think I'll squeek out the win (I'll have 40 or 42 points, depending on whether ND wins).

Whaddaya know...

Edit: If ND wins, I can come within 9 points of overall first! If they lose, I'll fall to 14 points behind. The intrigue mounts...

Edit Edit: And at 28-0, ND is looking pretty good so far...

Eek. Two straight nearly last-place weeks. And I can't blame homer-ism too much for this, as Syracuse only cost me a point (but I'd feel awful if SU pulled off the upset and I picked against them).

Week 5 results:

Dimwhit 42
reveal 37
fett527 35
Dungannon 34
drothgery 32
Bront 24

The Big 10 picks I made this week really hurt me. MSU, Purdue and Minnesota all let me down.

Overall:

Dungannon 205
Dimwhit 196
drothgery 189
fett527 182
reveal 160
Bront 148

I'm coming for ya drothgery!

Footnote: If you didn't notice, point totals were adjusted for the Tenn/LSU game.

Better watch out, guys. The Dimwhit has won two straight weeks!

Next week's picks are up, and there are some BRUTAL choices. Gonna be a tough week to pick.

I think Cal at UCLA is one of the toughest.
