Totally surprised that the game was not close!

Tomorrow will be a tough one and should provide a chance to catch up. Can't see my luck continuing like this ....Not talking

Getting my azz kicked too! Guess that's what I get for trusting intuition instead of Vegas. Already got my 10'er picked out, just waiting to see who's gonna get 'em. Herfing

Looks like we have the first underdog win of the Bowl Season. Grats to FIU and anyone who jumped on.

I live about 30 miles from WMU and the football team has been mediocre since PJ Fleck took his boat to Minnesota! d'oh!

Unfortunately, the Gophers aren't rowing the boat either. Think

I switched my pick last minute on Duke Temple...d'oh!

Looking forward to Sconsin Miami...prolly get to watch some of that one.Beer

On a side note: Vegas has really been stinking it up lately. Only two winners out of the last nine. Need to start trusting my gut more.

Also made a change on the next game but not saying who I changed to. Shame on you

What was the over score on the MSU vs OR?

Typical Big 10 vs PAC12 defensive battle.

Think the percentages for all games are for the numbers of all participating players who have picked that team...so for the Capital One game, 85% of the people playing the College Bowl Pick'em Contest chose Alabama....

ohhhh....

Think

prolly it represents the percentile of players who picked that number of winning teams...

so at 90.1 % you did better than 90.+% of all people playing...and only 9.9% of players picked more winning teams than you...

2nd and 3rd is probably going to come down to who has the best guess for the final score... unless someone picks the upset and gets it right Think

You guys do know that the one with the lowest score wins. Of which, I dominated.
