JoshR - 2011-12-21 8:01 AM So I have good news and bad news. Bad news first, I'm 1-3. The good news is everyone else is sucking too.

I'd just like to point out that I am at the top of the leaderboard. I am just going to ignore the fact that the current standings have little to nothing to do with your chances of actually winning. I'm just goin to look at the shiny 94th percentile ranking.

woo hoo!!!! I'm on the board!

I like to get my bad picks out of the way early.  Should be claiming the #1 spot here in the next couple of days.

5-0, only 15 points.  Probably should have paid attention to the "Confidence" part of the game!!!!

Nice job. Now if only you keep up that winning streak in the last 5 games to make up for it.

You can still change the confidence of games not started.

Yeah, I did that today but hopefully I didn't jinx myself. 0-for the rest of the games!

Ouch. I know Washington has some history with doing this kind of stuff but this is going to hurt unless something changes. I was betting it would not happen today. Well at least one of us is happy so far.

I picked Baylor but only put 24 on it so I'm guessing it would hurt me less than most.

 

One the upside... it's like watching a game of Madden football.

It's the holiday season, why not give both defense's the night off.  I just hope Baylor wins, ND let me down.

gerald12 - 2012-01-01 6:30 PM 6 bowls on tap for tomorrow. I figure this is where I go down the ranks.

My picks collapsed yesterday. I was 3 for 3 on 12/30, got the morning game and was leading all 3 afternoon games at the half. My alma mater let me down and apparently Tebow now plays for the UTes as well. Missed both of those and of course you got them both right.

I have a bunch of points riding on the unknown bowl games between the BCS games though.

Watching the first half of the UCLA game I thought that they were going to take that one and did not watch the rest of the game. Same with GT vs UT when it was 24-10 I thought that one was wrapped up and went for a run only to come back to a Ute victory.

Took a risk and put 30 points on Auburn last night. But that leaves me with no higher points to lay down other than 24 down to 9. I am 69 in the red right now so I figure some of you guys are going to tear me up now.

I have 3 games now that I have changed my mind on the day of and lost all three, Cinncy, BYU and Toledo.

I went 4-1 on Saturday but of course I missed the highest point one I had. I've still got a lot of big points out there, 282 points possible for me. Of course with how my picks are working so far I'll probably miss all of those.

I've still got 341 points available so it will be interesting to see how bad I can mess that up.

The other thing I think I'm really crushing people in is changing my picks at the last second and them being wrong. If I had just left my original picks I think I might have another 80+ points. For instance, I just changed my pick from Houston to PSU. Brilliant!

Is it bad to cheer for a team you picked? Actually see it is better for me for MSU to win the game.

Well my hopes just went down in flames. 1-3 so far today I had 150+ points today in play and lost most of them. If Oregon loses, I'm going to be in ESPN's bottom 20%.

Wow, that ending screwed some pople.

 

OK St was favored by 4 1/2. How many people thought they covered only to have it overturned by review.

That's what I get for thinking the Big 10 was a good conference this year.  5th place.  I don't even know if I can catch up to the top 3.

 

Can Gerald12 even lose at this point?

Well that was every bit as underwhelming as expected.

 

On a side note, has anyone else noticed that Holly Rowe looks just like Miss Piggy?

I had to look up some pics of her. Yes I see a resemblance.

I thought for sure MI was going to lose that game in overtime.
