post 3 has been updated
as with every week.. i would recommend double checking that i entered your picks correctly

kenbuzz · 11-07-09, 02:36 PM

reserved for second page, second week gloating.

PS - Northwestern does have me a tad worried. They're up 7 with the ball and 8:00 to play at Iowa.

Oh! Iowa's QB is out, that 'spains it. Oh well, it was a nice run at the top. KV looks to reclaim first.

So, I take over first (Clemson) and it takes a few days to update the standings. Someone else does it (in spite of the fact that none of my teams have played) and it's an up-to-the-minute update.

twikoff · 11-07-09, 04:52 PM

pumpkins, fall festivals, etc.. kept me tied up the past couple weekends
this one Im sick and have nothing better to do while watching the games than give you a hard time

kenbuzz · 11-07-09, 05:21 PM

It's all good. Remember, I don't know sh*t about college football. It's all about a formula in my spreadsheet that turns the Vegas line and the # of points each game is worth into a calculated expectation. Every game gets scored based on those two variables, they're sorted in order of greatest expected return, and I pick-off the three at the top.

If I'm not doing anything else on a Saturday, I'll open a browser to check the Top 25 results.

This week, KV has mathematically bumped me from first. He matched my picks right down the line except for one. My 9 point lead and tOSU's possible 4 point result is less than the 18 he just got due to that Iowa QB being injured. Dem's the breaks.

twikoff · 11-07-09, 07:15 PM

i switched my osu pick to stanford this morning shortly before the deadline.. and Im glad I did now

just wish i had switched it with my lsu pick instead, and left osu

Not a good week to have forgotten your picks:

19 points: (7) Oregon lost 51-42 to Stanford
18 points: (8) Iowa lost 17-10 to Northwestern
4 points: (11) Penn St lost 24-7 to Ohio St

Plus in-progress:
13 points: (13) Houston tied 14-14 with Tulsa
3 points: (23) California losing 14-7 to Oregon St

And though it doesn't affect me, it's always great to see the Midshipmen beat Notre Dame!

kenbuzz · 11-07-09, 11:37 PM

Stupid Houston last-second game-winning FG. I was hoping KV and I might pick up 14 extra points and separate a little more from the pack.

starman9000 · 11-08-09, 12:32 AM

Gah, as bad as I feel about missing the Iowa pick, my other two non-winners couldn't have been closer in Conn and Wake.

At least I ended my terrible scoreless streak, even though everyone else scored too.

wlmowery · 11-08-09, 10:41 PM

I'll take it. Even though I had to sit through that awful performance by PSU!
