Um, Vee, did you notice that you didn't pick a winner in the Pittsburgh/Cincinnati game?

Thanks! That's what happens when you try to do important stuff at work and keep getting interrupted by customers and employees!

Actually, with the exception of that game, you and I have identical picks.

And the only difference between me and rick is that I took UCF over SMU. Hope we're all right on the others!

Actually, Rick picked Washington State over Washington too. Still, nobody seems to be taking big risks this week.

West Virginia
Pitt
Central Florida
South Florida
Oregon
Auburn
Washington
Virginia Tech
Oklahoma
UCLA

We've all been burned. Pick a risky one, and the favorite wins. Pick the favorite number one team in the country, and they go out and get beat by Bob's Burger University and Egg Scramble Emporium.

West Virginia - big victory over Marshall has them riding high

Pitt

Central Florida

Uconn - bowl game here we come

Oregon

Auburn

Nebraska

Cobie, I wanted to pick Nebraska, but just couldn't bring myself to do it.

It's def the toughest pick, and my head is telling me OK but my gut is telling me the Cornhuskers. Since everyone went with the Sooners, this can really help or hurt me!

Should be a solid game though! I was with some OK alumni this week and they were all really excited the schedule led to this great game at seasons end.

I guess it is too late to change my Pittsburgh/Cincinnati guess...

Mostly, that was wishful thinking, being from the Cincinnati area.

^Hey, I'd certainly have a better score if I didn't pick Clemson every time!

Looks like I ain't gonna get to see the game. It comes on at 4 and I have to take the boy to Sumter, SC to go to the christmas lights at Swan Lake (not the play, the actual Swan Lake and Iris Gardens). Its a family tradition and this year they picked the day that the game is on.

I expect hella good luvvin' fer givin up the only champeenship game I may ever see for SC.

Glad I missed it now. Lord a'mighty.

Well, I just did a quick check, and if I counted right, we all did 80% except for Vee who did 90%.

I watched the Oklahoma/Nebraska game last night - I have never been so disappointed to have a correct pick. *sigh*

Same here, Lance. I was really hoping Carolina would have it's shit together, but nope. Still, we got a lot of major firsts this year. First win over Florida in the swamp, first over a #1 ranked team. First consecutive years win over Clemson in decades. First time to have a reciever and running back both over 1,000 yards in the same season.

I think we have the makings. A better O line would be a big help for next year.

So Vee, how'd we wind up?

Here are the results for the final week of of the regular season....

Hee are this week's results...

Lardy 8 of 10 - 80%
Rick 8 of 10 - 80%
Vee 9 of 10 - 90%
Cobie 8 of 10 - 80%
Lance 8 of 10 - 80%

And the overall standings are as follows:

Cobie - 55 of 91 = 60%
Rick - 66 of 110 = 60%
Vee - 62 of 110 = 56%
Lardy - 55 of 89 = 62%
Lance - 55 of 90 = 61%

By the way, I just discovered that Lardy's average from last week was incorrect. It should have been 60%, not 53% as is posted. Sorry Lardy!

And so another regular season of college football comes to an end. Congrats to Lardy for ending up with a combined 62% but you all were really neck and neck. That one week when i went 0 for 10 really did me in! (Still can't believe I actually did that! )

So only the Bowl Season remains!

Question: Do you want to pick bowl games like last year (either broken down into two groups of 10 match ups, with the first group coming from the best of the pre-New Years games and the other with the major bowls or just one massive 35 bowl pick em) or let it be?

You tell me whether you want to go on or not.

Go ahed and pick some bowl games, Vee!

I'm just one game behind Lardy? Bring on the Bowl games!

Congrats to Lardy on winning the regular season! It's amazing at how close we all are! Within 1-2% of each other.

It just is impossible in college football to predict above 70%, IMO.

I honestly can't believe I won!?!?! Didja double check your figs, Vee?

In any case I'm game for a Bowl Edition. I'm a little cautious because this was planned and posted last year but fell off the radar during the holidays somehow. 'Long as we're all-in, I am, too.
