Michigan paid Appalachian State $400,000 to kick its ass.

It's sick that I scored 47 points and am ninth. And below the 50th percentile. Damn.

One game down, one game won by highest margin (69 points). One team ranked ahead of us fallen.
October 6th coming up.

Michigan as highest confidence is a wow. I get the logic, but still, wow.

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
I do think this week overall is harder.

Penn State over Notre Dame = 10
Boston College over NC State = 9 (sorry smell)
Nebraska over Wake Forest = 8
OU over Miami (Fl) = 7
Boise State over Washington = 6
Auburn over South Florida = 5
Georgia over South Carolina = 4
TCU over Texas = 3
Michigan over Oregon = 2
LSU over Virginia Tech = 1

antidan444 09-05-2007 02:13 PM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
The logic would be that you know Michigan is gonna come in ready to go, and Oregon may take them lightly.

fmxda 09-05-2007 02:27 PM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
But on the flipside Oregon is a lot better than Appalachian State

antidan444 09-05-2007 02:33 PM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
I'm not so sure about "a lot" better.

antidan444 09-05-2007 02:34 PM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
I'm not sure any team is "a lot" better than ASU. Maybe USC.

antidan444 09-05-2007 02:34 PM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
Mind you, I consider "a lot" to be pretty substantial, like 4-5 touchdowns.

Picks

BC > NC State - 10
Penn State > Notre Dame - 9
Georgia > South Carolina - 8
Nebraska > Wake - 7
Oklahoma > Miami - 6
LSU > VT - 5
Michigan > Oregon - 4
Auburn > South Florida - 3
Texas > TCU - 2
Boise > Washington - 1

I almost put the Georgia game as my 10 but couldn't do it - that said I was really pleasantly surprised by how good they looked last week.

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
my picks are in

don't remember what they are

it pained me to pick ou though [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I didn't put Texas as my most confident pick. If I thought it would help them win, I'd do it in a heartbeat though.

I think Texas' season might be over after that game. It's def. their toughest before October 6th

Clown also thought Marshall would beat Miami in Miami. Funny guy, that clown. That's almost as bad as thinking Appalachian State had a prayer against Michi ... oh wait.

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
Hmm.. so every weak I will pick at least one underdog, but I'm not sure I really like my underdog pick here.

But there is NO WAY IN HELL I pick OK over UM!!!

antidan444 09-06-2007 01:03 PM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
I've never really understood the logic to picking upsets. Sure, there usually is 1-2 a week ... but I find it's always more likely that you miss on YOUR upset pick, plus you miss the upset that does happen, and then you lose twice instead of once.

I could be metagaming here ...

If everyone just picked the favs, then it would just rely on the confidence factor.... and if everone just used the spread to determine that, this would be a boring exercise [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

OK, maybe I won't "ALWAYS" pick an upset, but usually there are games that I feel will swing the other way... like my Ga Tech pick last week.

BTW, I want to kick myself for accidentally unpicking Mizzou when making my confidence order last week.

This would be more interesting/difficult if it was done vs the spread rather than straight up.

Agreed. I think all-time I'm like 2 and 1,458 against the spread.

And here I thought I was going to lose major ground after my homer pick of Georgia went splat.

CPFB - please start picking worse

Tough week, but still not too far behind, which is good

CPFB has rigged College Football ldo

antidan444 09-10-2007 10:55 AM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
I was looking great until Auburn f'ing lost.

Oh well. Still a good week for me.

CPFB 09-10-2007 04:07 PM

Re: POG College Pick\'em
 
If I had rigged college football, ou woulda lost by 70 this week.

I think they will schedule San Jose State, Dartmouth, Miss Valley State, Opolaka Community College, and Hellen Keller's school for the blind next year just to insure a winning season!
