Actually, Oakton is killing it... he's 5 for 5. He just hasn't assigned any points to these early games.Bay_area_Hokie wrote:The Kongster is killing it right now....

Re: UWS Bowl Pick 'em
Sorry, but its more of a reverse mojo thing. I play in a weekly college pick'em against the spread every season and I always pick against us. In the old days, I was wrong quite a bit and I loved it. But recently Ive been right in my pick way more than I like. Trust me, I'll take a VT win over winning a football pool any day.BigDave wrote:-1 to Upstate for picking against Virginia Tech

Re: UWS Bowl Pick 'em
If you click on each person's pick set, you can see the updated scores. If I'm reading it right, you're in 3rd with 142 points behind me (with 146 pts) and BigDave (with 170 pts).Bay_area_Hokie wrote:And I had 35 on ASU.....from the outhouse to the penthouse maybe LOL

Re: UWS Bowl Pick 'em
I blew 62 points on Carolina and Miami, only picked up 3 on Virginia Tech. But I'm still in third place, apparently, so we'll see how this pans out. LOLBay_area_Hokie wrote:I put 37 on the Hokies...maybe I will get out of the near cellar!

Re: UWS Bowl Pick 'em
I am 18/36.
Right in the meaty part of the curve. Not showing off, not falling behind (costanza).
It also means that a monkey flinging his own feces at a wall marked "favorite" and "underdog" would do as well as I did.
I picked ark state tomorrow. That will determine for once and for all time, whether I know more about college football that a feces slinging monkey.
Come on, Arkansas state.

If you bend over backwards long enough,
eventually you'll fall down.

Re: UWS Bowl Pick 'em
Congratulations to Major Kong on winning this year's game. Though there is some room for movement in the final standings, nobody can catch up with Major Kong, regardless of the outcome of the MNC.
A few people have not picked the championship game yet ... so if you want to improve your positioning, go pick the championship. IP Law Hokie, Oakton, Tough Guy, Nolan, and HokieFanDC - it looks like you have not made a pick for the final game.

Re: UWS Bowl Pick 'em
Know what's interesting? We all picked around the same number of games correctly. I got 19. Kong got 22. And most of us got somewhere around 20-22. It's just all about the confidence levels. Kudos on those of you who nailed the high-value picks, man!
