    USC and Virginia Tech were two lively home dogs, in fact they were favored to win in Vegas, so not really dogs.

    USC romped and VT lost in overtime, so a net gain for me.

    Arizona has been going downhill while WSU and it's wily Captain Leach is on the upswing. Thought it would be close and it was in the end, but WSU dominated most of the game and got the win. I chose the wrong side there.

    The mystery of Ohio U and Buffalo did many no favors, including me. Was kind of a crap shoot was again on the wrong side.

    Still I will take 42 point week and run and happily was on the right side with the Horns, was a nice birthday present. Would have spoiled the day if Texas had lost.

    I only missed one pick last week and still managed to finish tied for 6th. Sometimes I think I really am George Costanza.

    lol George. Texas killed me. I had 10 points on the Horns, silly me. Looking forward to TCU v. Ok State this week -- should be a good one.

    I'm finally back within striking distance of some people. That means I'll probably get about 4 points this week.

    A lot of tricky picks this week. Plenty of chances to move up or tumble down.

    Its a dog fight for getting on the podium with the Bronze as MWA said !!

    Going out on a limb but I'm more confident this week than just about any other this year. Which means I'm looking at a score in the 20's.

    UTAH again......why did I pick the pig......it is my own fault, 4 possibly 6 of us still have a chance for the Bronze!!!!!

    Upsets everywhere, no time to go conservative, could have been worse if TCU had hit on the pass for two point to win.

    That was just bad on Patterson's decision making, it was Les Milesish.....they had all the MO, Mayfield was out......take it to OT......Patterson is an idiot. TCU will be lucky to be .500 next year without Boykin and Dotson.

    @I_Dont_Exist Great idea!

    I created a 'Fans of Hornfans' group for the Bowl Mania using Confidence scoring. I hope everyone will join again.

    Congrats Wideawake on winning, but it really isn't polite to win your own contest. :smile1:

    I am UTHorn84 and finished second.

    Seriously, that was fun, looking forward to the bowl contest, I will certainly participate.

    I'm in cuz I'm a glutton for punishment! Did I read correctly that there are 41 bowls this year? That's a lot of bowl games I can "mis-pick" ha!
