    That's what I was thinking. Utah State was one soft team. Gives me hope for Utah game if the West is that soft.

    Sometimes it’s not what u gain but what others lose in points. #Washington I have 1 point on

    I missed on four games yesterday but only lost less than 20 points. I have a hard time picking those lesser bowls because usually dont play anyone and lose the couple hard games they do play. It literally seems like a coin toss. I guess I could say that for just about all of them. Oh well, I guess if I had the time to spend I could have done more than glancing research. :smile1:

    Hey Everyone! A moment, please, of skeptical respect for this idoit who currently sits in 2nd place. Behind only Longhorn Catholic. It's early, and things will inevitably head downhill, but I'm grabbing it while I can.

    No offense but we should name LC the Dude because he abides. Because yea, well, you know, that’s just, like, my opinion, man.

    I wont's last long. I earned high points on these first few bowl games, but lost a few too, so I'll be scratching and crawling rest of the way.

    Rant!
    Miami Football is really the mother of all train wrecks. Then you throw in Diaz. Congrats to those who saw it and picked La. Tech, a pretty crappy CUSA team but apparently much better than Miami.
    Miami has done terrible in bowls and got beat by FIU, I figured they would be inspired to get the monkey finally off their back, but their QB couldn't hit water from a boat. Or couldn't hit water with water.
    Rant closed.

    I suffered through that Miami vs La Tech game. That was some putrid QB play! Thanks to Sam for keeping us out of that in 2019!

    Took a risk on Memphis thinking Penn State would not be that interested. Wrong. That was very costly.

    I've moved from 13 to 6th in 3 days.
    Its always interesting to see who puts more points on early games vs points on later, bigger bowls.
    I'm personally more comfortable with points on teams that I am more familiar with...unless it is a real obvious mismatch.
    Right now lit like a rocket ship on these matchups.
    I've got some real risky plays w big points on tap, though, so...

    Usually it takes 90 percent plus to win, opportunity still there

    I'm always shocked when I see 100% late or at end of seasons. Makes me wonder if they've found a way to hack the system. That seems nearly unbelievable.
    I'm happy just having fun and competing against myself along side my hornsfriends.

    Yesterday was a good day for me. There's some toss up games left that I should have moved to lower confidence ratings. Oh well, it's a 50/50 toss up.

    I was in 5th place and then tanked. Lots of points left just need to pick some winners.

    I was at 99%, and then yesterday happened. I'm now at 82%. Now sure how the calculations work, but I'd say I had the same kind of day as :ousucks: did.

    I was tied with someone last I looked. I’ probably dropped again.

    It has me as ESPN Fan and not AC. Not sure what happened there but 6th place so far. Over half my points are in bowls not played yet. I need a Texas win!

    Forgive me for I have sinned.
    Never..never...bite on sec hype and talk yourself out of a solid pick in favor of a mid-tier sec program and throw 11 points in the trash.
    I am 8 out of last 10 games and one of those misses was my Louisville pick I went back and changed two days ago...stupidly.

    I picked Horns over the Utes but with only 10 point confidence.

    IDC - We win! :yippee::hookem:

    Well, looks like AC has this thing just about wrapped up. He is killing the rest of us and still has the most available points yet to win. I'm now in 5th place and if some luck rolls my way I could be 3rd by the end of the day.

    For a bunch of guys who chant SEC SEC SEC is overrated y'all sure like to pick SEC teams to win. Lucky for me I guess. :beertoast:
