I will never make changes, no matter what I hear. I did that last year and it never worked out. I make my picks and don't look at them again till Saturday results.

I do the same Doyle. Every time I change, it burns me.

Same here. Once I make the picks there is no changing. Just made mine 3/4's drunk, no telling what happens.

I'm stuck between 4 and 11 with 8 minutes to go. This is stressful.

I will start an new weekly staple. Week 6 pick of the week: Me picking WF with 12 confidence points.
I will take other submissions. However, this weekly award will usually go to someone who picks a game that no one else does as long as the confidence points are over 5.

I like that idea. That's the type of thing we'll have to start doing to keep this thing interesting to all parties whether they're still in it or not.
I do think you got beat out this week though, by Finch. His pick of Penn St over Iowa at 12 confidence points is bigger, simply due to the fact that the spread is much closer.
Honorable mentions are Thundering Turds Oregon St at 11, and Fake Chows Ohio St at 20.

It might help to go off what everyone else had as their confidence points too. For example there was a 20, 19, 18, 14, and 13 for FSU over WF. But yes I see what you are saying, those are valid candidates. We should have a vote.

I like this idea, sounds fun. I'll give Framp the title this week since it was on a game that everyone else was pretty confident would go the other way.
No after looking at the games it might have to go to Thundering Turd and Org. State. Similar confidence points but a much tighter spread.
Looks like we will need a vote.

I have a feeling I will come crashing down this week, I was pretty much just flipping a coin when I made my picks.

I have resigned myself to the fact that I suck at football game picking now.

Just got home from a long week in Brownwood with no phone service. Looks like I had quite the week. From last to second.

I was shocked I dropped to last in one week. Then, realized this thing is within reach for anyone. We're only 40 points apart from top to bottom.
