You the man .. smile

The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers.
First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves.
It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

Between The Law And The Mafia, The Law Is Not The Most To Be Feared

"What if the Mafia were not an organization but a widespread Sicilian attitude of hostility towards the law?"

I got Ohio State over USC, we'll see. I also have Purdue knocking off Oregon and Notre Dame beating Michigan.

I don't follow college football that closely, I semi-root for the Boilermakers and Notre Dame. I like LSU too. They are Tigers, I like Tigers. Addai. They win, and Les Miles seems like a good coach. Don't know who their QB is this year, they seem to go pretty fast. Russell then Flynn, and now...

I put all of my confidence points on VIRGINIA to beat DUKE! lol

That just shows you out of touch I am with the game overall these days, I'm still thinking of the Virginia from 4 or 5 years ago when they had one of the best recruiting classes in the country, and the Duke team that was going 0-10 every year. lol

Ahhhh.. what an idiot. Cuz the 'Dukies' are 21 points better than the 'Hooves' these days.

My 10 point...

I don't know jack shit about college football and I am amazed I am doing this well, problem is just about everyone in this group is doing awesome!

I think I was the only one who picked 'Bama. Too bad I only did it for 1 point.

Jeez, still in 5th place...

I'm doing awesome for knowing nothing about college football. I had a feeling this week was going to go bad because I almost picked every away team to win.

Good job, JG.

I am not sure why I put it at 7, and Notre Dame should have been higher too. Bah.

Horrible week for most, looks like worse for people outside the group because the top 6 are in the 90% right now.

After an all-around great week, a pathetic week. But as LN points out below, it seems everyone had a bad week.

Still waiting on the weekly avg and high score to see if rankings are legit.

Edit: Rankings weren't legit. As I suspected, the avg scores weren't calculated yet. But the weekly AVG was a lowly 13, so we did pretty well I suppose...

The sad thing is we all did better than most, I moved up about 7-8% with my 17 points. Ice is in the 100% range, JG and JL are at 99.9%. Our top 7 are above 90%...

For me it has nothing to do with how many leagues I am in. I started grad school a few months ago and I am getting married this week. I pretty much only have time to watch 1 game a week and of course that is the Buckeyes. Coupled with the fact that every week there are about 5 toss up games in the Pick 'Em.

I do think the SEC should just start there own league. It could be like AAA for the NFL.

Business bad? Fuck you, pay me. Oh, you had a fire? Fuck you, pay me. Place got hit by lightning huh? Fuck you, pay me.

I hear ya, DA. I've recently started a new career and have very little time. I actually made my picks this weekend about 15 minutes prior to kick off in the midst of my parents shouting at me over the phone.

Worked out pretty well, though! smile
