If a game is rained out, Mark, it simply won't be counted in the tally.

Zach - from time immemorial... deadline for submission is kickoff of the first game.

 

[greenbaggins]

'Fraid so, Zach. That is the way we've always done it, and I didn't make any change to that rule. Personally, I think for next year, we ought to consider taking in late entries, but disqualifying only the games where the kickoff happened before the entry, rather than disqualifying the whole entry. But that will be for next year's grand poobah to decide.

 

[Zach]

Nah, don't mix it up. I need to get my schedule and priorities straight. This is MUCH more important than family time and sermon preparation...plus we know Ben or Edward is going to win anyway!

 

[SolaScriptura]

Nah, don't mix it up. I need to get my schedule and priorities straight. This is MUCH more important than family time and sermon preparation...plus we know Ben or Edward is going to win anyway!

Or maybe it’s not priorities that need straightening out - I hate it when people always attribute these types of things to priorities. Maybe it’s time management. Or learning how to increase efficiency. Or simply learning to be more productive. Etc.

But I get it, not everyone can be amazing. Bam!

 

[greenbaggins]

Whoa, TCU! I thought OK would win, but look at TCU! Go frogs!

 

[SolaScriptura]

Whoa, TCU! I thought OK would win, but look at TCU! Go frogs!

Yeah, I thought TCU’s dominance was astonishing.

 

[SolaScriptura]

Well, well, well… looks like a new person has made it into the winner’s circle!

 

[greenbaggins]

The SMU vs. UCF game is out of the reckoning, which leaves us 11 games for the regular reckoning. According to my count, the following is the result, with Edm getting the flaming Scotsman this week:

Edm 8
Ben 7
Edward 7
Jason F 6
Todd 6
Mark 6
Lane 4

This brings the weekly tally to the following:
Edward
Ben
Edm

Congrats to Edm!

 

[SolaScriptura]

Congrats, Ed!

 

[GulfCoast Presbyterian]

Every time I pick my alma mater, it looses. Every time I pick against them, they win. I therefore predict Ole Miss wins no more games this season.

 

[Edward]

Well, I did hit the winning score in the tiebreaker. Just not enough wins to make it to the tiebreaker.
