[Edward]

I'll pick Ole Miss, but I'll be cheering for the Tigers.

 

[Taylor]

I’ve never done this, but I do keep up with it a little. I am curious: Why is Georgia never included?

Georgia has yet to be included because none of the games so far that Georgia has played were predicted to be close games. The main criteria I use is close games. That creates a larger spread of correct guesses among those participating. Believe me, when Georgia plays Tennessee, that game will be on the list!

Ah, I understand. As I said, I was simply curious. What? Georgia and Vanderbilt wasn't a close game?

Clemson - Syracuse???

Lol. Well, it is a ranked game, and who knows, it could be close!

 

[Edm]

I totally forgot about last nights game. Am I allowed to enter if I start -1 on the Saturday games?

 

[toddpedlar]

I won't entirely speak for the Grand Poohbah, but rather only as a Grand Poohbah of Christmas Past, but, no. Entries have to be in before the first game kicks off, even in this kind of a situation.

 

[Edm]

Ok thanks

 

[greenbaggins]

The best thing is for everyone to check in on Monday afternoon and make their choices then. My plan is to have last week's results up and next week's games up by noon on Monday.

 

[greenbaggins]

Clemson - Syracuse???

This jest is not aging well.

 

[Edward]

17-0 in the 4th quarter.

This jest is not aging well.

 

[SolaScriptura]

Winner?

 

[greenbaggins]

Well, three of us got 9 correct answers, but all guessed the wrong winner on the tie-breaker. So that means Todd is the winner today, as first entry. Here are the results:

Todd 9
Lane 9
Edward 9
Earl 7
Mark 6
Ben 6
Zach 5
Jason F 4

This leaves the weekly total at the following:

Edward
