I had wondered what happened to my entry from last night. As a conspiracy theorist, now I understand what happened.

Why do refs hate the Vols so much? First the Bama game when no fouls were called, and now Mizzou? No fouls called, TN is getting held every other play. This is embarrassing. Games like this make one think they are getting thrown for Vegas's sake.

Pretty sure the refs aren't responsible for the Vols total destruction by Missiouri in this game... (penalties are even btw, at least in number). Three turnovers doesn't help you to victory.

I meant to update my pics today, but alas, I forgot to get those changes submitted.

Certainly had a few twists and turns along the way this week - Washington coming back from being down at home to Utah to hold off the Utes, and Indiana managing an overtime victory over Illinois. Maryland-Nebraska had a whole lot of nothing, as did Iowa-Rutgers, where Iowa managed a shutout victory without producing much offense at all. Couple this with Missouri's manhandling of Tennessee, Auburn's crushing victory over the Razorbacks, and UCF totally destroying Oklahoma State, there certainly were high highs and low lows in this week's slate of games.

In the end of the day, Lane and Dan came away with 7 correct picks - a mere majority - to lead the pack. With Lane's much lower scoring and closer game prediction on the Michigan - Penn State tiebreaker, he picks up his third . Congratulations!
