Congrats to @ApexNC for winning the panel! There was a mad dash to the finish among the top four. Our friend @phatGator still has a 3pt play on Purdue out there, but otherwise, the panel is finished. One last time, here is your (unofficial) by the numbers . . . Seven of 39 panelists remain. Two fell out during bowl season, one due to missing picks two consecutive weeks. With two games remaining, faves went 4-4 and are 71-76-1 on the season. Five out of 9 panelists increased their pt totals. Panelists went an impressive 13-6 on picks. While last weeks panel made 35 selections, this week there were 20 (phatgator's pick is still out there). Leaders @danmanne65 and @novagator slid from their perch atop the rankings, making way for the big winner @ApexNC (+1498) and runner up, me (+1350). @SmootyGator (+1332) will be third. It's been another fun season. Thank you @RealtyGator and thank you to the statisticians who assisted!
Thanks @gatordavisl for running this competition. It was fun. I'm usually not at all good at wagering games.
Thanks to those who put this together and to the participents who make it fun tk play. I suck at this but maybe one year I can get lucky and at least make it to the end.
