    I am pretty sure you already have enough points to win. gator_n_sc can't catch you.

    Assuming Bama/wash wins, that K state game is what put me down. Smooty will finish with 45 points to my 35. I had a 3 pt lead in standings so that puts him 7 points ahead. His K state pick was 8 points which would have taken 8 from his 45 to equal 37 at the same time It would have added 3 points to my 35 because of NC state was my 3 pointer and that would have put me up 1 point. Thanks alot Kansas State smh

    I'm thinking he's the same Ole Miss coach that brought his #5 ranked team into The Swamp just to get his azz kick in by the swamp donkey. These dame formula will happen they pay players to come play for his sorry butt an they look good but he will still lose the bigs game when they matter.

    That coach is a well polished turd.

    Lol... even a broken clock is right twice a day. :D

    But we did learn something about Auburn's coach... he's the same guy that will beat a few teams that will surprise people but he can't help laying that egg like the chicken that he is. These players that got suckered into that used car salesman pitch will find out sooner of later. He's the way dumber version of Mullen with a great NIL pay-to-play system in place.

    You were probably kidding, but I believe my 50 points are the most this round. I went from 15 points down to second only because Smooty also had good picks. I even passed gator_n_sc who was leading coming into these picks.

    I only sent them in privately because I thought more of the leaders would do the same.

    Lol... it's all good, I just didn't think people here would steal your picks, that's all. And my comment about you picks specifically were tongue-in-cheek. :D;)

    Good job with you picks, by the way.

    Congrats Smoot. Sorry SC. With 50 + points and unpredictable bowl games with opt outs etc it was hard to pick winners without flipping a coin

    The 1st thing that jumps out at me is I'm not in 1st. That's got to be wrong. :emoji_sob: I demand a recount. :emoji_tired_face:
