    Memphis tried to give a few in here a heartattack after being up big and letting WV have a chance to win it at the end. Luckily they got the Imt and the call reversal

    I was surprised WVa played as well as they did and looking at the posters who had Memphis their #1 pick I’m not the only one.
    Kind of proud of the Mountaineers. Had a disappointing 6-6 season, their coach fired at end of season and they were down 17 in first half, but fought back and dang near pulled it out. Made an exciting game of it. How can a team with so much going against them go into a low tier bowl game and have so few opt outs?
    Kudos to WVa and interim coach Chad Scott.

    18 of the 25 pickers had Memphis. That is a three way tie with Louisville and TAMU. Memphis's pick average was highest of the 3, so technically it was the 2nd most picked game in terms of possible points... The highest number of picks goes to Syracuse, surprisingly. 23 out of 25 of us have Syracuse. Syracuse also has the highest pick average. So if Syracuse loses, the 2 people who didn't pick them are at a HUGE advantage!

    We have two week's of bowl games and "what ifs" coming up. It's gonna be a fun ride! Buckle up boys and girls!

    Today's only game on our watchlist:

    California - 5/25 - Avg. - 6.60
    vs
    UNLV - 8/25 - Avg. - 5.25

    Good thing I'm not participating in this one.

    There's a few that have either Cal or UNLV as one of their top two spots. So this game is going to be quite meaningful...

    I would pick the exact opposite of you if my picks already weren’t so random.

    Nice, you've already hit your 10 and 9 pointer! You might even be the "real time" leader right now...
