We all pretty much sucked this week--lots of 10/17's.

Props to the GA crew--I didn't think you'd cover under your QB situation. Consider me schooled.

I know alot of people hate these football threads, but I wanted to remind everyone to make their picks ASAP, so they don't forget. The final lines are out for the week.
I figured a reminder was due when the majority of the top five had yet to make their picks.
Here who still needs to pick:
FT
Saint Longhorn/Patrick
Z
hookedonstars
Jagged
Sketch, if he is still in
Harry, if he is still in
Tommy Two Thumbs, ditto.

FT and hookedonstars have about 13hrs to make their picks. I shouldn't remind FT since he is in the lead, but I want to play fair.
Plus, it would suck to lose to two five players up to this point in one week.

After 2 weeks of missing the deadline, I made picks.

I think I am doing pretty good so far today, I picked Colorado against the spread and only have two losses so far. I believe I am at least tied with FT right now for overall lead.

You are right, but you had one of the best week overall. It was the most brutal week to date for this little competition.
Z
Schadenfreude
Stop Breathin
and
Rick Derris, all made big strides in this contest.
FT dropped like a rock.

Billzebub aka Ben Toothlessberger brought this up on the Pick'em site, since Rutgers is ranked and they play Friday night, all picks have to be in five minutes before that game starts or roughly 6:55pm.
I suggest you make your picks a day or two earlier than usual or ASAP so nobody forgets this week.

The conference season begins, so there are some intriguing games.

I believe I picked Rutgers too, but I am hedging all that on the fact I think Nebraska will annihilate Kansas who just played South Florida and that Rutgers is indeed worthy of a ranking.

I had no idea you were Ben Toothlessberger until you mentioned Rutgers, then it was obvious.

Saint Longhorn needs to make his picks ASAP
SKETCH needs to make his picks too.
Don't be the big losers, especially after you missed a week already Sketch
Harry is missing this week too, don't be like Sketch
Tommy don't be like Sketch and Harry, make your picks

Under 30 minutes fuckers, don't lay a brick on this, you can't let Mutty win by attrition.

I think most of you missed the boat, you might be able to get your picks in for tomorrow's games, but I don't think so.
The Rutgers game is starting now.

Derris and Stop Breathin should be leading after this week, Derris is 10-7 right now, but I am guessing he will be 10-8 if the dawgs don't cover. FT is 10-8.
Schadenfreude should be up there too, either tied with the both of them or one back. FT and myself should be tied with Z for 2nd or 3rd in the standings overall.
Not a bad week, but nobody was stellar.

Z and Huskerpunk are tied for 2nd
I'm in 4th
