Arizona vs. Utah is on ESPN right now, Any prediction on who is going to win?

[ACCBiggz]

I picked Zona... Really like Stoops and his defensive mindset.

As for UCF, rebuilding. O'Leary is a good coach, he had Georgia Tech as an ACC contender at one point. I would say UCF will win a couple games this year, and in another year or two, O'Leary will have them playing respectable ball.

[Cole]

Damn, I didn't even realise we were playing with the spread. That's cost me two games now...:pinch:

[Guest Morecello]

Unranked TCU beat Oklahoma...I can't fuckin belevie it. Peterson only had 63 rushing yards.

[ACCBiggz]

I can believe it... didn't think it'd happen.

Peterson, solid back... but when you lose Reciveing and your QB, they focused on Peterson and shut him down and couldn't provide any passing, therefore was pretty easy singling out the running game.

edit: just noticed in the EWB Pick Em' we are doing spreads? Why, that is really gay.... and I therefore will not be making any more picks. Spreads suck.

I was shocked by that score too.

[oldskool]

It looks like I suck, but I've got at least 40 confidence points in the three games yet to be played.

[Cole]

I ended up having the right picks but lost the game 'cause of the spread.

I thought the spread was just there for spread purposes.

Oh, well...after learning this next week will be better.

[Guest Morecello]

What are sprads? I didn't know it ws set up using spreads. I can fix that I beleive.

[ACCBiggz]

Some games where we selected winners were lost... because they didn't meet spreads.

When a team is projected to win by a certain amount of points. A team has to cover the spread in order for us to win. Spreads are generally used in gambling by bookies.

[Guest Morecello]

Alright well I fixed it and turned spreads off. So I hope you still stick around in the league.

[Cole]

Well, I'm glad you took point spread off.

As for this week, I only have two wrong going into the late games. Looking up to be a pretty good week

[ACCBiggz]

I got fucked last week 'cause I forgot to do my picks, I did get like the last 5 games in and put the highest point amount on them and got them all right so I did come away with like 60 or 70 IIRC.

I can still make a run for it if ACC has a bad week, too bad about last week, he and I would have had a close battle all season if I would have done my picks.

I did do this weeks yesterday though just to be safe

[ACCBiggz]

I've picked a few risky games just to make things intresting...
