I'm gonna predict UGA beats UF this week. I just have feeling! :popcorn2:

These are two big non-SEC games to keep an eye on:

3:30 PM   No. 14 Texas Tech at No. 3 Kansas State   FOX      

8:00 PM   No. 5 Notre Dame at No. 8 Oklahoma  ABC

It could be a weekend where the BCS picture gets clearer.

These definitely have to be in there. Huge games with nc implications.

These 9 games include all 6 SEC games, the two BCS relevant games, and Ohio State v. Penn State:

12:00 PM   Tennessee at No. 13 South Carolina     ESPN
12:00 PM   Kentucky at Missouri   ESPNU   
12:21 PM   Ole Miss at Arkansas   SEC Network    
3:30 PM   No. 2 Florida vs. No. 10 Georgia   CBS
3:30 PM   No. 14 Texas Tech at No. 3 Kansas State   FOX   
5:30 PM   Ohio State at Penn State    ESPN
7:00 PM   No. 20 Texas A&M at Auburn    ESPNU
8:00 PM   No. 5 Notre Dame at No. 8 Oklahoma  ABC
8:30 PM   No. 11 Mississippi State at No. 1 Alabama    ESPN

I know that's SEC heavy, and completely ignores the PAC12 and ACC, which offers these games below.  Add one to the list, or remove maybe the Kentucky Mo game and add two of these-- the ACC game and  one of the PAC12 games -- although personally I'm tired of picking the PAC12.

3:00 PM   UCLA at Arizona State   FX         
3:30 PM   No. 9 USC at Arizona     ABC/ESPN2   
3:30 PM   Duke at No. 12 Florida State    ESPNU

Other Big10 Options (other than Ohio State v. Penn State), or if we maybe decide not to pick the Bama game, as some people would like:
3:30 PM   Michigan State at No. 25 Wisconsin     ABC/ESPN2
8:00 PM   No. 22 Michigan at Nebraska    ESPN2

I wonder how long into the game it'll be before one of the announcers on PSU vs. OSU says, "feels like a BOWL game atmosphere!"

Ok, so if we don't include the Bama game, then maybe these 10?

5:30 PM   Ohio State at Penn State    ESPN
7:00 PM   No. 20 Texas A&M at Auburn    ESPNU
8:00 PM   No. 5 Notre Dame at No. 8 Oklahoma  ABC
8:00 PM   No. 22 Michigan at Nebraska    ESPN2   

Optional afternoon games:

Do you think Texas A&M will beat Auburn by at least 15½ points?
 
That's a Big 10-4!   :lol:

These games are tough when you get to looking at them with the point spread.

Oklahoma over Notre Dame by 10 points?

Now XBAMA and Chechem are on top at 3-0.

Post by: ALTideUp on October 27, 2012, 03:30:41 PM
After weeks of making me wonder if the SEC east is the real deal, today I'm thinking, meh. USCe can barely beat 10rc. Now a UGA team that struggled with Ky is playing with Fl. The game is a mess of turnovers and penalties so far.


Title: Re: Week 9 Games

Good Lord, FSU has already covered that ridiculous spread and it is barely in the 2nd Qtr.  31-0 over Duke.

It is 31-7 at half. I picked Duke plus the points. It does not look look. Maybe Jimbo will take his foot off the gas in the 2nd half.

Kudos to SC for his work on the pick'em. I really like how the results show the actual live score of a game plus the point spread. He had really done a good job with this.  #+

Thanks.  I need to make the box on the left side of the page show the scores too.  Maybe I can do that one of these days.

I didn't really spend any time this week thinking about the match ups.  I usually look at the schedules for both teams and see how they have done in their other games and who they played against.  This week I just went with my first impression.

Time once again to revisit the issue of whether this is all just dumb luck.

At this point there are roughly 29 players who have picked the games for each of the 9 weeks. If our picks were random, there would be roughly 14-15 winning records. There are actually 25 contestants who are picking better than even. A statistical test reveals that this result would occur by chance only 1 time on 10,000.

There doesn't seem to be spoor loser effect either, where the numbers are inflated by winners continuing to play as losers drop out. That core 29 has been in it from the start and all have stayed active.

So, it seems, we are the real deal.

Hate to break up your little party, ATU, but tossing two weeks of negative results skews your accounting. HTH

With all of the talk about the outcomes being random I wondered if I was wasting time by thinking about them too much.  I guess it helped me a little, although it is hard to say with just one week.  I won't chance it next week though.
