lol But, really there were like three-four games that could have gone either way. We got lucky with the other two games, and if FSU or LSU choked.

This is the message I get when I try to rejoin,

If this error occurs when you are creating a group, the lock time has passed and you cannot create a group at this time."

Too late to have any chance to be competitive. You can't miss a week in this game and have any chance of winning.

If you entered picks for Week 1 but didn't join the GBB league, your points should transfer over once you join.

Georgia always seems to blow one game. I had a neighbor who went to Georgia - he is a Coast Guard helicopter pilot. Every Saturday he would have his 8 foot, blow-up Georgia Bulldog on his front lawn. I pulled for him every year, but Georgia would always manage to lose one or two important games. I'm still cheering for them.

Well done Lilo. And Yogi...you get the wooden spoon, but as always a spirited fight.
I missed 3 weeks, amassed 383 pts; for 11 weeks I averaged almost 35 pts per week, times 3 weeks missed = 105 + 383 = 488....I would have come in 4th..not bad.

Re: 2014 College Football Pick'em (Saturdays) - 12/01/14 04:38 AM
Ugh, I was really close to the top for a good couple of weeks. Then for three straight weeks my higher picked teams just sucked.
At least I finished 3rd, which I believe is the highest for me. So that is good at least.

Re: 2014 College Football Pick'em (Saturdays) - 12/01/14 07:36 AM
Well done Lilo...and MC, LL got the wooden spoon this year (even if he did stop playing halfway through)
2nd bottom is a massive improvement for me and just shows that I will go on to win this next year, especially if Santy brings me that book about college team uniforms and nicknames
