I just wanted to remind everyone that I am former champion and that I am right back at the top, AGAIN!

My math must be terrible, but how do I average 10th in the 3 weeks out of 4 I have participated in and yet am in ninth place? I am sure it can happen if people who finish ahead of me each time drop out, but aren't I really averaging around 8th to 9th and you just couldn't bear to say it.

He did. I won the previous year. I missed a couple of weeks last year and any hope of pulling a BYU71.

I'll point out that I missed a game pick as well, but I'm significantly higher than you.

Granted, I've been pretty good with my picks, but if I'd picked the UNI game (which I was picking fairly close to the actual score in most contests), I'd probably be #1.

Cool


I'm 7th after goose-egging against the Bruins.

So... who's calling for the shut-out against Utah State?
And who's calling for the 1-point win?

Represent. Those damn Lancers beat my Vikings last weekend. Thank goodness for the Valencia Boys Volleyball team. 2008 National Champions and 7 Div 1 commits including a 6'7 MB Skyler Seymour to BYU. Word.

I didn't predict on the Washington game as the thread was up after I left town and didn't have internet access in Seattle.
