A week of no surprises on the field showed itself on the picks. Krizzou eeked by Cabbottmf with a tie breaker this week, but is still behind him in the overall standings. Meanwhile, the Yeti improves on his picking but is still licking his wounds from previous weeks. Let’s hope that Krizzou can bounce back better than Mizzou did against Texas last week. Talk about drunken fury. At any rate, we are getting down to biz-ness and winding down to the last half of season. There’s still time to suggest what the loser, which clearly looks like the Purple Yeti, will do at the Championship game humiliation wise. Send those thoughts in. Here are the picks:
Rank | Pick Set Name | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | Total |
1 | Cabbottmtf | 17 | 11 | 9 | 13 | 8 | 11 | 10 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 89 |
2 | krizzou | 16 | 12 | 8 | 11 | 9 | 10 | 6 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 82 |
3 | Purple Yeti | 14 | 10 | 8 | 10 | 4 | 6 | 6 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 65 |
Another standing update comes from the first release of the BCS standings. I haven’t decided yet whether or not to keep the BCS update with the Pick It standings post or not. Maybe if I have time, I can do both. Until then, we can bask in the glory that 6 of the Big 12 teams are in the top 25 of the BCS, with 4 of them in the top 8. Here’s the top 10:
- Texas
- Alabama
- Penn State
- Oklahoma
- USC
- Oklahoma State
- Georgia
- Texas Tech
- Ohio State
- Florida
As you can see, Texas is king as the whuppin’ they stuck to Mizzou pretty much shut up any detractors. It’s gonna be interesting to see what happens when all of the Big 12 South teams beat up on each other for the rest of the season. Will they all still be in the top 10 of the BCS? Maybe. If one of the undefeateds stay undefeated, it’s gaurunteed that they’ll be in the title game, with another team going to a BCS game. Here we thought the North was king coming into this year.
