NCAA Football Picks Contest #5

Last week was our most accurate week so far. Let's see if we can't get closer to perfection in week 5!

Record your picks in the same order that they appear to facilitate tabulation.

Make sure to consider the point spreads in making your picks.

The only prize is that you may include, if you wish, in your signature for the next week: I won valeogut's NCAA Football Challenge!


Texas +8 @ Oklahoma -8

Wisconsin +3 @ Ohio State -3

Minnesota +4 @ Michigan -4

Illinois +8 @ Michigan State -8

Stanford +5 @ Notre Dame -5

LSU +4 @ Florida -4

California +8 @ USC -8

Purdue -11 @ Penn State +11

Virginia Tech -5 @ Wake Forest +5

Tennessee +12 @ Georgia -12

Tie breaker: Total number of points scored in the Tennessee-Georgia game.

Good luck!

ForgedRbest, you're really sticking with LSU again after they let you down last week?

I have too, can't root for the other teams against my own school.

I know what you mean. I have my doubts about Ohio State and Notre Dame this week too, but I just couldn't make myself pick against them. That's not smart picking, my friend.

I really haven't been, but that might be a good idea, Keith. That way we could see who had the most correct picks over the course of the season. Of course, that would kind of put those who join in later at a disadvantage. Of course, if they pick the way you do, they could make up ground pretty fast!

Only one day left to make your picks for Saturday!

Watch out Wolverines; those Golden Golphers are coming to town!

And the winner is...

Victory repeats as the winner of valeogut's NCAA Football Challenge for the second straight week, beating out valeogut himself on the tiebreaker. Six correct picks is all it took this week, but we all know how unpredictable college ball can be, don't we? I mean, who would have figured Tennessee to actually win that game or Penn State to hang that tough with Purdue?

Congratulations to our repeat winner--victory! He can continue to display the "I won valeogut's NCAA Football Challenge" signature tag for another week!

Thanks to all those who played this week. At Keith's suggestion, I'll be compiling totals of correct picks for the season so far and posting them sometime this week, perhaps giving only the top five or so to avoid embarassing anyone.
