Can we dare contacting UH and TCU to find out how much it would cost them to travel to Houston and to Fort Worth? It would be ridiculous if they were to fly to those cities in the same state. It does make sense to stay where they are to simply save cost on traveling.

Please break down your score for the tie breaker when send me your picks.


I am looking for something like 41-21

not total score = 62 points.


When going through tie breaking procedures I will look four factors (if need be)

1. who picked the winning team
2. who picked the winning team's score correct
3. who picked the losing team's score correct
4. who picked the correct total points or closest

this way there will be no tie (last year my pool went to a coin flip so I am trying to avoid this)

If FSU's defense plays like they did against Va tech then Penn St doesnt stand a chance. They wont be able to keep up with the Noles speed

I am for sure adding three people tommorow but as a result of being late they are all going to have the UTEP vs Toledo game as a loss (two out of three picked UTEP anyway) If anyone else wants to play you will start out at 1-1.

If you would like to join please PM me by noon tommorow (Thursday, Dec. 22)
