Pick'em: Week 5

[3xWVUenginEER]

There are no good Thursday night games IMO

K State @ WVU
(Tie breaker is TOTAL # of points. It came into play last week)

Friday
Stanford @ Washington
Toledo @ BYU

Saturday (10 P5 vs P5)
Miami @ GA Tech
Texas @ OK State
Wisky @ Michigan (will Harbaugh ever play a road game in 2016?)
Chapel Hill Cheaters @ FSU
Tennessee @ UGA
Purdue @ Maryland
Oklahoma @ TCU
Mizzoo @ LSU
Louisville @ Clemson
Zona @ UCLA


2 games inside the G5
UCF @ East Carolina
Navy @ Air Force-Round 1 of commander in chiefs trophy. This game probably decides the Commander In Chief Trophy cause Army HASNT beat Navy since like before iPhones.

Btw I was not putting the Marshall @ North Korea game on the slate. One school can't win and the other is North Korea. I'm not picking North Korea.

My picks

WVU (61)

Stanford
BYU

Miami-they look better.
OK State - this is Pickem
Meat Chicken (I was thinking Wisky at first but something says Harbaugh)
FSU
UGA (let down for the Vols. Don't trust Butch Jones either.)
Maryland
Oklahoma (I dont trust Stoops but I can't stand TCU)
Mizzoo (will not pick LSU, regardless of Les Myles being gone)
Clemson (their D is good up front and its in the other Death Valley
UCLA (as if I'd pick you know who)

East Carolina
Air Force

Good luck all

[GoWVU]

Wow, can't believe everyone has picked Stanford so far. This must be Washington's most important home game in about 15 years or so...think there's a good chance they break through the Oregon/Stanford stranglehold on the conference.

I thought the same thing.

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

Dang I suck at this!

Well since you only picked for weeks 3 & 4 you're not doing too bad. Averaging 8 wins, you could keep your coaching job. :wink:

That's awesome keeping track. I thought about that but didn't have time and I do this on a phone.

I'm glad I'm NOT in 1st place. Keeps me something to shoot at.

Everybody good luck and there's an extra 24 hrs for anybody else that wants to get in.

 

[xgunnx]

I'm in at #4. I am doing better then I thought I would be even though I missed a week.

Great job 3xWVU on doing the weekly pick 'em posts.

 

[AirForceer]

Great job 3xWVU on doing the weekly pick 'em posts.

I agree doing a great job! At first I thought na why play, but I look forward to it now. However, if I can't bring my score up, I'll have to find a plausible excuse to not play. You know, my hard drive fried, lost my lap top. Kind of like the dog ate my homework excuse.

I do have a suggestion instead of posting number of wins, post win percentage. Also, have a limited number of weeks one has participated to get your score.
This suggestion has nothing to do that it would make my score look better. [WVU]

Good ideas, even if it is just to improve your score. I'll see what I can do.

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

OK, AirForceer; I don't think this helped you. This represents total wins and total win percentage against all games played. %VS Played represents what you actually played vs. wins. So if you haven't played every week there is a difference between WIN% (total wins against total games) and % VS PLAYED ( didn't play every week).

MMB PICK ‘EM – 2016 – 9/30/16

3xWVUenginEER – WINS 30 – WIN% 63% - %VS PLAYED 63%

Xgunnx – WINS 19 – WIN% 40% - %VS PLAYED 53%

Wvex-pat – WINS 31 – WIN% 65% - % VS PLAYED 65%

WVUALLEN – WINS 15 – WIN% 31% - % VS PLAYED 39%

MichiganHerd – WINS 6 – WIN% 13% - % VS PLAYED 50%

AirForceer – WINS 16 – WIN% 33% - % VS PLAYED 59%

Torontoeers – WINS 26 – WIN% 54% - % VS PLAYED 68%

countryroads89 – WINS 10 – WIN% 21% - % VS PLAYED 67%

So Torontoeers & countryroads89 came out on top in % VS PLAYED by not playing every week. 3xWVU and I have played every week so far.

That's a good deal on the stats.

I like doing these Pick'ems cause to me college football is the best sport ever. I'm not into the pros. I'm not even into other college sports.

With college football I can watch 4 games and or parts of at least 6 to 7 at the tailgate and have a rooting interest or an interest based on experience being in that pert of the country or watching that school. You can't beat that for 1 day a week.

Let's do the whole season.

Clemson D made the plays in the end.

And in the insomnia game, UCLA makes my Sunday morning wake up good. Jim Mora Jr. still owns that A-hole at Zona.

There were at least 2 that went 10-5.

Unless I am missing it, WVUALLEN won the tiebreaker. That's 2 weeks in a row the tie breaker has decided it.

Next week has a lot to do to top this week in terms of finishes.

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

Looking forward to next week's Pickem. I'll throw the numbers together for a standing update later.

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

Here are the results after week 5. Both AirForcEER and xgunnx neglected to pick a full slate, so only counting wins countryroads89 had 10 correct picks this week. This represents total wins and total win percentage against all games played. %VS Played represents weeks you actually played vs. wins.

[countryroads89]

Thanks for compiling the stats! That's awfully nice.

Thanks for compiling the stats! That's awfully nice.

You're welcome! Same to all the players. I really look forward to this on the new week, with or without a WVU game attached. It is one of the few sane threads on the board.

Once the spreadsheet was set up plugging in the weekly numbers is a breeze.

I can't wait to see this week's picks rom 3x WVU .
