Let's see if we can do better than last week. I have decided to tweak the rules just a bit more. So far, during the season race, we have not needed to resort to a tie breaker. Frankly, I was always uneasy about breaking a tie using one of the games we had already picked. And, in past years, we didn't have weekly tie breakers at all - we just had multiple winners. So, for the rest of the season, that's what we'll do. We will only have a tiebreaker for the season championship, and it will be a game played after the regular season is over, TBD later.
This week's slate is:
Virginia @Boise State
Army @Tulane
NC State @Florida State
Arkansas @Texas A&M
Pitt @Georgia Tech
Old Dominion @Virginia Tech
Central Florida @Maryland
Wake Forest @Appalachian State
Duke @North Carolina
Boston College @Clemson
Toledo @Miami
Cincinnati @Navy
Syracuse @LSU
Mississippi State @Georgia
Notre Dame @Michigan State
In the event one of these games is cancelled, it will be replaced by Texas Tech @Houston. If there is a second cancellation, we will substitute Sunday's game, East Carolina @UConn.
If there are more than two cancellations, everyone will get credit for a correct pick on the third and additional cancellations. In that case, we will welcome a thread (in the Spin Room) on the effects of global warming on college football.
Good luck, everyone.
