Spread Pickem Week 13 - ken d - 11-20-2022 07:30 PM
It all comes down to this. The final week of the regular season and we have two players tied at the top of the standings and a couple more lurking in striking distance. Twice so far this year we have seen bigger leads evaporate in one week, and after last week's carnage anything can happen.
The first game starts at noon on Friday, so shake off that turkey hangover and pick some winners. Home teams are shown in blue, favorites in the right column.
Friday
Baylor +6.5 @ #24 Texas
#19 Tulane +3.5 @ #21 Cincinnati
NC State +6.5 @ #18 UNC
Cal +9.5 vs #17 UCLA
Florida + 9.5 @ #16 Florida State
Saturday
Georgia Tech +35.5 @ #1 Georgia
South Carolina +14.5 @ #7 Clemson
#3 Michigan +8.5 @ #2 Ohio State
Auburn +22.5 @ #8 Alabama
#22 Oregon State +3.5 vs #10 Oregon
Iowa State +10.5 @ #4 TCU
Texas A&M +7.5 vs #6 LSU
#13 Notre Dame +5.5 @ #5 USC
Vanderbilt +15.5 vs #9 Tennessee
Washington State +2.5 vs #12 Washington
Good luck to all. Let's prove last week was a fluke.

A friendly reminder - per contest rules, you must play the final week in order to be eligible to win the season title. You may not opt to sit out the final week even if you have not missed any weeks yet this year (the "Ted Williams Rule").

RE: Spread Pickem Week 13 - ken d - 11-25-2022 07:18 PM
It looked like NC State had this one locked up, with only schmolik picking them to cover. Now it could come down to a coin toss. If Carolina loses the toss, they could possibly outscore State in the OT by 7 points against a 6.5 point spread. If they win the toss and score a TD after holding State scoreless, they don't get to try the point and would fail to cover.
RE: Spread Pickem Week 13 - ken d - 11-25-2022 07:25 PM
And now it looks like it would need to go to a third OT for Carolina to cover the spread.
Wrong. A third OT wouldn't have done it as they alternate two point tries. As I type this, it's moot. State wins the game.
RE: Spread Pickem Week 13 - ken d - 11-25-2022 07:38 PM
This puts schmolik in the driver's seat for the season title. For Skyhawk to beat him outright, he would have to correctly pick all four games tomorrow where they picked different teams. Skyhawk's picks are Georgia -35.5, Alabama -22.5, Oregon -3.5 and Tennessee -15.5.
Edited to show Skyhawk picked Georgia.

I have Georgia Tech, Skyhawk has Georgia.
Skyhawk needs all four favorites to cover. I need one underdog to cover.

Correct. I misspoke. And Skyhawk could still tie if 3 of the four favorites cover.

RE: Spread Pickem Week 13 - ken d - 11-26-2022 07:36 AM
If things tend to even out in the end, you may be in better position than you think. Generally, favorites cover the spread about half the time. Last week, they only did 40% of the time (six out of fifteen), and so far this week we stand at 20% (one out of five).
So it would seem like the favorites are due, and you picked a lot of favorites.
Collectively, the last three games on the Pickem slate yesterday did not go well for us. We picked correctly less than 10% of the time. Let's hope we do better today.

Well I don't want to hear that:) I want dogs, dogs, and more dogs (well other than Georgia Bulldogs that is!) I'll be cheering for Auburn more than JRSec will be. I'll be cheering for Vanderbilt more than Bill Dazzle will be. I'll be cheering for Georgia Tech more than Georgia Tech Swagger will be. And I'll be cheering for Oregon State more than ... does Oregon State have any fans here ... or anywhere outside of Corvallis?

You got your wishes, schmolik. Now all that remains is whether you or JR will win the weekly contest. Congratulations.
