Congratulations to Shannon Panther for winning this week with 9 points. Shannon was Wyoming away from a perfect 10!

Five pickers got 8 points and will each get a second place prize of 1 rec point each.

I think this week's games were just too easy (or you've become too smart). The average score this week was over 7, the highest for the season. Everyone got at least 5 and only one person got 5 and it's notable that it is SouthEastAlaska and I'm only picking on SouthEastAlaska because I'm used to SouthEastAlaska doing well (SouthEastAlaska won last season's contest).

Updated Season Standings (Must have played 2 weeks):

We have an AAC game and a MWC game featured (candidates for that NY6 slot?) Unfortunately for Shannon Panther, WYOMING!

No noon games? Got to be the worst group of noon games I've seen in years. Georgia-Vanderbilt? Indiana-Michigan? Arkansas-Alabama? Syracuse-Florida State after North Carolina stomped all over them?

Best Pick of the Week: Tie: Louisville and Wyoming: 3 each

Worst Pick of the Week: Maryland: 1 (Understandable though but of course you know I'm going to pick every game Maryland is going to be a big underdog the rest of the season now:) Don't worry, I'll pick on the rest of you if I get the chance!

So basically just the games against Penn State and Michigan, Terps in both lol
Maryland still has firm grasp of it's goals this year. There are things to work on, but I couldn't feel better after a 20 point loss. The key is how we respond next week against Illinois. Maryland hits 8 wins before the bowl game and I'm popping a few bottles of Champagne. I'm nothing but hyped for where Maryland football is currently and whats being built

I see Maryland going 9-3. Nebraska will be the hardest one to win, but I think Maryland has the advantage against Matt Rhule and his squad. Nebraska's got a long way to go if they ever want to get back to where they were.

Quote:RANKED vs. RANKED

No. 8 Oregon at No. 7 Washington. The 103rd meeting between the Ducks and Huskies will be the first top-10 matchup.

No. 10 USC at No. 21 Notre Dame. For the first time since 2005-06, the Trojans and Fighting Irish are playing with both teams ranked in consecutive seasons.

No. 25 Miami at No. 12 North Carolina. Only the second meeting in which both teams are ranked.

No. 18 UCLA at No. 15 Oregon State. For the first time since 2001, both teams are ranked, and it’s the second straight home game for the Beavers hosting a ranked opponent.

You already have all of these but the last one.

Plus, I think it'd be fun to follow the PAC-2 to the end of the season, with the realignment mud seemingly splashed all over them...
