    As some of you may have noticed, I did not make a pick in the Independence Bowl game. That was a test on my part to make sure the system was working properly.;)

    Umm... Just so you know, ALL of my picks so far have been a test, and Ive found obvious tampering is occurring.
    It's not me sucking this badly it's some sort of Disney algorithm!

    Thanks Terry. Merry Christmas to you, too.
    Lot of games left. Looks like the contest added the WF/ Rutgers to the list so those in the pool will need to pick a winner in that game.

    So I can hardly believe it, 61% have picked Rutgers. The team that hasn't been practicing since their last game while WF has had the full bowl practice schedule.

    I think if you picked the Aggies your pick went automatically to Rutgers and you have to change it. I just went to look and I had picked the Aggies and my pick was Rutgers now. I changed it to Wake Forest which is probably the kiss of death this year.

    Thanks, Bill. Now I know to pick Rutgers. :D Just kidding of course. So far this bowl season, no matter what method I use, I lose. Actually, I'm sticking with WF, my original pick. Maybe the kiss of death (vs. A&M) will turn into a victory smooch. :D

    I usually fade the MAC schools but Anne is a Broncos grad who majored in inebriation.
