Sorry I was not able to do the poll last week. Between work, travel and celebrating my 57th birthday I just didn't have the time. There weren't many great match-ups last week so I guess I picked a good week for our bye.
The previous week was our best in terms of success. Only one of us had a sub .500 record and four of us were 4-1. Here are the updated standings with the previous week score in parenthesis...
Bevo 16-9 (4-1)
AJ 15-10 (4-1)
Blue Hen 13-12 (2-3)
Herd Fan 12-13 (3-2)
Hero 12-13 (3-2)
Doc 11-14 (4-1)
CPA 11-14 (4-1)
Evil Vodka 11-14 (3-2)
So five games separate the top from the bottom but just like last year, Bevo is setting the pace. I may need to start adding games featuring Texas, Louisville and Kentucky and hopefully he'll bet with his heart to make things a little closer. At the same time, there are 6 weeks left to the regular season so it's still anybody's game...here are the games for this week....some intriguing match-ups; UNC is favored at Pittsburgh and the Panthers are ranked, Clemson is +10.5 at NC State - a perfect situation for them to 'Clemson' a game, TSUN is a big road favorite in the annual battle for the Little Brown Jug (won last year by the Gophers in a game that probably sealed Brady Hoke's fate) and undefeated Temple is hosting the biggest game in their history with Notre Dame coming to Philly. And, of course, how could I leave out the bsttle for supremacy in Florida - FIU @ FAU.....
