Changing my Northern Illinois pick to Marshall.
Changing my Louisville pick to Georgia.
Changing my Maryland pick to Stanford.
Changing my Tennessee pick to Iowa.

Anyone who is not in yet can still play. You just lose all games on that day back to December 20. If you've already posted, no changes are allowed after right now.

SteelyDanMan and CarMaxsonma seem to be competing for the lifetime SoWal " annuity income-4-Life" riches, so its time to unleash " the Pythagorean theorem" of NCAACFB betting in hopes of justifying an invitation to next years WINNER TAKES THE CAKE college football forum

The formula is simple, but not for the simple minded:

P = student population
Q = school distance from the equator, or Ecuador, whichever is less
R = How many undergrads take 5 ( or more) years to graduate, instead of 4
S = The number of Student athletes participating in any-and- all NCAA - sanctioned sports
T= Total student population
U = Performance against the Over/Under AGAINST-THE -SPREAD RECORD or D1 Football games N.O.T. involving a mascot of American Indian, Hispanic, Native Alaskan, Animal or 'SOUTHERN ALABAMA' origin...
V= Victories against teams having a winning record since 1922
W = Wins
X = ' the x-factor', as explained in a Utube video, if any, relative to the team playing
Y = "Yowzah" moments appearing on FOXNews nightly sports channel
Z = "Zat wun't me sayd they'd cover" the spread, uttered more than once a game

The formula thus becomes simple:

PICK = (W+4)/(ZxPxR-Q) to the Sth power, + T , divided by (U+V)...The sum for which is then subtracted from (X+Y)

THE BIGGER THE NEGATIVE NUMBER, THE GREATER THE CHANCE THE TEAM WILL WIN!!

Using THE "Scientific method", HOW EZ WAS THAT?

Is that the BCS formula?

So basically due to us picking:
Oregon (13) @ Florida St (3)
Alabama (12) @ Ohio St (3),
as a group we're thinking Oregon vs Alabama for the championship game.

Apparently Colorado State barely showed up in their bowl game.

 

[m1a1mg]

Oops. Alabama.

Thanks BGSU for missing a crucial field goal. Now South Alabama is ahead with 1:20 to go in the bowl game. Fixing to cause me a 3rd miss.
