Looks like the PAC 12 is odd man out after Stanford upset UDub.

Depending on how the BIG plays out, there could be 2 SEC teams in the playoff IF UGALY gets by AU tonight.

If Georgia wins out, beating a 12-0 Bama in the SECCG, there could still be 2 SEC teams in the Playoff.
However, I wouldn't expect to beat Bama.

ISU was a 6.5 dog.

Yeah, after Walt edited his list. When he first posted it, the line was 7. Here we go again...

What did you expect? Walt posts and cancels or alters whenever it suits him. Maybe I'll start changing my picks Sunday mornings. Crayon style.

[Walter]

Man, you guys are fast.
FTR, I usually update the lines just before posting. This week I hit send, immediately realized I hadn't updated, and fixed it. Couldn't have been more than 5-10 minutes of the original day old lines.

5-6-2, you know, not counting ohio u.

I guess an Ohio State elite who is used to favoritism in all things college football thinks he can get away with keeping a Wednesday night game that was only picked on by half the participants and taken off the board by Walt while not even bothering to pick on the legitimate game between Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech...............

et's bitter road to obsessive-ville, example # 413,985. lmao. lord knows, not making a pick or missing one of the games on the slate = elite.

It's easy to hate ...
when you go 3 and 8.

Did everyone have a bad week? Very few are posting how their week went.

It's Great To Be A 3&8er!

It's Heaven To Be 4&7er! - Just in case UF gets lucky this weekend.

Not sure...believe I had 7 wins, but waiting for the final lines, hoping Walt can bail me out and change a couple of them to be more to my liking.

Looks like 6-7-1 for me. But with Walt changing the lines after I print out my work sheet, who knows? I'll finish out this year but I'm done. The other board I'm in - what goes up, stays up.

Yeah, what goes up should stay up, but it's a pool with no money involved, so in the end really doesn't matter to me. That said, I don't think Walt will change the lines again.

1. The Wednesday night game shouldn't have been on the list. It was right to remove it from the list.

2. Even though it was only a few minutes on making the line change which was posted in error, Walt could have put a message on the Week 11 board and a stand alone thread on the main college football board. There would have been plenty of time for any affected player to respond. 

[drjensen]

I doubt anyone would have made a change with a 1/2 point change.

Understood, but in my case it had no effect, would have gone with ISU either way.

I took OK St for the same reason I took West Virginia last week. The #1 ISU QB was injured back about a month ago so they have been winning with defense. I figured, based on my recent years of good D/bad O at UF, that the time would come when the better teams would figure out a way to outscore ISU. That's exactly what happened the last 2 weeks and I have been rewarded accordingly in the picks. It was the difference between being above or below .500 this week and it added to a terrific week last week when I still couldn't beat out Coaltrain.

Going in, I thought ISU was going to win outright, so my pick wasn't going to change anyway.
