I've never done this before so I don't know how it works. hehe

But I love college ball so I'm gonna give it a try.

[L3thal Veteran]

Well Eddie, you basically choose who will win a number of games Yahoo designates using their prediction system.

For example: 27.5 Florida - E. Tennessee

What that means is that Florida is favorite by 27.5 points, so if you pick Florida and they win by 20 points, you got the pick wrong.

So that means if I pick Florida they have to win by 27.5 points (28) for me to have picked right?

[BroChaos Veteran]

that is correct eddie, and it is VERY hard. last year i got like 50% right every week. just couldn't get past that barrier.

[L3thal Veteran]

I am in the same boat as BroChaos. Some games seem easy to pick a winner, but when the game is being played, the underdog puts on one hell of a fight.

I finished on the bottom 1/4 last year :x

[stncttr908 Veteran]

I'm in!

[mattmatik]

I'm in also. Thanks, Bro.

And yeah, NCAA Pick Em is hard. The past 3 years I was fortunate enough to know to NEVER pick Florida to cover, under Zook they probably covered 6 times in 3 years.

[Gfunk4life]

i didnt know it was like 27.5 thing oh sh*t im going to do bad

[jesuspz]

I live in Mexico but I love football, so I will try it.

I see a MIchigan fan in this thread. I have to join, for every Michigan fan their has to be a Buckeye fan there to keep them in check. :D :woot: :crazy:

[BroChaos Veteran]

gah, that was the 2001 game....i was there....i hate you....

all i gotta say is 57-38-6 :)

[hulkachopblocker]

They showed a stat I think during 100th meeting up in Ann Arbor about the teams head to head record since 1950. Im probly screwing up these numbers but it was like 24-24-5. Anyway just a little friendly ribbing from a Buckeye fan.

[BroChaos Veteran]

haha, yea yea, i know. last 50 years have been pretty equal. getting off topic here, but we got nothing else to talk about until the season starts. it's hands down the greatest rivalry in the history of all sporting events. do you know briangw? he posts here pretty frequently (well used to..i think he's busy now) but he's currently the buckeye that keeps me in check. i don't need 2 of you now ;)

[L3thal Veteran]

I don't like neither of your teams, but Michigan is the less of two evils. I can't wait until Nebraska gets back on the radar to teach you fools a lesson :p
