Re: 2014-2015: NCAA Weekly Pick'em
A fairly strong week, as we went a collective 61.74% with our predictions. SweeneyHawksHockey led the way with an impressive 13-2-0 prediction record this week (tying the best % of the season). The answer to the bonus question was 128 shots on goal by NCHC home teams on Saturday. Pump It Up got it exactly correct, while several others earned points with their predictions. Not surprisingly, SweeneyHawksHockey and Pump It Up led the way in points this week.

Overall, NU_Husky and Pump It Up continue their neck and neck battle for the top spot...currently tied (although NU_Husky wins the tiebreaker at the moment with the better prediction record). Our overall pick % also went up this week to 58.69%.
I will have the Week 14 games up later this evening (or perhaps early tomorrow morning). Once again, a special thank you to those who help me in choosing what games to select each week. It makes running this significantly easier. Also, I may need some extra help from those individuals for Week 19 (February 27-28 games). I will be taking the bar on Tuesday/Wednesday February 24/25, so I will unlikely be posting in this thread that week. As a result, if those who help me could include their Week 19 games when they send their Week 18 games that will be greatly appreciated. I will be posting both Week 18 and Week 19 at the same time. I am hoping to have the results from both weeks posted the week following Week 19 games, but it is possible there may be a delay.
