Week 9 (Dec 3 - 4, 2010)
Fr-Sa ==> UAH @ Cornell (2): Big Red SWEEP. I would love to be wrong; Cornell is down a bit this year, but a UAH team that has struggled this much going into Lynah is a big underdog.
Fr-Sa ==> UNO @ BSU (2): Mavericks SWEEP. I considered a split but Blais seems to be working his magic again.
Fr-Sa ==> UConn @ NU (2): Purple Eagles SWEEP.
Fr-Sa ==> Bentley @ RMU (2): Colonials SWEEP. Weird factoid of the day: Derek Schooley follows me on Twitter.
Fr-Sa ==> HC @ AFA (2): Falcons SWEEP.

Re: "Independent" Pick'em - Gotta have something to do...

Oops! Looks like I missed one game on this week's schedule...

Colgate visits Army on Saturday. Since most people have already made their picks for the week I'm inclined to let this one slide unless everyone wants to add it??? You tell me...

Call it a bonus game, one I expect the Cadets to win.

If we are going to count it, I will take Army over Colgate.

Count it as normal. For most of us it won't hurt if we miss picking one game since we're allowed a 25% miss rate. Looking at the numbers it won't cost anyone on the cusp a shot at the "bragging" rights. Also since it's a Saturday Game, allow for those who missed it earlier in the week to continue picking for that ONE game until the puck drops on Saturday.

Currently we need Colgate @ Army picks from:

BSUBeaver94
21st Century Schizoid Man
Laker Dude
5hole
BigBlue2Ba
true2BSU

And we need picks in general from:

Douglas
RMUColonials
Upper Deck

BTW I'm going with <B>Army</B> over Colgate.

Per their choices on the AH Pick 'em thread:
5hole = Army
21st Century Schizoid Man = Colgate
This assumes they would use the same picks here.

Right now only 4 people out of 14 players have picked the Colgate/Army game. If no more show up I'll let their picks stand for their score and bragging rights but won't count the game in the 75% required for the champion. Right now one person is THAT close to the 75%...
