    why include hyper-dreck matchups? why no ND VT? utah furd? I say this every year but you really should be using something like Yahoo to just do this programmatically, instead of manually taking hours

    If you think you can do a better job than FMB running the pick 'em, then maybe step up to the plate next year. We're lucky FMB runs the pick 'em at all.
    Don't care that much just trying to help the dude out

    Really? It certainly sounds like you care.

    Do not feel good about A&M, but I know I can't count on all the road favorites winning.

    I try not to repeat teams too much, except for Washington and maybe Oregon and WSU, since we have fans of those teams on here. The dreck is just me being weird, but I try not to do it too much. I did Utah and Furd last week. But...I will take all of the input into consideration. Bill is a man of the people, after all.

    I have it done. It's a home. I'll either poast late tonight (like 11 MST) or tomorrow. My life sucks and I'm a workaholic.

    I support FMB and 'dreck' picks, makes it more challenging.

    News and notes:

    Still need to look into PGOS and AZDuck scores, but I believe @PostGameOrangeSlices should be 23-12 overall. I miss shit so I might have missed @AZDuck a week, but I am 99% sure he missed at least a week. Plus he's in the gulag, so what's he going to do? Bwahahaha

    I am still doing overalls. I sort of have some free time today, so hopefully they are done today, but I don't want to promise it and have people get mad.

    For those who care....we have gradually sunk down to 37 participants (this week). It's good in a way for me (less work), but on the other hand, high numbers gives a little validation to my barren life and soul. Either way, it's interesting.

    As for the lame games, i.e. Buffalo at Central Michigan or whatever Mac or MW trash I do occasionally, I did that last year. It's annoying to maybe 10-20%, but I'm a quirky, creative, stable, genius, and I do stuff like that. I also don't like to repeat the same teams too much, except for Northwest ones. At the same time, I'm not going to pass up many match ups with two top 25 teams.

    @AZDuck

    Sorry bro. You did all the first four weeks. I'm assuming you did them in time? I went through it quickly, so it's going to need to be double checked later. I'll update it in the overalls. But with the banhammer, you will be missing a couple of weeks here no matter what. So you'll still be eligible, but it'll be hard to crack the top 10. I'm still working on the overalls. It's hard.
