Wait, was the last one Orgeron? I thought he quit?

he quit only because he wasn't offered the head coaching job after doing a very good job as interim

Losing to NW on the road is much better than losing to VT at home. What an idiot.

If your boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife/life partner/roomate/whatever tells you "Peanut Butter Vodka and Chocolate Milk taste just like a Reese's peanut butter cup"
FUCKING LEAVE THEM.
They're liars. They secretly must hate you, and you will be sick and not at all happy with the life choices you have made.

I wouldn't think peanut butter vodka would go well by itself, let alone with anything else.

On it's own, it's kinda okay. In Jello shooters its not bad at all. But with milk it took on some horrible, horrible weird ass flavor.
And I went down to the McDonalds. Did my thang for Buckeye nation. All night looooong.
(I actually went to Dennys, I wasn't the drunkest one there, which was awesome).
Now, I'll sober up enough to drink away my pain for the Browns tomorrow.

I still don't get it. I know I missed the Memphis game, but it was 0 points. I couldn't select anything special from the rest of the confidence points that I remembered.

By using the 1 point on another game after missing a game, you're effectively throwing away points, his suggestion (and the optimal strategy) is effectively "burning" the 1 point on the game you missed and thus minimizing your losses.
For your case this week in particular, you skipped using 9 points entirely and put 1 point on Mississippi State/Kentucky, throwing away 8 points (and even if Kentucky won, you wouldn't have lost anything).

Prodigy is correct.
More specifically, you went 4-4 on points 1-8. If you had just slid each one up a notch and used 2-9, that would have earned 4 additional points this week. Incidentally, a few weeks ago when you also missed a game, you didn't use CP 12. Doing 6-5 on 1-11, you could have earned 6 more points by moving up the scale one slot.
I stand by that opinion from before the game. I believe we should have matched up better against Ole Miss, and we should have won.
After the game, with the new data available to me, I can now alter my opinion:
WE'RE DOOMED! DOOOOOOMED! WE'RE GOING TO LOSE TO VANDY! FIRE SPAVITOL! TEAR DOWN THE RENOVATIONS! 5-7 HERE WE COME!

A lot of football left to be played, but ~if~ things played according to Hoyle, here's how it could end up.
1) Undefeated Big 10 (Ohio State/Michigan State)
2) Undefeated Big 12 (Baylor/TCU/Ok State)
3) Undefeated Clemson
and
4) Undefeated SEC LSU OR
4) 1 loss SEC Alabama / Florida / LSU
4) 1 loss Pac12 - Stanford / Utah
4) 1 loss Notre Dame
Unless there's some shakeup with the B10, B12, Clemson and SEC, it's quite possible that the Pac12 is on the outside looking in.
Utah's loss really hurts the conference and the marquee aspect of the conf championship.
I also wonder if a 1 loss B12 team would get in over Stanford as the top 4 teams are pretty damn good even if the bottom of the conference is weak.

You're right. I should. They have an easy path going forward until the conf championship and they did throttle Northwestern (which is Stanford's albatross)

WatchESPN continues to be out shit. The same 3-4 ads over and over again, and they still manage to load too many ads during ge breaks.
I hate seeing a team call time out before a big play, because I just know I'll be watching ESPN internal promos for the duration of the first play after the break.
Honestly, Ohio State would cream any other team in this league right now.
Unless you guys get healthy, and Michigan because rivalry games are rivalry games.

As pessimistic as I usually am about Bama, LSU is probably going to have a hard time in that game. Their passing game isn't good enough to keep Bama's defense from selling out to stop Fournette. Harris is pretty much going to need a career day to get their offense clicking and give them a chance.
Also not sure B12 is going to get a team in. TCU and Baylor both have what's probably the toughest stretch of their schedules coming up. TCU's defense will probably cost them a game, and Baylor will depend on how good their backup QB is. Guessing TCU loses to one of the Oklahoma teams but beats Baylor. Which would lead to:

That's good for the Irish until/if we beat them and then they're not ranked again. Hoping for Stanford and Temple to win out except for us.
