[SerArthurDayne]

So guess which idiot might be headed into BEAST territory for a temporary gig for a month or two?

So you are telling me you will be somewhere between California and the East Coast? You truly will go anywhere. I understand. Travel is no big deal. I used to go on business trips.

GAF Pick'em Week 9 Results and Rankings

Happy Halloween, everyone. I showed your picks to some of the kids that came by the house; they ran away screaming and crying. One kid loudly wailed "Go Gata!" as he ran to his mom and clutched her leg.

I got some angry comments from parents who said their kids weren't ready for the horror of your bad picks in the Pick'em and that "this never would have happened if they had went trick or treating with Yahoo."

Week 9 High Score: 16 by GoldenEye 007
Most Overall Picks: 11 by GoldenEye 007, outlawedprod
Most MoV Picks: 5 by GoldenEye 007

 

[SerArthurDayne]

Those are the kind of picks that will have people dropping like flies. Iceman consolidating his lead, but Hootie wins the week.

 

[timetokill]

Also, I added in the people that added their conference affiliations, and dropped players who haven't been playing the last few weeks entirely, which makes for a much tighter race for BEST GAF CONFERENCE

 

[Ganhyun]

29 -- 99 andycapps ( 13 / 10 ) [ 108 ]

Both UGA fans together in the pick standings.

 

[MightyHealthy]

I'm bringing down the Big East. Sorry guys.

 

[Garryk]

I think I should have 8 points. I picked Northwestern by 14 (won by 11) and Ohio State by 14 (won by 12).

I know it's one point, but it breaks the tie with Corndog Lover.

 

[andycapps]

Both UGA fans together in the pick standings.

Brothers. I'd be higher if I'd actually picked UGA this last week, but I think my pessimism paid off.

Also, changing my Washington California pick, since Keenan Allen might not play.

Washington vs. California by 4

Really, I'd like to say that if he plays, I pick Cal, if he doesn't I pick Washington, but dammit, why aren't they giving us confirmed injury information!

This is one of his better ones. They're usually pretty funny but not particularly elegant. He did a nice job this time though.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

I can't believe I had the high score last week across the board. I'll take it!

And I know there were some questions on if USCe would be trying to drop UCF or not from their schedule, but it appears SC put out their final schedule with the trip to Orlando still on it. That'll be interesting.

 

[Jhriad]

More of you need to choose Michigan State. We aren't good at being the undisputed favorite.

No, because you already admitted that you were only picking Duke out of team loyalty and that you fully expect to lose.

 

[timetokill]

I think I should have 8 points. I picked Northwestern by 14 (won by 11) and Ohio State by 14 (won by 12).

I know it's one point, but it breaks the tie with Corndog Lover.

Eep, my fault for the bad math.

I had Northwestern's win as by 9 instead of 11.

What this did is change a few scores, including Goldeneye's score being reduced by 1. He still wins the week, but by 1 less.

Scores updated above.

I'll be rooting for Duke. I'm hoping for a rematch with you guys in the ACC CG.
