correction, Tribemates

Hey, I can respect your lineage. Christ also came from the tribe of Judah. A superior tribe from the beginning. Jacob would be mostly proud.

We kicked Jesus out of the tribe the second he started exhibiting manual labor tendencies.

Not the same Kansas team that won at Rupp a few days back.

 

[WeAreDePaul]

That cash register you’re hearing is the sound of me picking up points on just about everyone because of Virginia.

 

[rockycard]

Not the same Kansas team that won at Rupp a few days back.

Yeah it is, just tougher competition today.

 

[mikeinknoxville]

Yeah it is, just tougher competition today.

Whether its BB or FB Iowa State is tough at home. Now if I can just remember that!

 

[jhmossy]

That cash register you’re hearing is the sound of me picking up points on just about everyone because of Virginia.

I’m still laughing that their fans rushed the court despite being a favorite lol

 

[WeAreDePaul]

I’m still laughing that their fans rushed the court despite being a favorite lol

They were doing that for me.

 

[Necessary Roughness]

Good chance I go Ofer this week. Yikes.

 

[mikeinknoxville]

Good job @dukedevilz
Tough week for most of us

 

[IUfanBorden]

the best part is the edit where you also explained your logic for one of your picks.

That wasn't the edit....Not sure what it was, TBH----although it wasn't explaining the Kansas win.

 

[IUfanBorden]

hey bro, I'm gonna help you out a bit this week. To give you an edge I'm going to make your first pick for you so you are at least started down the right path. So here you go...

6 - Virginia TECH

Should have listened....Wouldn't have put them at 6 though, fo sure....But still----good call.

 

[dukedevilz]

Virginia Tech is healthy again. That 7-game losing streak was rough. They've got a long ways to go to be in consideration for an at-large. But talent wise, they're good enough to beat anyone in the ACC. They're good enough to win the ACC Tournament. They'll be an interesting to follow down the stretch of the season.

 

[dukedevilz]

Congrats to @lurkeraspect84 on his 18-point week. The ESPN predictive model finally came through for him. Scores varied widely this week, which is what I like to see! @WeAreDePaul retains the lead for another week.

One thing that I thought was crazy is @KisteK and @duckboy33 both had 3 correct picks this week: SMC, Duke, and Iowa State. But, KisteK only got 6 points out of it (3-2-1), while duckboy got 15 (6-5-4). Those point values we assign each team are huge! 9-point swing right there.

Was debating on which UConn game to use. Tuesday against Marquette (a red-hot team), or Saturday against Creighton. I kind of like the Tuesday game more, but I do think it's better to allow more time for everyone to get their picks in.

Interesting follow for sure but they're also winless in true road games so far this season.

 

[jhmossy]

5 points last week...ouch. Good thing it's worth nothing. I think @WeAreDePaul forgets that

6: Creighton

That's kind of wild, actually.

They've got road games coming up against GT, ND, and Louisville. Would think they could steal at least 1 of those games lol.
