2022-23 Pick'Em, Final Week! (Double-Points!!!)
- Thread starter dukedevilz
- Start date
lol I'm sure you're relieved that you didn't have Texas at 6.
Probably a silly idea but is there a way we could maybe have 2 alt games for those who were late?
Is that too much to keep up with?
that's stupid. someone (COUGH COUGH @MGC_07 ) might decide to skip the first two games if they are hard to decide and just wait for the alt games to be released.
If it makes you feel any better, I've actually played every week and I'm only 13 points ahead of you. You could probably miss a few more weeks and catch my dumbass.
You should probably take another week off. Don't want your cooties.
We should change the rules this year to golf's scoring system where lowest score wins.
No, but we need to implement handicaps. 🤣
I sucked balls this week. So bad i cheered for St Mary’s all game long and was happy when they won only to look later and realize I picked SD State.
Not much action this week till you get to Saturday with finals and winter break. Rest of the month is usually pretty barren for CBB. On that note I'm going to attempt to predict the games @dukedevilz will select for us this week..
Creighton @ Marquette
Alabama vs Gonzaga (Birmingham Alabama)
Houston @ Virginia
DePaul @ Northwestern
UNC vs Ohio State (NYC)
UCLA vs Kentucky (NYC)
Just missed the cut:
Western Kentuycky @ Louisville
Tennesseee @ Arizona
UCLA @ Maryland
Creighton @ Marquette
Alabama vs Gonzaga (Birmingham Alabama)
Houston @ Virginia
DePaul @ Northwestern
UNC vs Ohio State (NYC)
UCLA vs Kentucky (NYC)

I'm telling ya, it's a tough game to predict and will force all these front runner fans to have to take a look at a couple teams they don't even know exist.
Congrats to @rockycard on winning Week 5. He put 4+ points on everyone. @IUfanBorden has taken sole command of the leaderboard.
I was thinking about using the Creighton/Marquette matchup, but Creighton has gone cold real quickly. And I heard Kalkbrenner might have mono. That doesn't appear to be a 50-50 matchup, IMO... So, I'm going to go with 2 UCLA games. If you pick UCLA, please clarify which team you have them beating.

I mean, yeah. It would be a tough game to predict. Louisiana Tech at UTEP would also be tough to predict. But, on the national level, they're insignificant.

No Indiana-KU? Is it because we all know KU's going to beat them down?
Hah, possibly.
That could be a fun matchup. But, I see it more like a 70-30 game, instead of a toss-up. Borden might pick IU, but not sure anyone else would. My goal in the matchups is to pick nationally relevant games which are relatively close to being 50-50 games. KU should have a semi-decent advantage at home.
At this point I might as well shoot for last place. I've had 3 weeks under 10 points lmao.
