***2024-25 Pick'Em Week 7***

[dukedevilz]

Congrats to @mikeinknoxville on an impressive 17 point week! 12 of the 18 posters had 5 points or less - Mike is putting a gap on us now with a double-digit lead! Those Mountain West conference games were rough for most of us.

Games won't be getting any easier - but, hopefully some of us will have better luck this week. And we'll also have our first double-points week sometime in January.

Utah State made most of us look bad this past week. Impressive win for them. Utah State is 12-1 with road wins against SDSU and Saint Mary's - and a neutral court win over Iowa. Wild that Jerrod Calhoun is their 4th head coach in the past 5 seasons. Somehow that program finds a way to keep on winning despite major continuity issues. Prior 3 coaches are now at Washington, VCU, and Utah.

I looked at my score and had to go check because I thought there was no way Utah St. won that game. What a terrible week for almost everyone.

I think this is the worst I've ever done, both weekly and season wise. I got zero points and actually picked all 6 games. FML

I thought San Diego State at home was a fairly safe 6-point pick. Utah State has definitely exceeded my expectations this year.

I struggled with what games to include this past week; there was serious slim-pickings. Glad we got to have a couple of close MWC games. I'll take that over UC Riverside / St. Thomas (that was seriously my next option).

Ole Mike…..

Congrats on Mikel Brown Jr. Gonna be good. Him vs Acaden Lewis will be fun to watch.

 

[mikeinknoxville]

Ole Mike…..

Nice win. Cant trust the 'heels especially on the road against a good team.

 

[kyjeff1]

Yeah, the way UNC has been playing, I thought taking UL was easy money. The Cards have been playing well.
Seems like they figured out how to overcome being short handed.

I would much rather have Louisville win than me earn 21 points in the weekly Pick'Em. Great win for Louisville. If Kasean Pryor wasn't out for the season, I would really like this Louisville team as a fringe top 25 team.

Good chance Louisville and UNC are both bubble teams this year.

Winning on the road is hard. Historically, I believe the home team wins around two out of every three games. Not a bad loss for UNC. It will likely end as a Quad 1 game. Unfortunately for them, they don't have too many Q1 games left in ACC play.

 

[Kevin Bryan]

Great win for Louisville.

UNC is worse than DePaul. Amirite @WeAreDePaul?
