Ahem... I know you may not have been too happy about the Griz only winning by 3 against a down EWU squad but they DID still win the game. Everyone should have 1 more point except Crusader and FU_Paladin who should have 1 less point.

Result: Montana 52 - EWU - 49

Don’t recall that the options for this game had a “by X.” Did it?

Looks like the sheet is showing those that picked Montana were wrong (red) & those that picked EWU were correct (green).

That said…FUBeAR is Red/Green colorblind…AND a Bear of very little brain.

Can you confirm FUBeAR’s observation OR call him a big dummy. He’s used to that.

….and also a slow typist. Thanks Bob!

Big upsets of week 5 per AGS pickers --- UC Davis over Idaho (only 6% picked correctly, 2 of 31), TN Tech over Gardner-Webb (6% correct, 2/31), McNeese over Weber State (10%, 3/31), and 4 of 31 (13%) each for Prairie View over Grambling, Maine over Albany, Houston Christian over Indiana State, and Brown over Harvard.

Largest disappointment of the week has to be Gardner Webb, favored by 7+ on Sagarin/Massey, picked by 29 of 31 AGS'ers, and loses by a whopping THIRTY-ONE points. Cripes. Albany and Sac State, you stink too for that matter...

Tarleton almost pulled off the coveted full sweep against AGS pickers, as 31 of 31 picked them to win, while they squeaked out a 3 point victory.

Throw out the big stinkers of Albany, G-W, Sac State, and Northern Colorado... the rest of my 9 losses this week were an average of 2.44 points margin of defeat, all 2-3 points. Is that a moral victory? Or am I just bad at this too? In the wise words of FUBeAR though (not a direct quote...), "Am I out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong." Get your crap together, teams. Also, Big Sky... you were a wild hot mess this week!

This entire weekend was a hot mess, my wife, who knows absolutely nothing about the FCS outside of the MVFC and some of the BSC, beat me with 15 wins this week, I got 11. Hell, she was gonna pick Lindenwood, she asked me who the hell they were and I kind of side eyed her and she picked against them. She was gonna pick them until I biased her. **** me

Believe it…or don’t…

FUBeAR picked TennTech to beat G-W over the demands of the Investors in Team FUBeAR.

FUBeAR foolishly acceded to their demands to pick Weber over McNeese, Albany over Maine, and ISUb over Houston Christian.

So…you are 100% correct! It’s the children who ARE wrong. The ones on the field AND the ones behind the scenes.

Is it possible to put a 32 year old up for adoption and get a 1.5 year marriage annulled? DAMN KIDS!

Oh…to POD’s comment, FUBeAR also overruled his investors and picked Lindenwood. Maybe Mrs. POD and FUBeAR should pair up … so to speak.

Maybe Mrs. POD and FUBeAR should pair up … so to speak.She is better at picking these games than I am, I had her pick most of the games last year and I think I finally beat her overall record in the last regular season week. If we listed the team mascots on the form, she would vote for her favorite mascot and probably get 75% correct.

After last week's stellar bottom feeder performance, I found this week's game even tougher to decide.

Good job and thanks for all the time and effort.

With your record last week, the trick going forward is to pick your full slate as normal, then go back and swap all of them to the other option! Foolproof way to flip the script on yourself.

If this week goes the same as last, I might try that.

Well hopefully I have a floor on dropping my worst week, and to think I stayed up late until the last west coast game ended hoping to get just one more right. Maybe I should just try sleeping through them this week with my fingers crossed.

McKinsey said something about us being Hosers and canceled our Engagement Contract (no refunds)… so we Zoomed our Investor Meeting tonight.
