Week 11 summary:
Sorry for the late posting... it's been a week...
Southern Illinois finished off an incredible 28-point comeback to take down the Penguins of Youngstown State, and SDSU handed UND just their 4th home loss since 2019, a year that they just happened to still be a member of the Big Sky. Who are those 4 teams? SDSU twice ('24 and '22), Sac State in the '23 playoffs, and NDSU in '21. 29 other teams attempted and lost in the Alerus center through that time. Oh, what The Hawks could have been without their 7-24 record on the road through that same time.... 87.9% home winning record, 22.6% away. Truly incredible splits.
Quite a bit of variety in the picks this past week too! Illinois State vs UNI tied for the most disparity of picks in a game this year (7 to 5), tying Illinois State at Southern Illinois in week 6 - also a 7-5 pick'em outcome. Illinois State won that matchup too... I guess you need to quit sleeping on the Redbirds, folks.
TrooperCoats with a major gamble on the F'ing Hawks to pull off a MAJOR upset in the shopping mall, which paid out no dividends and turned into a brutal week of picks, solidifying himself at the bottom of the full-time pickers. I would say it couldn't have happened to a better fan... but that would be abusing my position of power here in running this little challenge... so I won't be saying it! ;)

And by virtue of the 5-0 record from last week, yours truly makes a first appearance on the top of the leaderboard! I WON'T make a comment that this took so long to post because I was rigging the system or finding votes... that would get political, which is what I'm NOT doing! All picks have been certified in a public forum setting, time stamped, and sealed. The utmost security!
