Andy I'm missing Army as one of my 3 star picks.

I figured since I didn't want to change anything I would have just kept them as my 3 star pick against the new opponent

Unfortunately, anyone who didn't indicate their replacement pick for the original Army/Marshall game had that pick removed. I wasn't able to assume that the Army pick would remain.

Perhaps a PM to those couple of posters affected would have been more effective. I figured my Army pick would hold up unless I requested to change it.

Oh, damn. That sux. Just seeing this now.

Just my two cents: LATech replaced Marshall at a similar #. Wouldn't it be reasonable to say:
*Army bettors keep Army? and
*Marshall bettors get LATech.

I'm not complaining. I know it was an unusual situation. Not trying to create a stir.

[ARCHIVADO98]

The most incredible come-from-behind scenario, which enables ARCHIVADO88 to take down the top prize:

Missouri -3.5 (line M-2.5)
Michigan +11.5 (line M+13.5)
Louisville -5.5 (line L-2.5)
Illinois +11.5 (line +10.0)
LSU -3.0 (line Baylor -3.5)

So getting to 13-2 (I'm not 8-2) is appriximately 66:1 shot.

And then I need one of the top guys to miss at least one game. Ideally, VT covers +4.5 (line +7.5 now).

About 0.5% chance.

Easy, right?

Agree, if this situation arises again we will definitely take that approach.

I hear ya, definitely a strange circumstance. Unfortunately, we'll have to stick with treating it as a voided pick since it was a different matchup.

Andy, thanks for the update. If it is not too difficult, is there any way we can see everyone's score?

Who stands to win this thing? Only a few plays remain.

[JAKEPEAVY21]

Who stands to win this thing? Only a few plays remain.

No idea, no score updates and I'm not motivated enough to tally up everything.

I'm sitting at 23 points and will hit 25 if Minnesota-4.5 covers today.

Does anyone have 25 or more points? I think there are at least a couple?

I end at 25 points and swept all 3 star plays. Lonnie egg will be the same if MInn covers 4.5 tonight. We would win the tiebreker over you Jake and Lonnie and me would tie. I think Chiefs83 is leading the pack currently. Has has 1 loss with 3 pending plays. not sure of any other contenders, see what happens.

Good Luck, Jake. Hope you win.

Look @my NFL contest. You have a good chance of Winning or at least finishing top 3.
...I'm convinced that the Chefs are going to make a monumental laydown this week (to knock out the Bengals and Dolphins).

[Easy-Rider 66]

I think If Chiefs83 get TX ST -9.5 he is the victor. If he does not then he needs both 1 star plays to win and he gets first. If he splits the 1 stars then I tie with him and possible Lonnie egg as well.

Chiefs is definitely in the driver's seat by the looks of it
