Welcome to Week 5 of the College Football Season and Week 5 of the Critically Acclaimed 2016 ACCbbs Football Pick'em.

Congratulations to Indytarheel who finished 13-2 for Week 4 and found his/her way out of last place.

There was alot of upheaval in the standings from Week 4 where we saw Swag and ken d fall from 1st place. samandrea took over the top spot following a 12-3 mark, followed by batonrougeescapee, and defending champion, Collegecard.

This week's slate promises to be as compelling and competitive as last week's, and I suspect there will be no games where everyone picks the same team -- as was the case where we all missed Duke.

We have Thursday night action in the form of Stanford @ Washington.

Then we have a great slate of Saturday games, starting with Miami @ Georgia Tech and ending with the prime time bout -- Louisville @ Clemson.

Good luck to everyone.

Week 5 is OPEN for pickin' business.

I'm kinda surprised that everyone, so far, is picking Miami to win at Georgia Tech...

Then again, the Canes had a week off to prep.

Fun fact: UNC and Duke both, AGAIN, have bye weeks before Georgia Tech. They on average have one before GT every year.

GT faces 3 ACC Coastal division opponents coming off of byes (Miami, UNC and Duke) - the most of any ACC team.

2016 Schedule analysis - Bye Weeks

That's ok, UNC will get theirs next week when VT catches them coming off a bye, while the Heels have to lose a travel day (and maybe a hot tub recovery day too) after returning from Tallahassee...

There are a couple of folks who haven't gotten their picks in -- get 'em in soon :)

Go and look up the last time GT played a schedule without anybody in NC getting a bye before the GT game. And how many times (if any) that has happened since 2008 when PJ arrived. That'd probably be interesting to look at.

Interesting "Geek" Stats --

* 7 players have changed one or more of their picks this week

* 10 games in the slate have seen at least one changed mind on a pick

Paul Johnson is 2-6 against Miami. Paul Johnson is 2-6 against Mark Richt. Combine the two and... GT ain't winning this game any time soon.

This should be a wild and woolly weekend. Whoever wins this week will have earned that big cash prize you promised.

I'm in 5th place overall even after not registering until week 2. My comeback is going to be epic...
