Bump.

North Carolina hosts Wake Forest in an OOC game this evening at 6PM. This is the first of three games tonight on the Pickem slate. Still time to get your entries in.

Looked at plenty of resources when trying to decide on a pick for the game tonight. Really tough call but went with the Deacs at home.

WF kids tend to be pretty smart and can execute a game plan. What you saw from Carolina you often see from State in Winston - piss poor first half play and no sense of urgency until the 4th. By then you are gambling and they play disciplined - I've sat through five losses in Winston and they were all the same. Clawson and staff are pretty damn good as well

Well everyone took BC so no perfect ballots this week.

Well, folks, if you aren't doing so well with your picks so far, you are not alone. With just seven games in the books, everyone has at least four losses. It could have been worse, if Pitt had scored from 1st and goal on the one. It could have been even worse if we included ACC games against FCS teams on the card.

I guess after the first two weeks that were strong on chalk, this was bound to happen sooner or later. One thing surprising to me was that only one player picked Temple and no one picked Air Force even though the point spreads suggested these would be competitive games.

Well, 8 games to go. Maybe we'll do better this afternoon.

Shows what Vegas knows. I couldn’t pull the upset trigger on either one.

CU was at home and already owned a win over UNL. Air Force hasn’t even played a FBS opponent so they were a ? to me.

Temple also hadn’t played a FBS team yet and was picked 4th in AAC East. Maryland could have scored a 100 on Cuse last week if they wanted to. Wondered why Owls were only 5 point dogs.

It seems only fitting that this chaotic week will come down to a tossup game that has been delayed more than two hours.

I count a 4 way tie at 10-5 - did I miss something?

Actually, six players rang the bell with 10 wins this week. They were: Buckminster Fuller, CollegeCard, Garrettabc, IHAVETRIED, Statefan and TexanMark. Each of them will receive 3 rep points for their efforts! Congratulations - you survived the bloodbath that was Week 3.

So far, the standings in the Rep Point Race look like this:

7 Texan Mark
4 CollegeCard
4 copycat
3 Buckminster Fuller
3 esayem
3 Garrettabc
3 IHAVETRIED
3 JRsec
3 Statefan
3 TyBull
