How the hell am I supposed to know anything about ULM, Troy, Temple, Western Michigan, etc... those are really just shots in the dark.

Romber, it's true that those are teams from 'lesser' conferences, I'll agree. That being the case is why I want to give them a little bit of limelight, here. UL-M and Troy are battling today for the lead in the Sun Belt conference; W MI and Kent were both in the top half of their divisions, and Temple's having quite a surprising year and LEADING their division, undefeated, in the MAC.

Coverage in the media's nearly constantly focused upon the 'major' conferences... these types of teams deserve to get some notice too though, I feel. And, re: your question... there's all sorts of information available online!

ATM regarding your game -- what does the two bowl game weeks include?

They'll have all the bowl games, Jaguar; I just split them into two sectors to make the tabulations I have to do more manageable.

I'm leaning strongly towards including the I-AA playoff games in the mix this year as well, because I feel that the topmost teams in that division are just as good, if not better than, the majority of teams at the I-A level... as well as the fact that they have a playoff in their division. If some playing the game choose to not make selections in these contests, though, I realize that that's an individual's prerogative... I do wish that those people will reconsider their stance in regards to this division when their playoffs roll around, though.

Once again, thanks for hosting the game this year.

You're very welcome, Seal. I'm glad to hear when it's appreciated, as it takes a good bit of time for me to manage it. With that 'amount of time spent' in mind, and in conjunction with the fact that there's a good degree of matching between the games I select, and the Top 25 contests in the Yahoo! game, I'm definitely going back to "Stupid Underdog Picks" next year - that's a significantly simpler game to manage!

'Thank you' again for noting your appreciation of the game.



Regarding the whining pussy, I'll save that for its own post, as watching games being played at present is of MUCH greater importance to me.
