Last Man Standing Contest: Station Casinos

[WhatsHisNuts]

I entered this contest, with my dad acting as proxy.

Essentially, you get 5 "lives". You pick 5 games against the spread. If you lose any of the games, you lose a "life". This continues on until there is one person left. I'm doing the college version, and you have to use the games they provide (limited variety).

Last week, I went 5-0. Took OSU, S. Carolina, S. Carolina, Purdue, Purdue.

This week, I was going to double up on Michigan St and Toledo then look for a loose game to get lucky with.....what sucks is that Toledo v Ohio St is not listed.

After all that, here's what I decided to go with:
Michigan St +10.5 (love it. thought about playing it thrice)
Michigan St +10.5
Cincinnati -1.5 (Al confirmed this for me)
Arkansas -1.5 (fading KOD)
Nevada -3.5 (courtesy of BBC)

Wish me luck.

Thanks Al....especially for helping make my mind up on Cinci. You're a very solid capper, my friend.

I'm still alive. Lost the Arkansas and Nevada picks.....note to self: BBC is clueless.

I went 3-2 last week, so I have 3 lives left. A total of 428 people are still alive.

Here's m picks for this Saturday:

IOWA +9.5

WISCONSIN -3.5

COLORADO ST +15.5

It sure would be noce to see Wisconsin do something. Getting great field position, can't do shit.

Wisconsin won, so I definitely live to fight another day.

Colorado St fucked me. They gave up 21pts in the first quarter thanks to INTs, and a blocked punt. At the end of the game, they have 1st and goal for the TD and cover, and they throw 4 god damn incomplete passes....how does that happen???

 

[WhatsHisNuts]

Two lives left going into the first weekend in October.

I'm taking two of these three ugly dogs:

BC +4.5 :scared
Vandy +8.5 :scared
Illinois +6.5 :scared

I'll let yo know who I end up with.

I ended up rolling with Boston College and Vandy last week....BC won, Vandy got crushed, so I am down to my last life.

There is around 100 people left.

This weeks pick:

IOWA -8.5

I love this play. Iowa will be pumped, Michigan is licking its wounds. Not a good spot for a true freshman QB.
