9.5? Man, I'd hit that if that's what Vegas had the game at. Even if Browning is playing I'd have that line north of 11. Cardinal hasn't scored under 41 to any pac team this year and has only won by less than 18 to USC which they beat by 10.

Anyone else think that our pickems are getting a little more confusing to pick every week? No offense, I mean the guys who are operating them are doing a great job and I for one appreciate all their hard work but I feel like it's becoming more work every week to make picks. I'll shut up now and suck it up. Again, I appreciate the hard work that you guys are doing for us. Pickems definately make watching PAC 12 football a little more interesting.

lol, you are doing fine. Was just busting some balls. Still kind of bitter I got removed from this contest. The week I got banned I actually had all of the games right except Utah beating Oregon. I would have had the overall lead.

Line sounds about right. Our defense can still keep us in games, it's just our offense that is a massive work in progress. Should still a lot of fun to see the two best defenses in the conf on display. Got to love that.

No, I get what you are saying......

Compared to previous years, I guess the main struggle for us this year has not only been implementing the PAC pickem's as we've always done it, into the new SportsHoopla formatted system. but rather complicated from getting a late start and attempting to get the early seasons data in too.

The reason i missed the reentery for week 1 is because I dont usually start checking this thread until wednesday usually. I dont know why exactly I checked it early in this week and saw about picking week 2.

Probably shouldn't have posted this here. It was merely a reminder for everyone to make their picks wallace, and on the pickem's to give two points for the game of the week we need to list it twice so we can continue to assign it two points just like we've always done.

As far as the (A) and (F) go I thought it was pretty damned straight forward.

If I were to just put up a teaser that said Interceptions, what does that mean? Interception thrown or is it by the defense? What team do you pick? So we needed to identify if the teaser stat is for the team you are picking or against so when you pick one or the other, it's the right one.

If I put up turnovers is it turnovers by the offense, or does that include special teams? Is it FOR (F) the team your are picking or is it AGAINST (A) the team you are picking?

Just too much ambiguity.

HA! Lee Sterling of paramount sports put the furd/pups line at 11 if Browning plays.

Of course he also said stanford would more than cover winning something like 32-17 so there's that... :pout:
