Big Ten Elimination Pool - Week 9
« on: October 22, 2019, 06:38:11 PM »
Everyone knows the rules by now right?
  • You pick one Big Ten team to win each week, straight up.
  • You cannot pick a team playing an FCS opponent
  • You cannot pick a team twice over the course of the season
  • If you get wrong wrong, you are out.
  • If you miss a pick, you are out.
  • If everyone is eliminated in the same week, you stay in, but you DO NOT get that pick back.  However if someone is eliminated in that week by failing to make a pick, they do not rejoin.
  • There are 14 teams, and 14 weeks, so no worrying about saving a team for the CCG
  • Picks must be posted prior to kick time listed.

Any questions, let me know.

  • Week 1 - 22 players, 1 elimination (1-Purdue)
  • Week 2 - 21 players
  • Week 3 - 21 players, 6 eliminations (5-Illinois, 1-Maryland)
  • Week 4 - 15 players
  • Week 5 - 15 players, 1 elimination (1-no pick)
  • Week 6 - 14 players
  • Week 7 - 14 players, 2 eliminations (2-Iowa)
  • Week 8 - 12 players, 7 eliminations (7-Wisconsin)
  • Week 9 - 5 players

Yikes, this looks like a rough week.  I don't feel supremely confident in any of the teams available so good luck to the five of you that are still in this thing.  

Illinois at Purdue:
All five have already taken Illinois, none have taken Purdue yet.  My guess is that Purdue wins in part because Illinois is likely due for a hangover after their huge upset but the other side of that coin is that Illinois suddenly looked like a top-25 team for about 1/3 of the Michigan game and, obviously, the Wisconsin game.  Maybe they can keep that rolling?

Iowa at Northwestern:
Only @Badger1969 still has Iowa on the board, all but @LetsGoPeay have Northwestern.  This just feels like a game where the Cats could pull the upset.  

Wisconsin at Ohio State:
Three players still have Wisconsin and three players still have Ohio State.  @LetsGoPeay still has both.  I would be leery of touching this game either way.  

Indiana at Nebraska:
Nobody still has Indiana on the board but everybody except @iahawk15 still has Nebraska.  I like Nebraska in this game but I'm not terribly confident in that.  

Penn State at Michigan State:
Everybody still has PSU, all but @Badger1969 still have MSU.  I like PSU, but I'm not all that confident in any team against MSU's D.  

Notre Dame at Michigan:
Only @iahawk15 still has the Wolverines but I'd be leery of using that pick here.  

This will be an interesting week to watch!

Well, if MSU wins, we've got a winner.
