Rules refresher
1) Your pick must be posted prior to kickoff for that game.
2) As always, if you see a mistake please let me know.
3) If you chose a pick that was entered correctly, I'll be terribly sorry! But also, the pick will be invalid and I will PM you to make a new choice.
4) Do not edit your post. Declare that you're changing your pick in a new post. This keeps timestamps intact and all that.
5) Thanks and have fun

Yep. Surprised someone hasn't taken the barn.

Nevada please.
(Not rooting for this, I want to see the B1G do well OOC but it looks like a good pick for this game).
-
Northwestern outright, looking at you @nuwildcat (https://www.cfb51.com/index.php?action=profile;u=28) ...

WTH! STUPID Upset Picks! Right!? Probably regret it because Boise State is the Underdog Lock of the Week. Florida State is a dumpster fire.
But WTH, I'm going with the other FSU. Gimmie Fresno State and the 13 1/2 over USC.

BYU

Nevada is so tempting but...
Boise St. +5 over Florida St.

"With the news of the expected relocation to Tallahassee, the betting line at Caesars Sportsbook moved to Florida State as a 6.5-point favorite. The Seminoles were a 5-point favorite earlier Thursday morning, when the game was still scheduled for neutral site Jacksonville."

I saw that, but listed odds for the game are a snapshot of when I put the list together.

You have it on the list at 5. Your pick is at 5.5. If you go to 6.5, I want Boise State back. :)

Seriously, you need to change the venue and the spread because IRL they both have been changed. I don't see why you nor anyone else on here would have a problem with that.

If you'd like to take over the reigns, I'd be happy to send over the spreadsheets. I'm only running the game because the previous owner (slugsrbad?) couldn't do it anymore.
Otherwise, the game is what it is. I don't have time to monitor and update lines, regardless of a particular change's magnitude.

Got it! Loud and clear! You can change Auburn-Oregon because it's wrong, but you can't change BSU-FSU because it's wrong. You can pick BSU at 5.5 but leave it listed at 5. Got it!

My pick should be +5. I didn't double-check the list before posting.

So you done bitching now, or do you want the spreadsheets?

Having just picked Utah to make the CFP, I'll take BYU +6.5 over them in the Holy War tonight

I'm done and done. Please delete my pick. Don't want you to have to process it in your tabulations.

Nevada
-
Akron
Edit: Fresno State (somehow missed how high this spread is)

Well I'm out of the elimination pick'em but got points here. Those early season west coast games always seem dangerous.

Boise State

Nevada please.

Heard you on the coaches show tonight Hetfield. Good question.

thanks.
I wasn't trying to be a wise ass either. Many of his quotes from post game about needing to be aggressive and it was bad to take the foot off the gas were verbatim replays after the EMU debacle.
He said never again would they go conservative, and starting with Blough throwing for almost 600 the next week vs Mizzou he was serious. Ever since the painful 11 pt choke vs Wisc last year when we should have ended that flipping losing streak he's turned gun shy again.
In other news, any interest in going to the Vandy-Purdue game? I have 1 extra at the moment in our section and there is likely a pair in front of me plus parking pass also avail.

Nice of you to think about me, but I'm coaching 5th/6th volleyball again, and I have a match to coach (and it is picture day). My opportunity to attend college games is now limited to the later half of the year, since we play until about the 20th of Oct.
