What SUP? Play Oledon's Stupid Underdog Picks, Bowl Games Edition Here

[Darrell KSR]

OK, guys, here we go. Same basic rules as before (written around here somewhere), you pick underdogs to win the game outright, and not just beat the odds (that's Doc's game). If the underdog wins, you get the points they were the underdog as your points (i.e., the bigger the underdog, the more points you earn if they win the game). High risk, high reward.

For the Bowl Games Edition, there's one twist. You don't just pick ONE underdog game, you pick THREE underdogs. We'll total up all the points from all correctly selected upsets for you, and that will be your total score.

May the best man win. Good luck!

I hate to say it, but my theme there was "anti-Sun Belt." They've had an excellent year; I'm just wondering now if the talent level may be shown to have overachieved all season. Two of the three also lost head coaches. Wasn't my best year this year in SUP anyway :).

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that Darrell has still kept on " ringing in the new year", even as late as today. Put down the champagne D!!

I've got a total of 22 points on a 3 for 3 bowl picks. Ram still has a game to play. I'm quite certain I'm being punished for picking UL!! :happy0001:

LOL--man, can I screw it up any worse?

OK, so New Year's Eve has been stretched out a little. Florida played like they had been celebrating for a month, didn't they?

I'll fix. Promise. But I do think you should be punished for picking UL. That would be appropriate, wouldn't it?

[Lfbj00]

^^^^^^^
Trust me....I caught enough crap from the guys at work last night for picking them. It really hurt to watch all those UL fans at work whooping and hollering.

[ram]

???

[Darrell KSR]

Nobody yelled at me for not finishing this up? And we were already so close?

[Darrell KSR]

Now I know why nobody was yelling at me for not finishing--we were already finished. The last 5 bowl game winners were all favored, so there were no more points to be earned.

Congratulations to Lfbj00, a terrific bowl game SUP performance with a perfect 3-for-3 in picks. Well-done.

Full winners list below. Nicely done, all, and thanks for playing the game this year.

The thanks goes to you for grading each week and keeping track of the scores. I did that once or twice a few years ago and it was not easy. I know you put a lot of time in it (including getting the lines posted at the start of the week as well), so thank you again for handling it.


thanks for playing the game this year.

[Lfbj00]

D...Thanks for doing the SUP's!!! It really keeps the interest up all year.

[Darrell KSR]

I am glad to do it, it is fun, but thanks.
