Play Oledon's Stupid Underdog Picks 2020, LAST WEEK (16) (Week of 12/19)

[Darrell KSR]

Since this is the last week of the Oledon Stupid Underdog Picks Regular Season, I wanted to post the games early.

ALSO--as per prior custom, if anyone wants to post their final pick anonymously, you can arrange to PM it to me if you'd like, and just post on the board that you have made your pick. It's kind of the "Final Jeopardy" mentality where you don't know what the other contestants wagered.

You don't have to, but it's an option.

Good luck, and thanks for playing. Assuming we have a bowl season, we'll figure out a Bowl Season Bonanza version of SUP as well.

I will probably bet Troy on the Pick the Favorites game, but I'm going to go out swinging with my alma mater this week and lose early.

ULM Warhawks, getting their first--and only--win of the season, without a head coach!

(Yes, I know how stupid that looks.)

[BigBluePappy]

As far back as I am - Vandy...
Heck, Columbus took a chance...

Thanks. I'll see if I can get a new line for USC v Oregon...

If anyone sees any other changes, please post for the benefit of everyone. Much appreciated.

As Mick posted, Vanderbilt v Georgia has been canceled. Sorry, Pappy, but I think you get another chance.

Well, Dang!
I was going to look like a genius when Vandy took Georgia and had us kicking ourselves in the collective arse for not beating them.
Northwestern because gosh dang I hate the Bucknuts...

A line has been given for USC v Oregon, the replacement game for USC v Washington.

Where is the contest for Pick the over/under on games cancelled?

I think I read this week has had the most, or the highest percentage cancelled. And that was before a couple more got cancelled.

My guess is that some of them REALLY didn't "have" to be cancelled, but they just said, "screw it." I could be wrong.

[blueboss]

Florida State v Wake Forest has been canceled.

Man! You really did a number on FSU...

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI haven't seen the score, but yes, you're good.

We're all friends here, so that's fine. Now, if I try to get a game in the 4th quarter or something, you guys could slap me down.

I’d like to rescind my previous request due to the fact that Rutgers stunk up the joint...

lol.

It always seems to happen that way...

[Darrell KSR]

Well, I ended the regular season on a high note here. Thanks, Blazers!

It barely nudged me in the middle of the standings, but for me, this wasn't a bad year. You guys are just really good.

Good luck tomorrow to all.

I watched every minute of that game. UAB played well. There are 3 or 4 of those players I have watched since they were in HS and am excited for their success.

Sit and wait mode...

FWIW it’s really hard for me to cheer for Clemson...ever.

Not many good choices this week and then a bunch of games got canceled.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. Clemson ain't gonna lose that game (although it would be fun if they did.)

By the way, kudos to both you and UKFlounder for both a fantastic year of SUP, and respecting the honor of the game. I just noticed that UKFlounder posted his pick publicly, early, and you chose a team other than the one he chose. That's the equivalent to me of the honor of a golfer calling a two stroke penalty on himself when nobody but him sees the ball move.

Well done, both of you.

I thought about the strategy and taking the block pick, but figured I’d rather go for two and the win.

I did think about the domers pick, early on but felt Clemson has the revenge edge, plus Lawrence has something to prove too.

Good job blueboss.

San Jose St.
Nice job on the final regular season week with this +7 point pick! Their first conference championship. I was reading about the win and saw where the players were singing, "Lean on Me" in the postgame locker room, and made me smile. Glad they got a good pick.


I'll take UAB tonight. +4.5
Also glad for my hometown Blazers. What Bill Clark has done for that program has been amazing. Small points here, but glad to have them.

[Catfan73]

I've been sandbagging all year just so I could be one of the only two that won on the last week. Good job Darrell!

[blueboss]

Good job blueboss.

Thanks!
