Picking the most number of upsets--

ram - 3 for 3
CatinIl - 2 for 3
blueboss - 2 for 3
SalsaKat - 2 for 3
Catfan73 - 2 for 3
catmanjack - 2 for 3

Folks, that's outstanding. Well-done, gang. I calculated that overall, the entire group hit 46.7% of the upset picks. If Auburn wins tonight, it will go over 50%, and even if FSU wins, the group will remain over 40%. Terrific job.

[Darrell KSR]

Alas, Auburn gave a great run at it, but fell just 0:13 short.

Congratulations to all for a fantastic Stupid Underdog Pick, Bowl Game Edition. You guys were on fire. Well done, all, and especially ram.

[Lfbj00]

I guess it's only fitting that after winning the regular season, I can't even get one win in the bowl games. Thanks for doing it D...it's always fun.
