And, any investigation into this contest will come up with zero findings, I got lucky as hell and Im stickin to my statement!

I believe we have evidence of text messages from MikeyP offering $180,000 for 35 additional confidence points.

Whatever, I kicked ass down the stretch - nailing the final 8 games correctly and 12 of the last 13 (Only missed on Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl). I also picked correctly on 21 of the last 26 games.

The problem was that MikeyP had much higher confidence points on his picks down the stretch. Had I lost a few more games, it would have put me in a position to catch him last night with my pick of Auburn. We had many of the same picks this final weeks, he just had more points on them.

MikeyP was 18-8 in the final 26 games, I was 21-5 and Zombo was 10-11.

I'm not sure how MikeyP even won ... I think he cheated. Two years from now, we will get to the bottom of this travesity and declare me the winner!

#1.) Atenears will lose the next three games, then Auburn will win the National Championship and Atenears will be donn'ed Champ.

#2.) Atenears will win his next game, then lose the next two before Auburn wins the National Championship and Atenears is crowned Champ.

#3.) Atenears will lose next two games, before winning final two including Auburn in the Nat Championship game and will be hailed Champ!

I just want to Thank all of my fans for cheering me on down the stretch, and for OSU Receiver Dane Sanzenbacher for his contributions to making big plays in the Sugar Bowl.

(notice how Zippy & Mark stop posting in this thread .... Haha ... L-O-S-E-R-S)

Well looks like you need Boston College to win to go into BCS Championship game level on points with MickeyP, otherwise it will be down to fighting it out for 2nd spot with myself Stan.

Though hate to burst your bubble and say neither of us is going to win it outright, as mikeyP looks the favourite to me at quick glance

Yeah Mikey is in the drivers seat to win this thing. My strategy this year was to back-off of the minor games and focus more on the Big Name teams that we are all more familiar with. It worked to some degree, but I started off only guessing 3 of the first 9 games correctly in the minor Bowls, but once the Big Money games began I'm 15-5 over the last 20 games and look to finish as the runner-up if Auburn wins the National Championship. You are correct, it is going to come down to the National Championship game between you and I. If Auburn wins, I think I will finish second overall.

I heard Zombo and Mark are wearing neck braces from whiplash.

@atenears said:

Well Looks like you will come ahead of Zombo & Mark, seeing as how we both have the same teams picked up until the BCS game, It will likely be that I will be few points ahead of you going into the title game.

Next to conquer the NBA League!

Five Big Ten teams play today and I took only one ... Wisconsin in the Grand Daddy.

WTF...I hate Clemson too, Charlie Baumann waving the ball in Woody's face at the Gator Bowl..

Who do you guys like in the Rose Bowl? I hate Wisconsin, but picked them anyway.

@bob806 said:

I had S. Fla, I hate Clemson.

@bob806 said:

wtf! I picked S Fla over Clemson lol. I must have made that pick with my eyes closed.

@brownandorange said:

Seems like a lot of parity this year, so picking was tough. I doubt too many had S Fla over Clemson today.

@bob806 said:

I went 1-3 lol.. UNC beat the Vols killed me. I pick the SEC team in each and every match-up. Apparently that theory isn't too successful

@kamac19 said:

I'll make an Oficial Atenears Guarantee (OAG) that you, Zombo & Mark all finish behind me. I have a strategy this year and just sitting back allowing it to take it's course. I knew I wouldn't be out in front early on this season, but planned on taking the lumps to get the last laugh.

@atenears said:

Your still lagging behind a Scottish guy who doesn't know a great deal about the college teams apart from the few main big colleges, now it would be embarrassing to finish below me, so best get those big jugs of margarita's out to drown your sorrows Stan 🥷

And, Congrats to everybody else, it was FUN again, as always...that makes us all winners !

(but Rich pummeled us this year, so we didn't have any moral victory there, either... LOL)
