    BisonTru and JDZ both have only used up 2 playoff teams thus far, NDSUStudent right behind them with 3. I've used up 9, so not sitting quite as pretty.

    I guess Hampton wasn't intimidated by the not as intimidating Bison of Howard either.

    Yeah, anybody who is on a deep run in this game and has the balls to pick SDSU over NDSU deserves some kind of honorable mention trophy.

    I disagree...it was a gutsy call, but poor game management. He limited himself for later in the game. This would be like using timeouts early in the 2nd half and not having them when the game mattered. Or maybe it would be like using that really good secret play for a 3rd and 1...when any play would do. Or even teh saying, jumping the shark comes to mind.

    Each week I tried to go out of my way to make sure I was picking a team that hadn't been picked by anyone else that week. As the season went on, I started getting riskier and riskier.

    Given where this challenge is taking place, the conditions surrounding that game, and the buzz factor, I had to pick SDSU that week.

    I have my doubts about whether I would've need my SDSU pick back come December/January. Time will tell.

    Perhaps though, it would've been more fun picking SDSU over NDSU whilst in the vehicle on the way down to Frisco.

    That's funny right there. Everybody knows bunny fans don't travel for football games.

    Well...maybe I could find a basketball game somewhere in Frisco to go to...and maybe hit the football game as well...if I had time.
