I'm setting up my list on Yahoo. Anyone here want to run a group, or shall I?

Since no one has spoken, I have taken my own initiative.

I'm very beatable. Come and get me!

Congrats, Steve. So far, you're leading in both points and prognosticating ability.

I'm second from the top in correct guesses, but didn't really have a confidence level, so I'm second from the bottom in points.

I say that the loser should get pied.  :sombrero:

OK, who gets the π?

/aka 3.1416... or 22/7.

That is to be determined after all of the Bowl games have been completed (excluding the Super Bowl)

I have far from the highest possible points, though.

I remain steadfastly amazed at a) being in the lead and b) having the most possible points. This isn't right.

It comes down to this: I win if Auburn wins, Adam wins if FSU wins.

And I get the pie if Auburn wins, Doug gets the cellar if FSU wins.

There used to be a local show called "Fearless Football Forecasters," where prominent sportswriters and businessmen would make football predictions. At the end of the season, the person who was the least successful in their predictions would get pied in the face.

Thanks to the FSU comeback, fortunately, I avoid that last place finish. :)
