GopherHole Staff has informed me today that the awards for the top 3 winners for 2024 Pick'ems are under guard 24/7 right now due to recent burglaries in high profile homes and businesses. It has also been reported that security will be increase this week. This has all been taken care of, so no worries folks.
Meanwhile Week 12 produced many upsets making the commissioner very happy after a boatload of posters correctly picking all 4 games correctly during week 11 destroying the potential outcome that I had predicted. Therefore, there were no winners last week mainly due to the fact that there were 10 games to pick from.

Like last year, I had bumped up the games to 10 towards the end of the season and then backed off. This year I had backed off to 6 games as opposed to 4. My regret is not to be clearer about the last couple weeks in advance. During the fall of '25 we will need to clear that up before the season begins.
Not only there are 6 games to be picked. It will be necessary to do two tie breakers if needed.
Two days of games. Friday and Saturday, please have your picks in by November 29th Friday, 11:00 a.m.
Minnesota Golden Gophers at Wisconsin Badgers
Nebraska Cornhuskers at Iowa Hawkeyes
Rutgers Scarlet Knights at Michigan State Spartans
Notre Dame Fighting Iris at USC Trojans
Kansas State Wildcats at Iowa State Cyclones
Pittsburgh Panthers at Boston College Eagles
First Tiebreaker: How many points will the Gophers Score? You may go over.
Second Tiebreaker: How many points will the Badgers Score? You may go over.
Important....One final note: All posters who have accumulated points from 35 to 38, please PM your picks along with the two tie breakers to me this week. You may post on the thread that your picks have been sent to me.
Any questions or concerns, please let me know.
Thanks,
Commissioner
