Thanks for taking over! Those standings are after week 2 though, btw. A few of us picked last week so we should include those. I'll try to do that if I get time...mainly because I went 12/12 and want that known lol!

Remind me to parlay your picks next time you’re going to pick all 12!

Thanks for doing this.
 

Thanks for being inclusive. I didn't do one in week 3, but I'm not going to win anyway, so I'll start again here.

After reviewing a couple comments and thinking about it.

There are a couple ways of doing this. One is that we can have weekly winners where in the future, I'll have the Gopher game as a tie breaker where by you predict the number of points that the Gophers will score.

Or we can do an ongoing tally where unfortunately some didn't get in on the first week, some didn't participate last week etc., etc.. May not be as fun as a week to week situation.

By doing it the first option, people have a chance for a fresh start each week and they would be known as the rodent of the week or whatever name you folks come up with.
 

I like the idea of weekly winners. Allows someone to join at any time and miss a week if life throws roadblocks.

Thank you much #2 -- I think we could go with a season long for those who got in and a week to week

Just an FYI - I have run bowl game pick-ems before and I used a Google form. You can then set up a spreadsheet to tabulate the results for you. Requires some knowledge of spreadsheets though.
More work on the front end but makes it so you don't have to count and keep track of stuff later.

Just an idea ... not volunteering to do it!
 



Thanks! Missed the first week, so haven't participated. Looking forward to it :)

It's much easier to tabulate them all when they are written the same way -- I don't know if #2Gopher minds, but my two cents.
