Week 11 Wrapup

My Picks:

Week 1 58-12 (82.86%)
Week 2 52-9 (85.25%)
Week 3 46-19 (70.77%)
Week 4 45-15 (75.00%)
Week 5 44-15 (74.58%)
Week 6 37-19 (66.07%)
Week 7 39-16 (70.91%)
Week 8 39-16 (70.91%)
Week 9 38-14 (73.08%)
Week 10 43-11 (79.63%)
Week 11 38-17 (69.09%)


Season 479-163 (74.61%)


-------------------------------


* Ohio St lost leading to a cluster at the top. Kansas and Hawaii are still unbeaten, but aren't at the top. Kansas will need to win out to make it to the National Champioship game, and Hawaii will need to win out just to make it to a BCS Bowl game. Oregon and LSU look like the favorites to make it now.

* The only teams that are still undefeated in conference play are Kansas, Central Michigan, BYU, Hawaii, Boise St, and Troy.

* FIU and Utah St are the only winless teams left, but FIU has its best chance this season to get a win on Saturday when they host 2-8 Louisiana Lafayette.

* So far this season I have picked 13 teams correctly every week. They are
- Arizona St
- Arkansas St
- Baylor
- FIU
- Fresno St
- Hawaii
- Idaho
- Mississippi
- Missouri
- Nevada
- UAB
- Virginia Tech
- Wake Forest


* There have been 11 teams that I have struggled with picking all year long and have missed 5-6 time each: They are:
- Arkansas
- Colorado
- Iowa St
- Kent St
- Louisville
- Maryland
- Miami
- Ohio
- UCLA
- Utah
- Virginia

Season 441-146 (75.13%)


-------------------------------


* Both Arizona St and Boston College fell from the ranks of the unbeatens this weekend. Now only Ohio St, Kansas, and Hawaii remain undefeated.

* I'm not sure how many people have noticed this, but Connecticut is 8-1 with the lone loss coming at Virginia by a single point. The Huskies are that close to being undefeated.

* Speaking of Virginia and single point victories, the three Cavaliers wins over the past four weeks have all come by one point. They've also had two two-point wins and a five-point win. In fact, the only two teams that they have really beat are Duke (24-13) and Pittsburgh (44-14), both at home.

* Another team that is falling apart is Maryland. They've lost their last three and stand 1-4 in conference. With a home game against Boston College and road games against Florida St and an improving NC State team, the Terrapins might not win again.
