Woot Woot. Are we all batting 1000? No. Picking Florida State as an away team was risky, but still a reasonable gamble in trying to jump into the lead for the week. Pick-the-Winners Contest Stats:Entries:There were 113 entries. There were no picks with 50s% and 70s%, and only 2 with 60s%, which again means PTWers didn’t think there’d be many surprises. Last week the 7 home underdogs made a mess for many PTWers. This week there are 12 home underdogs, but then most of those are not considered as close as last week’s matches. Impressed, right or wrong: many entries changed their tie-breaker score after the Tuesday Stanford-Texas match. Picks:93% 104 of 112 picked Florida 1. Florida State v.

Well this should be the week we get at least one perfect score.

Well this should be the week we get at least one perfect score. I am guessing that won't happen. We might see many tied for top if there aren't too many upsets, but I hesitate to even guess that.
