Pick-the-Winners Contest Stats:
Entries: There were 114 entries.
There is no pick in the 50s% this week, and only 3 in the 60s%, which means PTWers didn’t think there’d be many surprises. Well, the 7 home underdogs could make things interesting. One PTWer actually picked 14 upsets! If that PTWer wins, or comes close to winning, there could be new holes on many walls after Sunday – punched by mad PTWers!

out of 114 entries 11 are 2/2 ? something's not right. Only 13 PTWers picked Cal Poly over UCLA, so the rest were either 1-1 or 0-2. And guess what, Cal Poly beat UCLA in the match tonight too. Home underdogs are vicious.

Big Ten didn't do well yesterday. Penn St and Wisc going down by 3-0 3-1, yikes. Maybe Nebraska does have a chance.

Or incredibly lucky.
If I had to pick all these matches -- same ones -- for NEXT weekend, I'm not sure I would change any picks. And I think I got two right?

PTW results after Sunday matches:
PTW favored teams had won: Sunday: 3/3 Overall: 19/25
Altogether 5 of 7 home underdogs won. And 1 of the 7, Creighton (vs Nebraska) should practically not be considered a home team. So BYU beating Marquette was the only away favorite that won. To me BYU has to be the unanimous #1 in all polls.
Average PTW score: Sunday: 2.9/3 Overall: 17.5/25 Std Dev: 1.81
Closest To the Tie-Breaker score of 186: 186 (5) Right on 185 (10) 187 (5) Eastsidepride won with this 184 (5) 188 (7) 183 (3) 189 (3) So many close ones!
Eastsidepride’s key picks to victory were:
11% 1. Cal Poly over UCLA 9% 3. Baylor over Wisconsin 14% 9. Marquette over Southern Cal
