I'm done trusting Georgia Tech, Baylor, Washington St., Purdue, etc.,... and just going to pick the lowest ranked team when Utah is involved in a match!! Whenever I pick a team that should win because they are at home, have no key injuries, their opponent has injuries or some losing streak, etc., etc., etc. I get hosed with my pick! SMH

Yes indeed.
But here are are the cumulative stats:
Cumulative Poll Scores: 78.1% 125-35 AVCA 77.2% 125-37 VT Poll 75.8% 125-40 Richkern 73.9% 122-43 VT Contestants 73.7% 99.5-35.5 Pablo
As most of us appreciate, Pablo early season ranking are based on an algo that imparts value to last years results. Starting this week we will be including the recently released NCAA/RichKern RPI rankings to add to the confusion.

VT, collectively, might regret having 95% confidence in WSU on the road.

Undoubtedly, many PTW'ers will be happy to know that the last match I cut from this week's draft PTW was TAMU v. Georgia. Georgia over TAMU (H) 3-0 You're welcome.

I mean, I’ll never pick Texas A&M again.
Picked them to win one of the matches at Tennessee last week, and they went out and won the wrong match

Picking the SEC is as mine filled as picking the Pac 12.
