2013 College Football Pick 'em Game

[Highlander]

Georgia not Tennessee

Tennessee kept it under the spread (10 pts) though which puts them in the winner category - at least for Vegas.

line Was GeorgiA +10

line Was GeorgiA +10

And they won by 3 so they didn't cover the spread.

If it was Georgia -10 then yes, but it was Georgia +10. You add 10 points to Georgia's score. Spread covered.

I looked up the line and the actual Vegas line was Georgia -10 but that wasn't how AllthingsKC had it listed. He made the same mistake with LSU at Miss St.

The line I had was Georgia +10. All of us picked Georgia. Georgia is the winner in that case, not Tennessee as I had listed.

So, the corrected standing look like this:

Week 6 standings:
KCMax: 8-2 (+6)
AllThingsKC: 7-3 (+4)
longviewmo: 7-3 (+4)
shinatoo: 7-3 (+4)

Overall standings:
AllThingsKC: 40-20 (+20)
shinatoo: 38-22 (+16)
KCMax: 35-22 (+13)
longviewmo: 35-25 (+10)

I win! Chalk one up for the pedantic a-hole.

Oops. I never bothered to look at the +/-, just assumed Georgia had to be favored after Tennessee had been dismantled by Oregon who probably could have scored 100 on them had they not gone to 2cd string by early third quarter.

Week 7:
Kansas (+24) @ Texas Christian
Baylor (-11) @ Kansas State

Iowa State (+17) @ Texas Tech
Nebraska (-14) @ Purdue
Texas A&M (-5) @ Mississippi
Florida (+6) @ Louisiana State

Am I reading the Texas/Oklahoma line right? Texas is a 13-point favorite?

EDIT: I fixed the Texas/Oklahoma line.

[KCMax]

No, I've seen OU as a 14 point favorite on Yahoo!

It's definitely OU by 13. http://www.thespread.com/component/stat ... lQpmFCsjTo

Ok, the site I use FINALLY fixed it their mistake. They really did have Texas showing as the favorite last night. So yes, OKLAHOMA is the 13-point favorite.

Here is where I get the lines each week: http://www.vegasinsider.com/college-foo ... las-vegas/

I'm always open for better, easier to read sites.
