But they didn't win by 4 or more. They won by 3. So, Iowa wins against the spread.

EDIT, oh wait...they were the underdog. I will fix it later.

Yeah, you need to get your lines straight for next week. I think you've fucked up about 3 games now in terms of who the favorite is supposed to be.

Well, I got the ISU game right, but read it wrong when I did the totals. But the main reason why I mess up on some games is because the site I use is very difficult to read. So, there's a bigger chance of error when typing it to post here.

So, does anyone know of a site that shows easy-to-read lines?

Ok, these are the new totals after I fixed the Iowa State/Iowa results. Looks like only KCPowercat and shinatoo picked Iowa, so their totals are down. Everyone else picked ISU, so their totals should be up. Again, sorry for the confusion. I read it wrong when I figured the totals, but I posted the line right.

NEW! Total Standings:
beautyfromashes: 14-5 (+9)
AllThingsKC: 12-8 (+4)
KCPowercat: 12-8 (+4)
phxcat: 7-3 (+4)
longviewmo: 6-4 (+1)
shinatoo: 10-10 (even)
kcmetro: 8-11 (-3)
KCMax: 6-13 (-7)

For comparison purposes, this is what I had before I changed it:
KCPowercat: 13-7 (+8)
beautyfromashes: 13-6 (+7)
AllThingsKC: 11-9 (+2)
phxcat: 6-4 (+2)
shinatoo: 11-9 (+2)
longviewmo: 5-5 (even)
KCMax: 7-12 (-5)
kcmetro: 7-12 (-5)

Again, feel free to compare or double check.

Thanks, KCP. That site is a little easier to read. So, that should help. But, part of the problem is remembering whatever the line is when I type it to post here. So, there's always a chance for error. And even when I do the totals from everyone's picks, I could still make mathematical error. That's why I always welcome someone to double check my work, otherwise we'll go with what I have.
