Yahoo College Football Pick'em

So it says I have a 9-10 record, tied with 7 other people, but it has me ranked first among them. Is this just random placement, or were the tie-breakers taken into account? If so does it show anywhere what everyone's tie breakers were?

No idea, in all my years of playing I've never entered the tiebreaker stuff cause it doesn't really matter at the end.

Ya I figured in a league our size it would never even matter after the first week or so. Was just curious.

This blows I didn't realize we were using the spread when I made my picks cause I didn't read the OP. I got every single victory chosen correct too.

When they show "pick distribution" graph on the right, is that with our without the spread?

Because it seems most games are pretty lopsided.

click on it and it will open a new window where you can select spread or confidence but the small version on the page while making picks should relate to the groups rules.

I can't do anything with point spreads. I'm horrible at predicting that type of thing. The one I'm most annoyed at was my picking UNC before all the suspensions and forgetting to change after they were announced. I can only imagine how much different it woulda been without 12 suspended players and an officiating crew that wasn't SEC and thus prone to making the worst calls of any officials (see number of complaints last year).

bump so I can stop digging for this thread

Other than LSU-Tenn, there isnt a single spread over 10 points so far for this week, and a lot of < 3 point spreads.

This week should really separate the men from the boys
