Albyn calls that one for A&M, so no, it won't be an upset.

The Fla. State-Virginia game is, though.

In case you didn't figure it out, this week is also all Albyn Jones for me based on his 09/14 rankings (the most recent).

One interesting thing is that he ranked Duke and BC dead even. Adding in the home field gave his pick to Duke, though it was comfortably within his error limits.

The closest game for him this weekend is Miami Virginia, so don't be surprised at a tie there, either.

OK, who had UCLA - Santa Clara as a tie?

 

I'm gonna go out on a limb and take Penn State over Portland. They played well against ND...much closer than the 3-1 final would indicate.

 

You'll certainly get an edge if PSU wins...don't think anyone else picked that.

 

Looks like HoyaHooligan was the only one to pick Virginia over FSU.

 

Final standings:
me: 29pts
crazyhorse 29pts
thomas 28pts
bm 28pts
clive 25pts

 

a bad week for Albyn.

 

People who saw the UP game also say they played closer than the score indicated.

A pattern? sounds like the back line needs shoring up.

 

Missed it by that much.
