Death to Orangeute!

Welcome back to the betting competition that takes no money, talent, or time! The same rules apply as last year:

(1) you have to pick a Pac-12 winner each week
(2) you can only choose any particular team to win once during the season (i.e. if you pick Colorado in week 1 you can't choose them ever again) and
(3) you can only select against each team once during the season (i.e. if you pick Stanford over USC you can't later select Oregon over USC0
(4) FBS teams only. If Weber St is involved, no good.

Remember, you are keeping track of who you picked to win each game and who you picked to lose. Let the fun begin!

Here is this weeks slate of games:

Michigan at Utah
UTSA at Arizona
Colorado at Hawaii
Washington at Boise State
Stanford at Northwestern
UVA at UCLA
Texas A&M at ASU
Arkansas St at USC

If you want to game out who to pick in week 13, consult http://pac-12.com/football/schedule

Good luck!

I don't know why they chose a banana in that emoji (is that an emoji? what is an emoji? What's the difference between an emoji and a cartoon?). I can think of a whole host of more intimidating fruits. Pomegranate, pear, kumquat: now those will put the fear of god in you.

A cartoon is a form of two dimensional illustrated art. An emoji is an Asian animal that is warm blooded but lays its eggs underwater.

By the way, people can still put in picks before Saturday (if you haven't already wasted it on the buffs).

All of you sunsabitches will need to pick Copper sometime, and this one seemed the most likely win of the season. Next week is UMass. Take that one.

Lots of gimmes on the schedule (Idaho, UNLV, etc). And a whole host of question marks (Stanford should dominate UCF at home, but they looked really, really, really bad against Northwestern; Colorado should roll UMass at home, but they are Colorado).

Week 6, give me the Sun Devils.

No can do, compadre. You picked the Buffs to lose last week.

What kind of rule is that?

Give me the Utah Utes.

It is a good rule. Otherwise people would simply pick whomever was playing Colorado in a given week. Just like you tried to do! Cheater!

Don't judge me because I sin differently than you...

Death to Orangeute!

Welcome back to the betting competition that takes no money, talent, or time! The same rules apply as last year:

(1) you have to pick a Pac-12 winner each week
(2) you can only choose any particular team to win once during the season (i.e. if you pick Colorado in week 1 you can't choose them ever again) and
(3) you can only select against each team once during the season (i.e. if you pick Stanford over USC you can't later select Oregon over USC0
(4) FBS teams only. If Weber St is involved, no good.

Remember, you are keeping track of who you picked to win each game and who you picked to lose. Let the fun begin!

If you want to game out who to pick in week 13, consult http://pac-12.com/football/schedule

Good luck!

I'm just bumping this so people don't have to go looking for AJ's arcane rules.

In fact, all those rules have been broken at some point this year by one of you scofflaws. Including right now by LAUte!

I didn't remember rule #3. If I'm following the rules, I think I have to pick UW over USC? Go Huskies.

Tough, but that's what you get for picking really easy games like USC over Hawaii, Colorado over UMASS, and Utah over oregon.

P.S. You could also pick Oregon St or Wazzu.

I humbly apologize and withdraw my unlawful pick. Give me a few minutes to regroup. I blame this on the arcane rules.

Best comment on the UW-USC game: "Stupid Sark. Trojans are only 97% effective, but Doggystyle works every g-damn time!"

Sancho is definitely living right. Now, with this game, he could be hard to catch. #Miracleshappen

And then there were four. SoCalPat exits and LA is alive only because I'm benevolent and told him he couldn't chose USC this week.

I could not "chose" anyone, you typo-ridden goofball!

This week my only decent choice is UCLA because I won't pick the Utes to lose and I am not crazy enough to pick OSU to beat WSU. (Now watch Gary A. come up with an upset!)

So: UCLA over Stanfurd.

Good luck! With three picks in different games (LA and Drumn have basically picked the same team week after week) there should be someone that survives into the second half of the season.

Amazing what happens when LA stops stealing my picks. Let this be a lesson kids.

Leave me alone. My only other choice was to pick against Utah, which I refuse to do.

To me as well. Someone cheated. That's the only possible explanation for my elimination.

And then there were two. Congrats to Sancho and Drum N Feather for getting this far. (We are likely the only three still viewing this thread, so feel free to insult everyone else for their rudimentary knowledge of football).

Here's the bracket. It's getting tight: limited choices this week.

I've got the following options:

DNF: Colorado over Oregon St, Washington over Stanford (both road upsets)

Sancho: Ucla over Cal, Oregon St over Colorado, Stanford over Washington (the obvious choice, except for Sancho's hatred for all things Cardinal)

Yeah, yeah, yeah! Give me ucla.

This will probably be the week I bow out...I'll take Washington over the Fighting Rich Rods. Enjoy Miami or South Carolina next season, Richie!

So many people to thank. Obviously first and foremost, the big guy upstairs, Rick Majerus, without whom I wouldn't be here. Second, AppleJack for organizing a contest that ultimately made me feel better about myself. Finally, Sancho for going all in on the fighting Rich Rod's. It's been a great season so far. Thanks to all!

Congrats DnF! you played a great game. I like that the huge, expensive trophy remains on the east coast.
