Official Allbuffs 2018 Pick Em Challenge - Week 2

Past Winners:
Week 1 = @hokiehead

Rules:
10 games (I choose them, with a focus on competitive matchups on tv & lean toward Pac-12 games. I also try to fill the day up as much as possible on Saturday with game times.)

1. Pick a winner of each game
2. Assign a value to each pick (using 1 thru 10 once each)
3. Each correct pick gets you the points assigned to the game
4. Winner is whomever has the highest point total
5. Everyone who played gives the winner a Like because it would be a dick move not to do so

Tiebreaker is CU's point total if the Buffs are playing. If CU isn't playing, I'll think of something else.

Nitpicky rules stuff:
If I've got Thursday, Friday or Saturday morning games included and you miss the cutoff, you can still play.
First missed game is automatically your 1-pt game. Second is your 2-pt game. Etc.
If a game has kicked off before you get your picks in, that counts as missing the game.

Note: As always, help (i.e., others doing the math) to tell me who won is always appreciated.

I'm going to spend twice as much time on my picks this week. 2*0 is still 0, right?

I was just observing most posters are picking the same winners in games...relax.
You misunderstood my comment. I was really surprised (after I saw your comment) when I went back and looked at yours and the other previous posts and saw the similarities. I wasn't suggesting your post was ridiculous.

Looks like I'm gonna beat you by 1 or 2. (y)
