Week 14 Tweetstorm
Item 1. It was the
closest of calls for Bill Stewart who
is trying to get his first ever perfect week since
joining the pool in 2010. He needed a successful
two-point conversion from BYU late Saturday night to
cover the 13-point spread. But it wasn’t to be. The
Cougars didn’t get it and won by 12. Stewarts’ streak is
now 278 weeks...
Item 2. A long streak
that was broken was a 159-week streak by Roger
Marsh. He hadn’t had one since Week 6 of the
2016 season…
Item 3. On the flip side,
in one of the more romantic moments we’ve had in Pigskin
Mania, husband and wife Mike and Renee
Gastineau were both perfect in Week 13. If a spousal
daily double has happened before in PM history, we’re
unaware of it. Congratulations you love birds…
Item 4. A technical note
when submitting picks, we’ve figured out a workaround to
having to refresh the picks page before you submit your
picks. Players no longer have to do that. Just make your
picks when the page comes up…
Item 5. Texas is back up
in the Pigskin Special when it takes on Georgia in the
SEC Championship. The Longhorns are 2.5-point favorites
to beat a team that beat them in the regular season...
Item 6. The late pick six
by the Broncos in the Monday Night Football game added
nine perfect weeks to the pool for a total of 68 in the
week, the second most in one week in pool history…
Item 7. With the college
regular season over, there are fewer games to pick from.
We remain on a Thursday through Monday schedule until
the week of Dec. 17 when we open up the schedule to
Tuesday through Monday to include all bowl games. There
are nine conference championship games to pick from this
week…
Item 8. We almost had
back-to-back weeks where blue-bloods Alabama and Ohio
St. would have been the Asshanders. But lowly Kansas
stepped in and took it away in a 45-17 drubbing by
Baylor as 1.5-point favorites. 56 players were on the
Jayhawks…
That’s all we have. We hope
everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving holiday. On to the
next one.
