And a Vandy fan can survive… the official VandyMania prediction thread for Week 6

Post by AuricGoldfinger »

There’s nothing like the smell of the results of the pick ‘em after a Vandy win…

Congratulations to the following Maniacs who correctly picked the winners and came closest to the final score of the game: VU1970 and roanoke for Vandy’s narrow escape over UConn; BrentVU for Georgia walloping Arkansas; VU1970 (again) for Alabama over Ole Miss; Doreknox for Auburn over LSU (and nearly an exact score guess); and geeznotagain for picking a comfortable Tennessee win over Missouri (but not that comfortable).

It was not a good weekend for picking upsets, with only one prognosticated: Kentucky over Florida. Kudos to dore74 for the Upset of the Week.

Don’t back down this weekend, Dores.

1. Vanderbilt at Florida, winner and final score.
2. LSU at Kentucky, winner and final score.
3. South Carolina at Tennessee, winner and final score.
4. Arkansas at Ole Miss, winner and final score.
5. Upset of the Week in college football (outright winner versus biggest point spread, or any FCS team over an FBS school—one designated UOTW pick per poster, please)


Go Vandy!

OT but not by much. I think i ran into Hank Jr. at Shoney's in Springfield early on a Sat. morning in the 80s. The guy was bearded, loud & obnoxious, so i'm pretty sure-

2) LSU. 14. UK. 23

3) SC 17. UT. 45

4) Arky 24. Ole Miss. 44

5) Stanford. getting 13 at Arizona State.

1. Gators 44, Dores 17 (I very much like Vandy against a 39-point spread though)
2. Bengals 17, Mildcats 13
3. BeamerBall 27, UTee 26
4. Sooie 37, Colonel Reb 34
5. South Carolina +10.5 road dog over UTEE (although I think Roanoke had a really good pick too)

1. Vanderbilt 10 at Florida 56
2. LSU 21 at Kentucky 20
3. South Carolina 20 at Tennessee 30
4. Arkansas 37. at Ole Miss 30
5. Upset of the Week: Stanford over ASU

BTW: was looking at Sagarin ratings re my upset pick and ran across him rating a few of the Ivies higher than old VU. After getting over my pique, it left me scratching my head. Is he wrong? Is there greater parity? Or are we simply bad?

See above, the Gators are hung over after the Kentucky loss & we somehow capitalize (cannot believe I just typed that).

Ivies have some unusually good teams this year.

Princeton, Dartmouth, Harvard are very solid.

Example - Holy Cross beat UConn. Harvard dismantled Holy Cross at Holy Cross.

Princeton is perhaps the front runner … they are 3-0 with a combined score of 119-7.
