2021 AGS Pick'em Challenge (Week 5)

[MTfan4life]

Here are the week 5 picks: https://forms.gle/rpbMN2CL25xtSLCQ6


Because of the lack of coin-tossable games, there is the return of some picking by a spread games. I believe it's only 3, but be prepared as they are the last 3 FCS games on the form.

One note, yes the 2 point matchup of the week is the Big Sky for the second week in a row. It is my goal to spread that out amongst all the conferences, so this will probably be the last Big Sky appearance of the season. Couldn't really pass up either game, though.

I still need to tabulate the season standings, but I can tell you after another solid week, Prime Power is still handily in first.

[ElCid]

Egads! I can't believe you didn't have The Citadel/VMI game. The Military Classic of the South with a 1-2 point spread! But I know you are trying to spread it around.

[ElCid]

And you have Bethune-Cookman and Ala St, again. I'll take Alabama St this time.

[katss07]

In. Thanks for continuing to run this.

[ElCid]

You might want to wait until he fixes the repeat from last week.

[caribbeanhen]

Alabama State has a double header this weekend?

Bethune and Fl A&M

[Daytripper]

I'm going to wait until it is confirmed that the repeat game is removed. (replaced by VMI v The Citadel??)

whoops. Didn’t see this

[Katfan]

Me either. I probably still got it wrong.

[ElCid]

Crazy, but I got it right this week...unlike last week☹️

[Daytripper]

I'm bumping this in the hope that MTfan4life will see this and will fix the repeat game.

I sent him a PM as well.

[MSUBobcat]

I'm in, with the repeat game picked correctly this go-round. If it is fixed, I hope I get a PM.

[MTfan4life]

Son of a bitch. My apologies, gang. I don't know how I missed that one. We'll replace it with VMI @ The Citadel, tentatively. If I can't get ahold of everybody who did pick, I'll just throw the question out.

As I look over the games, I'm pretty sure I meant to do Alabama State vs. Florida A&M, but we'll stick with VMI/The Citadel.

I have sent an email out to all the early pickers for the change. Please make sure to either respond to the email or send me a PM here. Please don't submit an extra form. Thank you.

You thought I was procrastinating every week, but I've really been helpfully allowing you extra time to find and fix issues. xthumbsupx

Nothing wrong with procrastinating! I usually do my picks on Thursday or Friday as well. I just like to send reminders to make sure and check all the boxes so as to not leave anybody behind. xthumbsupx

Let's keep this corps all year! (Additional people still feel free to join. Including you kalm, you rat bastard!)

Also, as a third bonus, the season standings have finally been updated to include last week!

I can’t believe you don’t have the Big Sandy v. Box Elder match up as one of the games.

SMH.

[MTfan4life]

Well, one of the bonus questions this week backfired. Only two teams managed to record more than 2 field goals. Then there was a TEN way tie for 3rd with 2. So any pick of twelve separate teams earned the bonus. That almost happened the same with teams with 4 sacks. However, Montana saved the day and left the sacks category to just Montana, Campbell, and Valpo with 5+ sacks. The standings for this week will leave the group in misery with the ever proud caribbeanhen in the lead and then scaredy-cat kalm just two points behind. The guy for four weeks said he didn't want to do picks because he's not any good and he shows up and almost takes down the leaderboard. Hopefully that will incentivize him to keep playing. We shall see. Anyways, here are the results from this wild week littered with second half comebacks. (16 of the 30 winners did not have the lead at half-time. That's wild.)

Another crazy thing to point out. Paward has scored exactly 18 points every single week. (outside of a skipped first week)

[caribbeanhen]

“The standings for this week will leave the group in misery with the ever proud caribbeanhen in the lead”

Lol, I’m not really that gloriously proud

but I will say checking in on as many football games as you possibly can helps your chances

[JacksFan40]

Rough week.

Haha, I know. When I said group, I really just meant myself. 😂 You've gained like 12 points on me the last 3 weeks!

[McNeese75]

Sucked as usual xcoolx

[MSUBobcat]

There were so many games that were a coin flip that I forgot who I picked, apparently. Hadn't "graded my test" yet, but from perusing the scoreboards, I thought I did pretty ****ty. Turns out, not so bad!

[Puddin Tane]

Im doin alright considering I know nuthin bout the eastern teams

[Carolina010]

Rough week.

Your tellin me

Your honor, I rest my case and ask that you add 18 for week one!

Considering that would still only put you in 36th place, I would agree to those terms! xlolx
