I say this in fun, so nobody should get mad, but the scoring for this game seems odd to me! I predicted an NC State win of 41-13 (28 point margin), and lost to two guys who predicted an NC State win of 38-17 (21 point margin). Actual score was 59-28, so a 31 point margin. If I'm understanding the scoring, if you pick the winner and don't pick an exact score of either team, it comes down to coming closest to the overall point total of the game without factoring in the margin of victory. So someone who picked NC State to win a nail-biter of 44-43 would have gotten the most points. Seems like predicting margin of victory should matter!
