Love the new math! Doubled my points!!
Sorry though for cctop, who has now taken my spot at ccbottom.

Holtz thinks USC will win 24-21? Then I am very confident in my SU 27 USC 13 pick...

CCTOP's honesty makes him #1 in lowest scoring, but takes him out of the Hall of Shame.

Outsider Fan is headed to the Hall. What is the punishment?

How about drop the "fan" from his handle?
RE: Week 2 Predictions Thread - BostonCard - 09-06-2019
Hmm, the prompt to make the score prediction seems to be absent.
I'm going with a low-scoring, tight game. Sequoia sempervirens 14, Equus africanus asinus 13.

I can't find the prompt for entering a prediction,either.
Our defense should be able to contain a back up quarterback. Trouble is, so should theirs. Another low scoring game.
Stanford 17
USC 14

Stanford 13
USC 20

Maybe predictions were closed a day too soon...? I looked around in the admin control panel, and I didn't see a setting for that. Hopefully george will come by and fix it
RE: Week 2 Predictions Thread - ADPinWDC - 09-06-2019
Right -- the button for entering is gone.
Wager talk seems to be tilting against U$C with JT Daniels out, forcing a bigger adjustment than we have with Mills.
ARBOREETANS (STAN): 27
TROYENS (U$C): 20.

Stanford 23-20.
I'm not able to access the contest. Advice?
RE: Week 2 Predictions Thread - Snorlax94 - 09-07-2019
I can’t access it either so I’ll just post here
Stanford 24-10
I’m baffled that Vegas thinks USC wins. Adebo wins the matchup with Vaughns, Slovis throws multiple interceptions, *if* the O line can keep Mills remotely clean (my biggest concern and possible nightmare scenario), we dice up the SC secondary.
Stanford has the better backup qb (by far), the better defense overall, better run game, and better special teams. That usc KR return for a TD, btw, was a ridiculous block-in-the-back-holding combination on the contain man and should’ve been called back.

Sorry everyone! The widget jumped the gun. Please go through and add your predictions now. If you aren't able to add your prediction before, we can manually add it as long as you documented it here.

It's funny, because just yesterday I was remembering back to people chanting "University of Second Choice" to their incessant band. And I can't make any sense of that one. It is a compliment to USC and a slight to CAL (and a number of other more worthy schools if we aren't limited to Pac 12).
I also found myself in my Mazda behind a pretty hot Maserati with a USC license plate frame. There aren't many cars like that around here. I didn't get a chance to say anything.
