Not just your browser, I see it too. I'll take a look at it tonight to see if I can figure out what's going on. But everyone's score predictions are
definitely being correctly tracked, so this is only a visual bug.

I thought the numbers were the average. But obviously it's your widget, so you know best what it's supposed to do!
p.s. Looks like it's the average. I temporarily changed my prediction to 1000000 to -1000000 and got what you'd expect.

The number that's showing is the average (also shown at the top of the cardboard forum page, and dynamically populated in the title of this thread on the listing page). However, the widget used to also show the individual predictions in lighter grey next to the scores as it cycled through everyone's prediction. Not sure when that went away.
By the way, we don't have any mechanism for awarding points for "clever nicknames". This game's batch look to be some of the best so far, well done everyone!

Same with me.

We'll probably hear the usual "We didn't want to reveal too much of the playbook" afterwards. McKee will probably be able to pass on Colgate fairly easily but how good our running game will be against the Raiders is unclear. Frankly, it's pathetic that Stanford put weakling Colgate on its schedule. That seems a trend at Stanford, including basketball's propensity for putting a lot of games against marshmallows on the pre-conference schedule. Why not play Menlo College next year? That might be more of a challenge than Colgate.
Say what you will about Stanford football; but they cannot be accused of playing weak schedules. Year in and year out they play one of the toughest schedules in the country. They seldom play a cookie. So I have no problem with this one
Colgate? COLGATE?

Is this game going to be televised? ESPN doesn't show any network.

I guess that means it's on the Pac-12 Network. No network. Pac-12 Net. Same thing.
Thanks Larry!

Except other games are showing "Pac12." Our game . . . nothing. This might be our only win and we can't even watch?

I'm going with the palindromic score of Stanford 31, Colgate 13
Suspect that Shaw, once we are ahead by a couple of TDs, will back off and start subbing in 2nd and 3rd stringers. Agree with those who believe Shaw will not want to show too much before the SUC game and will not want to risk injuries to starters.
Game should be televised on Pac12 Bay Area channel.
PS: Predictions are a lot of fun, thank you for continuing to organize the competition!

I just looked at the schedule and this game is being billed as the Bill Walsh Legacy Game. Is nothing sacred?!?! Does Bill Walsh have some connection to Colgate of which I am unaware?!?!

I remember the humiliating loss to "transitioning" UC-Davis during the inaugural Walt Harris season in 2005 The really dumb part of scheduling UC Davis was scrimmaging them the year before at Stanford Stadium. During that scrimmage, UCD actually kicked Stanford's ass and that gave them the confidence to compete with Stanford the following year when it counted. I'm sure their coach was telling them before the game: we can beat these guys, we did it last year, just play hard...Which knucklehead thought letting UC-D "feel you out" before playing you was a good idea should have been reprimanded. Dumb idea.

Plus the Pac-10 being a wannabe big boy conference and not even having enough resources to have instant replay for every game, which made the difference in that game by wiping out a Nick Sanchez interception that would have allowed Stanford to squeak by.
Not that we should ever squeak by UC Davis. That was a dark day.

Douglas McFadden, Colgate's assistant coach for defensive backs, is a two-time recipient of the NFL Bill Walsh Minority Internship, once with the Browns and once with the Dolphins.
So there's that. . . .

1. It will be on Pac-12 Bay Area according to the P12N's website. ESPN doesn't give a shit about that, of course.
2. The Pac-12 Network will be showing USC-Rice at 3pm and Wazzu-Idaho at 6:30pm right after (timing makes sense). Thus, the Pac-12 LA channel will likely also be showing USC-Rice at the time. Our game at 5pm is wedged right in between those 2.

The Stanford game follows the UC Davis at Cal game on the P12 Bay Area channel.

I subscribe to Fubo, which only carries the main Pac 12 Network.
Anyone know of a streaming service that carries Pac 12 Bay Area and provides a free month?

I use Sling and they have a free trial period. It now costs me $46.00 dollars a month but you can put it hold for months at a time.
