Two pairs of eyes are better than one, so I'd really love if someone confirmed my results in the previous post and I will make it official tomorrow, but here is what I have for results:

WizardofNothing: 18 + 8 = 26 Points
Scottimus1: 16 + 10 = 26 Points
PlayYourCardsRight: 14 + 8 = 22 Points
EdCollins: 13 + 3 = 16 Points
Mission146: 13 + 9 = 22 Points
AyeCarumba: 12 + 6 = 18 Points
Genwyzgy: 12 + 4 = 16 Points
JohnnyQ: 12 + 11 = 23 Points
JW17: 12 + 7 = 19 Points
SM777: DISQUALIFIED (12 Points)---SB
Wudged: 12 + 8 = 20 Points
JML24: 11 + 10 = 21 Points
SOOPOO: 11 + 11 = 22 Points
TheoHuxtable: DISQUALIFIED (11 Points)---SB
Aluisio: DISQUALIFIED (10 Points)
BeachBumBabs: 10 + 12 = 22 Points

Greetings!

Let's put those in the right (Unofficial) Order:

Scottimus1 = 26 Points
WizardofNothing = 26 Points
JohnnyQ = 23 Points
BeachBumBabs: 22 Points
SOOPOO: 22 Points
PlayYourCardsRight: 22 Points
Mission146: 22 Points
JML24: 21 Points
Wudged: 20 Points
Steeldco: 19 Points
JW17: 19 Points
JohnZimbo: 19 Points
WatchmeWin: 18 Points
AyeCarumba: 18 Points
GWAE: 17 Points
EdCollins: 16 Points
GenWyzgy: 16 Points
Zourah: 14 Points
SM777: DISQUALIFIED (SB) 12 Points
TheoHuxtable: DISQUALIFIED (SB) 11 Points
Paradigm: DISQUALIFIED (SB) 10 Points
OdiousGambit: DISQUALIFIED (Conference) 10 Points
MidwestAP: DISQUALIFIED (Conference) 9 Points
Miplet: DISQUALIFIED (Conference) 9 Points
Wizard: DISQUALIFIED (Conference) 5 Points

If these results are confirmed, then I would like to congratulate our CO-WINNERS, Scottimus1 & WizardofNothing!!! There were four players who did NOT submit a SB prediction along with their WildCard Picks, and absent any evidence to the contrary, Scottimus1 & WizardofNothing were two of them!

As a result, the only way to resolve it is to declare a tie and divide the $200 (total) prize in half with $100 going to Scottimus1 and $100 going to WizardofNothing.

One prize that has no controversy is the, 'You Suck,' prize which overwhelmingly goes to Zourah, who managed only 14 out of 42 possible points. Zourah is no stranger to lousy Picks given his documented performance throughout the college football season that saw him finish under .500, his below 45% performance in the regular Picks game and missing both SB Lines in this competition. In fact, the only thing that can rival the ineptitude of Zourah's Football Picks is, perhaps, the play of the Missouri Tigers this most recent college football season.

He still gets $25, though, and I actually believe he was trying to intentionally MISS both SB sides.

I'd be interested in knowing what Paradigm would have done, as he could have well finished worse than Zourah. I'm also interested in what SM777 and TheoHuxtable would have done because either of them going NE/OVER could have made things really interesting. SM777 would have only needed six questions to tie and TheoHuxtable would have needed seven.

Anyway, congratulations again (Unofficially) to Scottimus1, WizardofNothing and Zourah! You shall receive PM's tomorrow (when the results become Official) discussing payment of your prizes.

Looks good. I only see one small error. JohnZimbo had ten points this weekend, as you correctly gave him. So he ended up with a total of 19 points for the contest, not 18. (9 + 10)

Here's a copy of the playoff spreadsheet, if anyone wants a copy:

Well – I went with what I honestly believed would happen in the Super Bowl but logically I figured that was my best chance to win the "you suck "prize because I am really bad at this NFL stuff!

I will say that the Missouri football team, while disappointing us this year, did win two of the last three games so we are hopeful for next year!

Congratulations to the winners! Also, thank you to the generous prize sponsors (Mission146 and PlayYourCardsRight), and Ed for doing the very helpful spreadsheet.

These contests are a lot of fun, and made the playoffs even more exciting. Thank you for all the work.
