I'm thinking of changing the tie-breaker, or perhaps just awarding props to the entry with the longest streak of correct picks (starting with the New Mexico Bowl). What do you think the fair over/under on this, non-spread, streak would be?

FinsRule is 4-for-4 so far. Good Luck!

LOL - I'm 4 out of 4. Of course when I'm pure guessing.

Ayecarumba, where are your picks?
