idea: Nuts Kicked picks 5 games that he disagrees with SNOWBRAG on the score of. those 5 games have to be a change in the winner based on the spread as it is when the bet is made.

so, OSU is a -2.5 favorite over Clemson and SNOWBRAG has OSU winning by 4. Nuts Kicked takes Clemson +2.5 as one of his 5 games. mocat goes with SNOWBRAG and OSU -2.5

loser has his name changed to "Timhawk's BFF"

No, I think the ACC is a mediocre conference and the SNOWBRAG scores all look pretty good to me. Mocat thinks the ACC is a really good conference because the SNOWBRAG rankings say they should be really good. Really good conferences just don't go 2-9 in bowl games, though. My bet would be that the ACC wins 4 or less games this bowl season.

SNOWBRAG puts the ACC at 3rd out of the 5 major conferences, let's not get carried away. Which conference would you put in front of it? Big 10? Big 12? AAC? I don't think so.

Mocat, can you recalculate the average ranking for each conference removing the best team from each?

Yes. Why tho? Shouldn't I take out the worst team as well?

Ok yea that sounds right,  my thought was that it would give a truer average rating per team.

I took out the best and worst team from each conference. The Big 10 jumped the ACC (no more #1 Florida State) and the Sun Belt jumped from worst to 8th (no more #126 Georgia State)

1. SEC .764
2. P12 .755
3. B10 .745
4. ACC .738
5. B12 .725
6. AAC .686
7. MWC .674
8. SBC .673
9. CUSA .663
10. IND .660
11. MAC .656

I revised the Cincinnati-UNC score based on all the data from the 5 bowl games so far. Now Cincinnati 26, UNC 25
1 more loss for the ACC!  :driving:

wtf does your conference affiliation have to do with how you match up against a certain team? what's wrong with you?

L Clemson vs Ohio State
L Virginia Tech vs UCLA
L Duke vs Texas A&M
L Miami vs Louisville
L Boston College vs Arizona
L Syracuse vs Minnesota
L Maryland vs Marshall
L Pittsburgh vs Bowling Green

which one(s) of the above would you change, you weirdo?

Maryland,Pitt,BC, and maybe Clemson.

You asked who we would change, I answered.

I'm not super confident in any of them, though.

I had a glorious dream last night that the Big XII won all their bowl games.  I was sitting in my living room, drinking Pabst with Willie and friends.  Glorious, I tell ya, GLORIOUS!
