Update after college football playoff

Roll Tide.  So fucking sick of them.  The day they and the Patriots are done ruining football for me can't come too soon. 

The sum of this isn't really who it helped, but who it hurt.  Munez and Folden are the only ones who lost.  Otherwise it's 35 points to everyone else. 

The 10 points in the pick'em for Alabama go to everyone but Gary, Munez, colin, shawn, and john. 

The bowl pick'em bonus goes as follows.

Rob 30
Hale 20
Joe & Jim 5 points each (tied for 3rd)


The pro pick'em last week was led by Colin with 3 correct.  Most people had 2.  a couple with 1 and 0.  Two points per correct prediction here.  Here are your points gained since last week.

Rob 79
Hale 69
Joe 54
Jim 52
Eplin 49
Adam 47
Colin 41
Shawn 39
Gary 39
John 35
Folden 12
Munez 0

Adding all of this onto last week's totals.

1 Joe 902
2 Jim 874
3 Eplin 865
4 Hale 833
5 Rob 818
6 Gary 808
7 Folden 753
8 Munez 731
9 Colin 711
10 Adam 704
11 John 693
12 Shawn 656

Obviously the big winners this week are Rob and Hale.  Gary falls from 3rd to 6th.  So what's still in play?  Who still has a chance? 

7th - 12th are clearly out. 

6th - Gary would need a ton to go right to jump in the standings, and I dont' think he could pass Eplin due to like predictions.  I think Getting just about everything right and Jim falling apart could get Gary to 3rd.

5th - Rob helped himself out a lot by getting the Bowl bonus, but he'll need more help.  Hunt winning Rookie of the Year would be big.  He'd also need Pittsburgh to lose the championship and NE to lose the AFC championship.  That plus a big let down by Jim & Eplin could boost rob to 2nd, or a letdown from either could get him to 3rd.

4th - Hale's in a tough spot.  Because his predictions are so similar to Jim and Joe's it may be impossible for him to jump any higher than 3rd, unless Fournette won rookie of the year.  3rd is still very much in play for him though.

3rd  - Eplin is probably in the best position to catch Joe at this point.  He'd need Pittsburgh to win the championship and Atlanta to lose the NFC championship to make the big jump.  But, even with Pittsburgh winning the Superbowl he'd still have a chance. 

2nd - Jim may have reached his peak.  He and Joe have the same available points left.  Give or take a surprise with some individual awards.  Jim may need to just try and hold off Eplin. 

1st Joe - It's probably about 85% that Joe wins the title.
