After moving into 2nd place last week, odu09 is wasting no time in making a big move against our leader, UM Ftball Tiger: He differs on _ALL SIX_ of Week 16's initial games (all four CUSA games tonight and the first two Top 25 games on Saturday morning).

We all pretty much agree on the following seven games, so aside from perfect-margin and bonus question points, any chance for slimming UM's 297-point cushion will come in these first six games.

Good luck to all!

Well, THAT didn't take long. Second-place odu09 went 0-4 on Thursday (and 1 went 1-3), while our fearless leader (UM Ftball Tiger) and #4 & #5 BlueRaider95 and Tiki Owl were all undefeated (though none got any perfect-score 50s).

As a result, BlueRaider jumped up to 2nd, I dropped down to 3rd and odu fell all the way to 4th, just a point ahead of Tiki. Most important is that UM has increased his lead ro 313 points!

(( UPDATE: I see now that WKU's overtime win is not yet scored. When it is, Tiki Owl will vault over odu09 & I into 3rd place. WTG, Tiki!! ))

We are not worthy! :-)

There are only two more contested games this week: Saturday's Penn State vs Iowa (odu09 has PSU) and Seton Hall & Marquette (odu & Blue Raider predict Seton Hall to win on the road). After that, there's general agreement at the top of the leaderboard (except BlueRaider likes WKU over North Texas).

Bonus Question (fewest offensive rebounds) leaders are UTSA-6, Marshall-7 and FAU-8. odu09 is the only one in the current Top 12 to have any of these. (He picked FAU-Show.)

Good luck to all!
