Week 6 Recap
Last week started off pretty bad with USC losing to Washington on Thursday night, and only Drew picked Washington. With Oklahoma forgetting to show up and the Wizard of Manhattan pulling out more magic, the Big 12 had a couple of surprises, and only 1 person picked 4 out of the 5 conference games correctly. In the overall standings, the 2 lower ranked writers picked up the most points, so the gap between the top and bottom has started to shrink. First a look at the overall standings and how the writers have done each week.

As you can see, Hunter and Jonathan have done relatively well with the confidence points, having less wins than the person directly below them. Starting next week, we'll dive into some deeper stats that will really show how well each writer has done picking and assigning the points. In conference play, everyone had faith in the Red raiders again, placing high point values for the game against ISU.
