2022 Pick 'Em

[Jack o' Diamonds]

Funny. Can you imagine if I won top prize? Every damn one of you would accuse me of cheating.

We'll probably accuse you of cheating no matter who wins.. So there's that....

You can change any pick up to 30 minutes before kickoff.

Are you willing to divulge what site(s) you use as the basis for the point spreads?

Do the spreads change at any point after being initially set?

1. What difference does it make?
2. No.

Because if the spreads come from a site with a reliable track record, then there won't be as much need for independent research. Won't matter much for Week One but the spread will be critical when we start having more competitive matchups.

You mean we are supposed to do research?

Not "we," just me. I strongly discourage everyone else from doing any.

Ox sets the spreads based on his opinions. It’s often not even in the ballpark with the betting sites.
It’s really no big deal, as we’re all picking based on the same spread.

But I was told no maff.

Pardon me while I go revisit my picks.

That's actually not true at all. The only one I really skew drastically is the UF one, because we're so biased here. I want players to actually think twice before automatically taking UF. I've got UF favored 9.5 in Week 1.

Spreads come from here - I wouldn't be able to pull all of these out of my ass, I need some kind of guide. Most of them are either right on or within a point of the spread when I do them. This is what I use:

So you’re admitting you just went 9 points against the spread in our first game, but I what I posted wasn’t true?

Based on the way the picks are going I detect a hint of a slight bias against FSU as well.

Im trying to compute this because I swear part of my rationale for picking any of the UF games this season has a heavy influence of the shade ox is going to throw if I dont pick UF yet after reading the above its almost like he is trying hard to make us not pick UF so he will be able to put us in his concentration camp.

It’s taken you this long to realize this?

Are you this effing stupid? I was very clear that I skew the UF game on purpose, asshat. You claim I skew all the games.

Why would I give a damn who picks who? If I kept the line the way it was, with Utah slightly favored, 100% of the effing picks would be UF. If everyone picks the same damn team, that's a wasted game. I want it as close to 50/50 as possible.
