• The Florida Gators are introducing new alternative uniforms this week.  They appear to have drawn inspiration from a real alligator and a gator halloween costume:

WEEK SIX RESULTS

• WEEK SIX WINNER:  Cody Miller.  We had 7 people go 6-0.  Cody won the week with his 129 points.
• The group winning percentage and lock winning percentages were back above 50%:  51.1% and 50.4%, respectively.  It is the third week in a row that the lock winning percentage was worse than the overall winning percentage.
• 42 people scored 100 points or more, which is the highest total since week 2.
• The group majority was 10-5.
• Underdogs received the majority of the picks in three games, and they were all ATS winners:  West Virginia, Texas A&M and Utah.
• We have a new leader:  Jeffrey Szul.  He jumped from 22nd to 1st.
• Dane Karr was the only person from the Week Five Top Ten to score at least 80 points.
• Only four people have a 6-0 lock record:  Tim Andrews, Gary Mathews, David Dennis and Aaron Aulgur.  Tim is the highest ranked player (32nd place).
• Tony Juan has the worst overall record:  9-27, 0-6.  If he would’ve only faded his own picks, he’d be in 1st place…with a 2 game lead over 2nd.

WEEK FIVE RESULTS

  • The group majority was only 5-10.
  • The underdog received the majority of the picks in 4 games.  They were all ATS losers:  Iowa State, Duke, Vanderbilt and Iowa.

  • Nine people have a 5-0 lock record.
  • Two weeks ago, Katherine Taber was in 237th place.  She is in 5th place now.
