Can you be more specific? I just spot checked and it looks right to me.

In the seasons predictions tab my entry has 0.3 in the Northern Illinois column. What does this represent?

I mentioned above that the Season Predictions tab has not been updated yet.

@00Burdell

I checked the spreadsheet and apparently missed picking UNC. I dug up the thread but the poll closed Aug 15. Can you put me down for 0.2? Don't have a good vibe about this one.

 

[jacket67]

All picks must be submitted by 9 AM Saturday morning.

So people get to watch the UNC/VT game before they vote. Doesn't seem right.

uga 0.1

 

[Bleedingyella]

0.4 UNC

Beat duke .80

 

[JJacket]

Since we never were given the option to choose 1.0 the pole is fail. We have a 100% chance if beating KSU , not 90%

I thought we had a 100% chance of beating Citadel until e we didn’t. I’d say 90% is correct.

Still a fail. The probability of beating anyone, according to the moron who set up the pole, could never exceed .9 total, and that would be if everyone voted .9.
If you put the 1.0 in there, we might have ended up with a .91 chance of beating KSU. Pole fail

And there is a big difference in the team we are fielding now vs then.

By the same token, is the lack of an option to choose 0.0 also a fail? Which teams are you going to give the Jackets zero chance of beating?

 

[Techbert]

@coit can you check @cbee's picks?

Cuz I cannot believe that anyone would make the effort to answer the poll for every single game and still be that miserable of a cuss.

GT never has a 0% chance of winning
