After my first difficult week, hopefully time for some bounceback.
Although i called the Troy game correctly (see Week 5 thread). Am switching my pick on Nevada/LA Tech game after seeing Nevada put up 60+ points last week.
Also, a few other comments ...
Took VA Tech at home, but BC is playing well and I think Fla St keeps sliding.... I think Nebraska, Tex A&M and Kansas are frauds so far, but I think Kansas squeaks one out this week.... welcome back to the living Mich St, lets see if you make it two straight (I knew I should have taken them last week, argh) .....also took Purdue in an upset .... I hope Stanford wins, but took the home team as Ore St plays well at home .... picked one upset in Tennessee over GA and am guessing Tebow doesn't play, so I took LSU.

All in all, a pretty nice week for me. even though I botched the Conference USA games almost completely, still went 42-13 overall.
Recapping the season so far:
Running total:
Week 1: 64-14
Week 2: 46-15
Week 3: 43-21
Week 4: 47-14
Week 5: 33-20
Week 6: 42-13
Total 275-97
Week 7 to be up in a bit.
You've done this before, haven't you?
How’re you doing in comparison to previous years?

I’ve tried to do it in previous years, but never could make it through a full season by picking each week.
Since I did the research for the “dream” scenario and my research involved in coming up with my formula for ranking all 120 teams week to week, my knowledge has gotten way better, and I think my picks reflect that.
If I had just picked the teams in previous years without doing that type of research, my numbers would be much worse I believe.
