Updated Standings - thru December 27th

Well, it's starting to look like a runaway. Owen MacKim holds a 43 point lead over Emily Holub heading into today's action. There are still plenty of participants with Points Possible in the high 700's who can take him down.

Four huge games today will play a major part in settling things. Only 4% of participants picked Oklahoma to beat LSU. Likewise only 10.6% like Memphis and 15.9% like Iowa State. One upset can sway the tide in the other direction.

Enjoy a great day of college football. Unless you are on my authorized list of direct communicators, please don't talk to me after 7:56 PM tonight. If you have to ask whether you are on the list, then you are not on the list.
