*** Official CatsIllustrated Stupid Underdog Picks Contest - Week 1 ***

*** There were games going on when you made your pick. Try not to do this. Makes it tough on me. Sure wish Rivals had never changed the format for deleted posts. Back in the day, you could make your pick at any time up to the kick off of your game. They got rid of the deleted post marker and then I had no way to keep things straight except to record picks on game days.

I picked a Friday game on Thursday.
 
Although none of us were smart enough to pick against FSU, @TuckyFB did get the most points for picking Nevada. I'll try to get the next contest up quickly so look for it.

I'll look at it.
I found it. My program didn't recognize Southern Cal as USC. IOW it wasn't in my sillynames file that fixes those things up. I'll update both soon. I didn't notice that it didn't find your pick. There were a lot of exception posts that made it hard to see.
 
Florida International is showing up just as Florida for week 2. I'm guessing multiple people are going to pick Florida based on being a dog in that game.

Can you explain further? I see that @gamecockcat has picked Florida even though I can't see Florida in my list of games as an underdog for Week 2. This thread is Week 1 which is still pinned. I tried to signal @Deeeefense to pin Week 2 but that hasn't happened. I see Florida International listed in Week 2. I don't see Florida listed by itself. They are playing Samford and I guess it didn't have the odds listed for that game.

Either International wasn't showing up below the two teams before or I'm just an idiot because I looked at that game multiple times and never noticed it using my cellphone. Sorry for the hassle...
