Armed Forces Bowl results:

Anchors Aweigh! ... for those who picked MTSU and their cheap-shot artists. Redmusky and StPaulHusker each had the closest prediction, although they came about it in opposite ways. Lil' Red also collected a game-high four points.

Not a lot of changes in the standings, although Redmusky is on a nice run, scoring 16 points in the last five games.

 
Gator Bowl results:

How 'bout them Huskers??!?!? Great win, fellas.

HuskerShark had the pick exactly right. NUance, Redmusky, TAKODA, Chaddyboxer, GM_Tood, TheRedCarver, StPaulHusker and NebraskaHarry also picked up a game-maximum 25 points. Considering the leaders were just over 50 points coming into the day, 25 points on one game is huge.

Nice work guys.

Rose Bowl results:

Redmusky and NebraskaHarry had the best picks while StPaulHusker and Bye Bye Big XII also go the maximum 15 points.

For the day, NUance extended his lead by picking up maximum points on the two most weighted games of the bowl season so far. Redmusky had the best day, picking up maximum points in three games to stay on NUance's heels. C N Red moves up to third as one of few to score positive points in each game today. NebraskaHarry and StPaulHusker also made big jumps up the leaderboard.

 
Thanks Mav. Now I don't mean to be that guy but I was just looking at some of the scores and there are some things not quite right. Not sure it will make a difference, but just letting ya know something may be wrong with spreadsheet.

For instance, I don't think I did as well as you have me. Going off the scoring

MOV

0-2 : 5

3-5 : 4

6-9 : 3

10-14 : 2

15-20 : 1

21+ : 0

And Mavric pulls into the lead. Congrats! I'm guessing we're around a third of the way done, what with weighting and all. Somewhere around 120 points will win this thing.
After the Armed Forces Bowl, there are 200 possible points remaining out of the 300 we started with so you were right there.

 
Music City Bowl results:

Chaddyboxer guesses it perfectly and knapplc, JJHusker1, Redmusky, Bye Bye Big XII, TAKODA, Lil' Red, StPaulHusker, TheRedCarver and GM_Tood all collect five points as well. The first time in awhile that there weren't any negative points to hand out. Also the first game in six that was a single-digit margin of victory. Hopefully some more exciting games are coming our way.

With so many good guesses, not a lot of changes in the standings.

Two more games today, both being Double Point games.
