Congrats to our champion, ezsweezy!!! He picked 59% of games correctly, and posted a majority of correct picks in 11 of 14 weeks. Since we are ranking by number of wins, Jon Denton and Wahoo in PA tied for second, 3 wins behind the leader. Awesome work, guys!

Finally, here's look at how we did as a group this week. (The Thanksgiving Day start made this a quiet finish) -
| Game | Virginia (-1) @ Virginia Tech | Georgia Tech @ Georgia (-12.5) | Kentucky @ Louisville (-13) | South Carolina @ Clemson (-4.5) | Syracuse @ Boston College (-11) | NC State @ UNC (-6.5) | Florida @ Florida State (-7.5) | Pittsburgh @ Miami (-10) | Wake Forest @ Duke (-19) |
| Winner | Virginia Tech | Georgia Tech | Kentucky | Clemson | Boston College | NC State | Florida | Pittsburgh | Duke |
| Total Record: | 3-29 | 25-8 | 8-25 | 14-19 | 23-9 | 5-27 | 14-19 | 15-18 | 17-16 |
| % Correct | 9.4% | 75.8% | 24.2% | 42.4% | 71.9% | 15.6% | 42.4% | 45.5% | 51.5% |
As a group, we picked just 43% of games correctly this week, but that was heavily skewed by our confidence in the Hoos. UVA finished 7-5 against the spread on the season after a 5-0 start, so we can't use that as an excuse for our below .500 performance as a group.
Better luck next year, guys.
