Five games through and no one will be perfect, but no one will be winless either (I was more worried about the latter than the former). I am not going to update this after every day of bowl games, but I will get a couple of updates in per week so you can track your progress.
As for the format...well...this is what you get when I mess around with excel for about an hour. Not the prettiest thing, but it will work.

Holy cow
I can’t believe I fared that well… I’m sure Bill will end up smoking me but for now it feels good to be in 2nd. Of course it would feel mo betta if I A) Remembered who the hell I picked and 2) were in 1st ;-)

man, I need more Rock M time in my day...
I can’t keep up with you guys! But, I did send those to add to my chances of losing a free tee shirt.
And hey, happy Hanukkah to you. Are you visiting the folks?

thanks...
no…was up in MN for Thanksgiving and the folks were down here a couple of weekends ago to work on the condo they just bought down here. And besides…hanukkah is pretty much a made-up holiday :-)

Not a pride of preternaturally predictive prognosticators
First, we’re not lions, but I was feeling alliterative. Second, 6-4 has me tied for third. Wow.

As a whole...
…I assume people’s %‘s will go up once we start getting to games where people might actually know something about the teams. Most aren’t obviously going to know much difference between Southern Miss and Troy, but Texas and Ohio State, on the other hand, are more in people’s wheelhouses…

Weak...
I was high on the leaderboard all of last year, but it seems I pulled a Clemson out of the gate.
So, I went 2-8 in the brand of football I supposedly know and love, but managed to win a parlay yesterday on NFL games I know nothing about.
BTW, how ironic would it be if the winner the pick ’em and a shiny new RMN T-Shirt is the proprietor of Tomahawk Nation?

I'd give the T-Shirt to a law prof of mine
Huge Missouri fan. I do enjoy your site a lot, however, and really forward to swapping #’s in the offseason.

Also,
bring it.
In my betting fanpost on the site (58% over 400+ picks), I took the over in the SoMiss game (aka should be 10-0). Damn quickly filling out this form.

I don't recollect, Senator
I blame my poor performance on month old adult beverages and cold pizza. The heavy medication probably doesn’t help much, either, but I’m not complaining about that.
