Print....sort of. I do believe that Grrr.... cannot be overtaken at the bottom of the barrel thanks to the SMU/Under result of today. So with 23 (current) wins, congrats on the accomplishment.
At the other end of the pile, mizzou2396 has pulled ahead with his 41st win of the contest, taking a one game lead over a group of four others. Three of them (optiger, cchstove and smbz5b) can still win it and all differ from one another at some point in their last four. The other is BYUHusker, who the best they will be able to do will be tie due to the lack of remaining variation in picks. Behind them is another group of four at 39 wins, but of them, only TigerBartender has a shot to gain a tie if he finishes perfect. I will lay out all the potential finishes in the next update before the final game.
Speaking of ties, I suppose I will try to break them by looking at the wins of just the "spread" picks. If that does not dictate a winner, I will probably just call it a tie.
Two more days, and just two more games left before the season comes to an end. The contest is still sitting at just over 49 percent. Right now, I believe the remaining majority picks are Northern Illinois, Over, LSU and Under. If that comes to pass, it will leave us TWO GAMES UNDER .500 on the season. Funny stuff.
As always, you can check my math or access your picks and all the totals (located at the bottom of the page) by clicking on this link.

OT but will entertain you
Copper Wire Discovered
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year outside of New York City, New York scientists found traces of copper cable dating back 100 years. They came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago.
Not to be outdone by the New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed, a Los Angeles , California archaeologist dug …to a depth of 20 feet somewhere just outside Oceanside. Shortly after, a story in the LA Times read: " California archaeologists report a finding of 200 year old copper cable, have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network a hundred years earlier than the New Yorkers."
One week later, a local newspaper in Ironton, Mo. reported the following: “After digging down about 30 feet deep in his pasture near the community of Pilot Knob, Bubba, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that 300 years ago, Missouri had already gone wireless”.
Just makes a person proud to be from Missouri

looks like there can still be a tie for the gutter
if Grrr hits on all 4 remaining possibilities, Ryan the Phillips will tie at 27
