Rich Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 With @MOBomberFan 3 picks ahead of @TBURGESS and 3 games left in the season, @TBURGESS would need to pick all 3 remaining games correct and hope @MOBomberFan gets all wrong to tie. Picks this week need to be in by Saturday @ 2PM Standings below: bigg jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigg jay Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 I think @MOBomberFan should get 3DN's award voting privileges this year. Their best guesses are far behind at 57 correct picks, not even good enough for a spot in the top 10 here. No wonder Bluto makes his bets based on the MBB picks. 😂 BigBlueFanatic, Rich, Mark F and 2 others 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted November 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 I have all the Pick 'Ems spreadsheets going back to 2016 (the pick 'ems before that were run on a forum extension that stopped working, so I don't have easy access to that data). So, compiled a few stats from those years: Top 3 Finalists By Year 2016 Correct Picks Correct Percentage Cam 56 65.12% WinnipegGordo 55 63.95% TBURGESS 53 61.63% 2017 Correct Picks Correct Percentage bearpants 59 68.60% the watcher 58 67.44% TBURGESS 57 66.28% 2018 Correct Picks Correct Percentage Dicky 57 66.28% TBURGESS 55 63.95% Jacquie 53 61.63% Marshall 53 61.63% Rich 53 61.63% Tony Fresco 53 61.63% wayner 53 61.63% 2019 Correct Picks Correct Percentage bigg jay 69 80.23% wayner 67 77.91% rebusrankin 64 74.42% 2021 Correct Picks Correct Percentage Fox Creek AB Rider Fan 46 66.67% Rich 45 65.22% coach17 44 63.77% 2022 Correct Picks Correct Percentage Stickem 64 74.42% the watcher 62 72.09% Booch 61 70.93% bigg jay 61 70.93% 2023 Correct Picks Correct Percentage MOBomberFan 68 81.93% TBURGESS 65 78.31% Booch 63 75.90% This also means that depending on how @MOBomberFan picks in the remaining three games this year, he could set the record for the most picks and best correct percentage of all recorded years. He currently sits at 68 picks for 81.93%. Next best is @bigg jay in 2019 with 69 correct for 80.23%. I included winning percentage as it gives an indication of consistency in correct picks and it was also a shortened season in 2021 with 69 games instead of 86.

TrueBlue4ever Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 I really should try to play out an entire season just once instead of quitting in week 4 every year when I fall behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good an excuse as any. I'll join your bandwagon - should be expansive. Booch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCJenks Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 I am honored to even make the list at all, simply showing up means something... I thought I was doing well this year and got picks in every week then week 19 or 20 happened, too much life got in the way and I missed the week. Better than usual as I often have 2 or 3 bran fart weeks in which I forget. Rich, Thanks again for hosting this board and sending me the invite when you started it up.
