This is a hard one for me. I would be shocked at a blowout either way but I think JMU makes less mistakes and home field helps them.

JMU 25
App 24

For the last three weeks now, my picks have been perfectly opposite of the outcome so here goes:

JMU will rip our hearts out on a game ending play.

Fingers Crossed.

Scorekeeper, how about giving all those choosing JMU to win 100 points to start with!

I'm just going to put an asterisk beside anyone who edits their post after game start, it's not my prerogative to play gatekeeper and try to determine what was changed.

T4pizza is trying to take my last place crown.... No sir...that's all mine.

[Bigdaddyg1]

Help my old brain (older today). How can someone pick against App, App wins and they get more points than LOYAL fans who picked the winner?

I have had that safely for a couple of weeks now, you're slipping Todd.

[BambooRdApp]

Changing to the Modified Stableford Scoring System has really impacted my performance this year over last year. I will study that in the off-season

There is no bonus for picking correctly. I doubt I'll do it next year due to the perceived lack of interest so someone else can pick it up and run with their formula. I tried to figure out how big C used to do it back in the day but I could never find it so I just went with the simplest formula I could find and it still takes forever to manually enter everything.
