first game is tomorrow at 19:30 EST - but I thought I'd give you 24h+

The third week of the season would continue to see a number of games postponed and cancelled meaning that for this weekend's predictions we would left with only ten games. Both Marshall and Pittsburgh would claim victories over Top 25 teams. It looked as though last week's winner Juice was on for another week at the top when Liberty beat WKU - in which Juice was the only person to make this pick, but ultimately they would miss out by being the the only person who believed North Texas would beat SMU - they were wrong, of course.

The person who would really struggle this round would by MyPrerogative - who because of three games have been called off would only manage to claim five wins to their name. Our winner though this week claims eight victories only picking wrong twice, with no one bar one favouring Liberty whilst the outcome of Wake Forest at NC State had always been expected to go either way. The winner of Week 3 and the the new holder of the Weekly Prediction belt: @Shania Twain!

After three weeks of predictions Juice is still out overall leader with Christian Cage just behind her. Shania Twain's 8-2 performance though have moved them into having a 70% winning record and this week's prediction winner is now two winner behind 1st place. Hollywood and MyPrerogative have swapped positions in the table, but the league is still close enough that no one is getting lost in the wind yet.

I am 100% obligated to favour Mark Stoops Kentucky Wildcats this week over Auburn - I honestly can't believe Auburn at ranked top ten. My gamble is going to have to be Tulsa beating Arkansas State.

GO TULSA!

On a side not good luck to everyone this round - I hope everyone is enjoying this.

The fourth week of the season only saw two two games being called, and we hope to include both these games at a later dater. The shock of the round was most certainly the Mississippi Bulldogs who claimed victory over LSU - as soon as this result was confirmed it automatically meant that none other our field would be able to achieve a perfect streak for the week.

Yours truly feel that she is able to offer insights into good picks to make - however, Juice got a slap his week as she was the only person to believe Kentucky could beat Auburn, which simply didn't happy. Her other hot pick never happened because the game was called off and too make the situation worse, she became the first person to not make a complete selection as no team was picked in the Texas vs. Texas Tech game.

Reminder: If you fail to pick a team before the deadline - it will be marked down as a loss.

A special mention goes out to MyPrerogative who despite finished at the bottom of the weekly standings for the second week in a row went 14-7, which many would argue was a strong performance for anyone on a given week. Apart from our weekly winner (which I will get onto shortly) the difference between them was one victory. With HoHo and Juice posting 17-4 and Shania and Hollywood post 16-5, although it is clear that some of the selection choices do make you wonder?

We've already mention Juice, but Hollywood had favoured Troy over BYU - strange? HoHo chose South Alabama over UAB - odd? And Shania picked - well actually you could argue that Shania didn't actually make any risky bets at the Tennessee vs. South Carolina would end at a very close margin.

Nonetheless, our winner this week went 19-2 for the week, with only LSU and South Carolina be marked down as losses for the week. What also must be noted is this person was the only person to pick Tulane over Southern Miss, which ending up paying dividends.
The winner of Week 4 and the the new holder of the Weekly Prediction belt: @Christian Cage

The results from week four have result in a new overall points leader with Christian now taking the lead with a one win advantage over his nearest rival Juice. One has to wonder if Juice failing to make a selection is going to haunt them forever? The amount of games that were played in week four, means that the number of wins have massively increased and in turns no one has a percentage lower that 0.600 at this stage in the season. No one is being left behind yet, although both Hollywood and and My Prerogative are going to needed to be careful to make sure that the points leader doesn't start leading them by 10+ wins, over catching up could prove problematic.
