Congratulations to co-champs Josh and Potter for winning the Michigan State week Scores Only contest in Week 5.
We had 58 participants for the week, including 1 new entrant and 4 returning participants from prior weeks. 59 of the 60 picked Michigan to win, with Old Soldier selecting the Spartans. The average prediction was 26.81-11.79 Michigan. The median prediction was 27-10.
Both Josh and Potter were pretty close to the feel and flavor of the game with their matching 17-13 predictions (if only the Hail Mary or various other plays had worked). These predictions left them 8 combined points off the final result and gave them a comfortable win over 3rd place finisher DBCooper, who has been close in several contests. DBCooper had it 19-11 Michigan and a deviation of 12. cjb (20-17) was one point further back with a score of 13 for 4th place.
We had a 3 way tie for 5th place starting with Old Soldier and his prediction of a 21-17 Spartan win. Also in 5th with scores of 14 were Purblue (24-14 Michigan) and blueinaz1 (20-10 Michigan).
Rounding out the top 10 were Lods, Jerry, jukebox and schadenfreude with scores of 15.
The median differential for the weeks was 21 (9 vs Florida, 23 vs Cincinnati, AFA 13, Purdue 11.5); the average was 21.29.
