Mountain West Connection Pick Em': Week 14

by rebelfan1 on Dec 1, 2011 7:25 PM PST

The regular season is over! We are now in the play-in/seeding week and that means we have one more week before the actual playoffs start. This week isn't techinically the playoffs, but it isn't technically the regular season. It's considered a play-in week because that's exactly what it is. For those of you who haven't secured a playoff spot already, you have a chance at getting the final playoff spot.

In order to receive the final playoff spot, you have to have the best record this week out of everyone who has not already secured a spot. That also means that those of you who are quite behind in the standings also have a shot at getting the final playoff spot. Since qualification for this spot is not based on your regular season record, you could have missed most of the season and still be eligible to receive the spot. All you have to do is submit your picks to have a chance.

Speaking of which, I need to let you know who finished in the Top 7 and received guaranteed spots.

1. joe bob priddy
2. HawkeyedFrog
3. Chiefsfan_in_Tacoma
4. rebelfan1
5. coronabronc
6. Jeremy Mauss
7. wolfmanshowlforever

If you have a guaranteed spot, don't forget that you should pick this week too. The seeding for the playoffs still aren't set and the results from this week can alter the seeding for the playoffs. If you want to be in good standing once the playoffs come around next week, then you should be sure to submit this week's picks.

As for last week, Chiefsfan_in_Tacoma won the Bonus/Tiebreaker by predicting the highest margin of victory for LSU over Arkansas.

As always, the tables are after the jump for you make your inferences. Oh, and this week's picks are also after the jump.
