Welcome to Week 9! Last week didn't go quite as planned for most of us, as only two participants had double digit wins this past week. One of those two was Chiefsfan_in_Tacoma, who had 11 victories and won the week. With that, he moves into the top spot in the standings, 1 game ahead of joe bob priddy.
Speaking of joe bob priddy, he won the bonus tiebreaker this week, being the only one to predict the Michigan State upset of Wisconsin. He also correctly picked the margin of score, predicting a 27-21 victory by the Spartans.
As for the guaranteed playoff spots, there is some serious contention near the middle of the pack, as HawkeyedFrog, wolfmanshowlforever, uncledougy, rebelfan1, and Jeremy Mauss are all fighting for the final two guaranteed playoff spots. Only three games seperate these contestants, so there will definitely be some serious competition at that area of the standings.
Standings and more after the jump!
