Week 7 College Football Survivor Game

[Cycsk]

That, or maybe they just thought Tulsa isn't that good.

It's not like they picked ISU over Alabama...

BOOOO Mulligans!

Might it help if we called them "Week 1 Cyclonigans?"

[IHavNoCyCash]

So anyone who picks KSU against ISU this week is automatically out, no matter who wins that game?

if I pick Iowa State and they win do I get to come back?

[michaelrr1]

They deserve to be out, . . . but we will probably still let them play. Seriously, we just gave mulligans to two players who exhibited Cyclone loyalty above and beyond the call of duty. Just let it go and enjoy the rest of the game. If nothing else, try to gain an even greater sense of accomplishment when you beat them even with their mulligans.

No, "we" didn't give mulligans to anyone. From the responses, "we" don't agree with it at all.

Certainly, if you did so in Week 1. Now, who knows? Seriously, I don't want to make it any worse for those of you who are so bothered by the Week 1 Cyclonigans, so despite your Cyclone-worthiness, I probably wouldn't grant you a mulligan. Plus, Iowa State already lost. Now, if we had beaten Tech, that could have set up some very interesting Cyclonigan opportunities.

I granted a mulligan to the two players who picked Iowa State in Week 1 against Tulsa when we weren't favored. One was oskyclone. I thought it made sense for a game on the Cyclone Fanatic site even though it generated the ire of some players. Of course, it oskyclone goes on to win, the accomplishment will be "marked by an asterisk."

Isn't the goal each week to pick a team that will win that week, but loose soon there after? So essentially you're giving mulligans to people who thought ISU would beat Tulsa, but loose to Iowa? For shame!

So the point of this Elimination game isn't to win, but to not pick against Iowa State? Do I have that right?

Hmmm. Good point. Hadn't thought about it that way.

so shouldn't people who picked Kansas St. get a mulligan too since they said they would lose against ISU?

Here are the games for Week 7 (based on the ESPN website listings adjusted for CT). You may pick any team that is in bold because they are unbeaten and are playing an FBS team. Please post a reply if you find an error or discrepancy.

Alabama beats Missouri , big time

Saturday, October 13^th, 10am
Louisville at Pittsburgh

Saturday, October 13^th, 11am or later
Kansas State at Iowa State
Syracuse at Rutgers
Akron at Ohio
Alabama at Missouri
West Virginia at Texas Tech
Stanford at Notre Dame
Oregon State at Brigham Young
UTSA at Rice
Florida at Vanderbilt
South Carolina at LSU
Ohio State at Indiana
Tennessee at Mississippi State
Texas A&M at Louisiana Tech

We knew that at least 3 unbeaten teams would lose last week because they were playing each other, but I don't think anybody expected 7 to lose in the same week (FSU, Ga, LSU, NW, Texas, TCU, TT). The options are closing fast.
