Near as i can tell if Georgia wins it will be down to 3 participants.
I see five; two can still pick Cincy, and three can pick UTSA. One of the people has UTSA today, so they need UTSA to win in order to pick Cincy next week. Looks like it's going to be something of a tie.

Feels like this year we've had more people making past week 10 than before. Kudos to those still in it, and major thanks to @CycloneRulzzz for managing the game for us!

Just wondering if anyone wasted 12 weeks of work by only having Georgia left who plays a FCS team next week?

I gave everyone who was leaving Georgia for next week about Georgia's situation next week. Hate me for it if you must but not all are as hardcore about this game as I and I didn't want to see people go out like that.

It's your game, but seems to me listing not being able to pick a team that plays a FCS should of been their only warning.

Here is who I have still alive. Not sure how to proceed with this. Never had to deal with a tie let alone an 8 way tie. Tiebreakers have been done in the past. Should the team you have left should win to qualify to advance to tiebreakers although both these teams have tough matchups and could both lose. I don't know. All I know is there is going to be alot of anger and resentment my way. I will go with the majority says.

Who has UTSA left: @michaelrr1 @Cyforce @flipper @frackincygy @cyclonespiker33 @mikeiastat

I do a similar game with some friends, tiebreakers we use: pick winners for all P5 championship games, pick winners for all games involving undefeated teams.

Honestly it's more disappointment then anger that 11 weeks in you chose to help the ones that didn't take into consideration the rules which you posted every single week. That said coming up with a tiebreaker after the fact seems artificial. If your remaining team wins next week I'd say you're a Co-Champion. Thanks for doing this Rulzzz it is appreciated.

You gave warnings more as a friendly player than a Commissioner. KC and others are known to help folks out when they make a faux pas. Anyone could have done it and someone else might have done so if you hadn't. No one can ever question your intentions.

How about making them pick the margin of victory as a tiebreaker? Closest wins.

What about worst (or best) combined record for the season picks as a tie breaker? Regardless of the outcome, @CycloneRulzzz I appreciate the effort you put into making this game a blast to follow (and play) all season long!

I switched my pick to Georgia last week because I realized they were playing FCS this week. I have no problems with a friendly reminder to the others. This is just a fun game to me so you won't get any resentment here.

I'm calling myself the champion in my sig, assuming UTSA wins this week, regardless of tiebreaker so do whatever you want boss.

Based solely on the amount of work you put into this all season, I hope nobody gets on your case about your decisions.

I think most people think fcs games are all before conference play. I think this thing the SEC does having their teams play these random fcs games in the middle of conference season is stupid.

Definitely would reduce (if not eliminate) late-season situations for the pool if SEC did "normal" FCS scheduling. First six weeks, people have plenty of teams to choose, so it's unnoticeable and rarely gets in the way of a pick.
