Looks pretty good dapolla. How did you feel about how you fared?

Considering how weird this season was, I'm pretty impressed with myself, I must say. By midway through the season, the only pick I was totally confident in was Hawai'i, based upon their terribly easy schedule. June Jones said last night on ESPN that Washington (!) was their toughest opponent.

I was especially surprised that I picked everything right in the ACC, considering how weird that was this year. My major disappointment was that I said not only that TCU would win the MWC, but specifically that BYU would NOT win.

I guess that, with all things being equally weird, everything evened itself out (except the SEC East...)
