Stampede Blue Prediction Contest Results Week 5, Link for Week 6

Another successful week for the Stampede Blue Prediction Contest, and our participation still remains great.  Week 5 saw a few more upsets, which I called 2 of the 3 (booyah!):

  • Seahawks - 8/63 SU, 8/37 ATS (I guess a few of us doubted how much Hasselbeck means to the Seahawks)
  • Browns - 12/63 SU, 17/37 ATS
  • Bengals - 8/63 SU, 29/37 ATS.  Looks like everyone figured out 8.5 points was a lot.

Unanimous choices this week were Minnesota, Philadelphia, and the Giants.  None of these were ever in jeopardy, so nice work everyone!

On to the results of Week 5...Winning this week in the Straight Up contest were 4 different people going 11-3:

  • bluegirl
  • DFWColtFan
  • peytonsthebest
  • TouchdownMonkey

Great job to all of you!  As for the season totals, the leaders are:

Straight Up
Name Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Total
Gmachine! 14 8 14 12 9 57
emiller17 12 11 13 12 9 57
TouchdownMonkey 12 11 12 10 11 56
shoein 12 9 13 12 10 56

 

In the Against the Spread contest, we had 1 winner who went 10-4, and that was KingRichard.  Nice work by one of my fellow writers here.  On the season, the Stampede Blue leaders look like this:

Against the Spread
Name Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Total
shoein 11 12 10 6 9 48
The Lawn Wrangler 9 12 10 9 6 46
MrNFL 10 11 10 7 8 46
KingRichard 11 9 10 6 10 46
Power Ranking 8 10 10 10 7 45

 

Bill Simmons is back on top, having a pretty good week himself with 10 victories.  I'd also like to point out that Skip Wood, "expert" at USA Today, only got 4 games correct STRAIGHT UP.  He decided to pick a bunch of the big number underdogs to win, but didn't pick the Bengals.  Great job!  You'll also notice the Power Ranking, which I mentioned earlier today.  Those full rankings will come at some point on Thursday, with a short explanation.  Needless to say, it looks to be pretty good at this point.

Full Standings are after the jump.  I'll try to post the link on Sunday for everyone to see the picks, but can't promise I'll be around at 1:00.

Straight Up:

I've ran out of space for the complete standings, so go here for the full standings.

hells ya, I'm the weiner

All I need is to stay steady throughout the season and maybe I’ll win it all.

Also, once this week is over I’ll be taking one less class (was taking an 8 week accelerated history course) so I’ll have a bit more time to write something that isn’t school related.

Hit em with your groin!
