November, CFB Pool’s “Death Valley”

LSU’s Tiger Stadium is storied as “where opponent’s dreams come to die”.

In the CFB Pool, November is our “Death Valley”, the month for chasing points, rolling the dice on big-time matchups, and determining the Group of Pizza. (The bottom 4 teams are relegated to the group and are on the hook for pizza at next year’s draft.)

Bombo bounces back with a pool-high 52 point week. 6 wins, 4 on the road. Notre Dame making its case for the playoffs, pummeling 1 win FSU and scoring 18 in his double game. He sits in 4th place.

EB Beaumont is in 5th – one clear of regulation. Pitt, Oregon State, and Iowa State lose for EB – Ohio State shuts out Purdue and scores 20 points. He’s in 5th with a little breathing room.

Champ is “first team out” in 6th place. Georgia loses his double game at Ole Miss, Miami suffers loss #1 to the Wreck and Fresno State loses to A Force. A pool-low 14 points for the week.

Operaman, Cletus, and Squirrel round out the Group of Pizza.

Cletus goes 4-2, including a double-loss by Iowa at UCLA. Utah’s misery continues losing the Holy War at home.

Operaman’s only loss was LSU getting pounded at home by “High Tide!”

Squirrel is starting to get it. He scores a season-high 44 points led by Ole Miss’s 22 point double win over Georgia.

Bruce Dickinson marches on – Oklahoma and NC State take losses. He scores 38 for the week, maintaining the lead.

Artie Fufkin sits in 2nd – 32 points behind. Syracuse was his only loss, 2-4 vs. the spread for a 33 point week.

Bronko gets an 18 point double win from Tulane. Cincy and the Gophers took losses.

3 weeks left with full schedules. The season is flying by, enjoy!
