Everyone who picked '95 thought it would be a blowout. And then like five people had '87 winning. I predicted a 55% win for 1995 and it looks like I was being too generous. But you're right, I would like to hear the rationale for picking 95 with a huge percentage when three of its four "marquee" games are absolutely terrible fodder. It's like people didn't want to believe how badly the pic was screwing it over. Are you talking pre-contest or like, recent Oracle picks? Pre-contest it wasn't bad logic. As of yesterday, after we knew the pics and after seeing depth matter throughout R1, I can't describe it as anything except wishful thinking. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. <cite>KamikazePotato posted [p:878941226] in Contest St...
