3) That team must be UNDEFEATED.
4) Once you pick a team, you can't pick them again.
5) You must post your pick before your selection kicks off.

Me, Merkin & Catnap only have one option (FSU doesn't play till the 30th) - so we can only pick Mississippi State.

DC can only pick Ole Miss - meaning next week he won't have a pick left. Me, Merkin & Catnap would only have FSU left which will have a bye week, eliminating us in the process.

Only way it doesn't end in a tie is if DC Ole Miss pick wins & Miss. State loses - other than that it will be a draw.

Miss State is my pick obviously

If a tie going into next week, I propose a TB of total points fielded as in RAP, unless if someone has a better idea.

I will use the Conference Championship Challenge as the tie breaker just like I have in the past.

Because no one made it to the end, doesn't that mean the game won? I remember last year there were a couple of us who made it thru the end and then we did the tie-breaker, but I think we should declare the game the winner due to no one making it to the end.

Yeah I think the game won. If you run out of teams to pick you lose, right? Well, everyone's going to run out of picks this year, so everyone lost.
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

The game doesn't win-you are playing against the others.

The point of the game is to be the last man/woman standing. If multiple people go out the same week (for a loss or lack of teams) and leave no last man standing, that's when you need some sort of tiebreaker.
We are the people our parents warned us about.

Just kind of interesting to note that not of the last 4 standing picked Arizona all season. The curse continues!
