Ooops - I had a mistake in the spreadsheets earlier... it's fixed now. I had the wrong final scores for some of the BCS games. Perfessor is now in a commanding lead if the tiebreaker comes in to play.

Final Standings...
22 specksynder
21 cpfull
21 Lion4Life
20 perfessor
19 williamsonj320
19 basebal21

Full spreadsheet: http://www.ideasite.net/coins/contest-picks.xlsx

Check it out, make sure there are no discrepancies since I squeaked out a narrow victory. Perfessor had the best tiebreaker score -- only 65 points off of the actual point totals in the 5 BCS games.

Thanks for playing, folks. I hope everyone had fun and would be open to doing this again next year.

Contestants can shoot me an email and I'll send you my address for prizes. (I feel awkward winning the contest I hosted... if that bothers anyone, just give the prize to a Young Numismatist and I'm cool with that too.)

Now a looong 8 months until college football rolls around again.

Congratulations specksynder, you really pulled it out in the end. I guess my lone picks came back to haunt me in the end. If only Pitt or Notre Dame could have won ...

This was a lot of fun. I would be willing to do this again next year.
