ROLLOVER!!!
Week 14 will be worth $3,060.00 to a single winner
π Week 13 Recap: Chaos, Upsets, and a Rollover
Week 13 will be remembered as one of the wildest in Pool history. Upsets piled up from Thanksgiving onward, favorites fell like dominoes, and by Sunday afternoon the rollover was real. That means Week 14 is now worth $3,060 to a single winner.
π Thanksgiving Shockers
All four Thursday games ended in Pooler Picks upsets. Never before can I recall every favorite losing in a single day β and these werenβt close calls.
β’ 259 of 307 Poolers had submitted picks by Thursday.
β’ 212 were eliminated before Friday even began.
π¦ Friday Fallout
Then came Bears vs. Eagles.
β’ 143 picked Philadelphia
β’ 8 took Chicago
Another upset, another wave of eliminations. Thankfully, two favored college teams finally won to stop the bleeding.
π Upset Avalanche
By the end of Week 13:
β’ 12 lesser-picked teams won β nearly half of the 25 games.
β’ A handful of Poolers managed 3β4 wins without a loss early on, but no one came close to victory.
β’ Five Poolers (AIR CAV, DB Cooper, Dinwiddie, TD Bros, TidePride68) reached 9 wins for the week, but all were eliminated before Sundayβs second round.
π College Picks: The Wild Card
Typically, only 14β15% of weekly picks are for college teams. Week 13 barely cracked 8%.
With the Division 1 season coming to an end, Week 14 brings a mishmash of college games:
β’ 5 Division I (FBS) games
β’ 2 Division II (FCS) games
β’ 1 Division II game
β’ 2 Division III games
Only Division I games show point spreads β the rest demand research. Will Poolers finally give college games their due?
π Other Pool Standings
β’ Pick 1 Winner Pool β 82 remain, 11 undefeated
β’ Pick 1 Loser Pool β 32 remain, 3 undefeated
β’ Accumulative Pool β
β’ Hail Yeah holds 1st with 100 wins
β’ AL&BW climbs to 2nd from 3rd with 99
β’ Canadian Joe (previously tied for 1st) and MamaBear_4739 tied for 3rd at 98
MamaBear_4739 wasnβt in the money last week β proof that persistence pays off. Six Poolers are just 1 win out of the money, and eight more are only 2 out. With five weeks left, the race is wide open.
π― Closing Note
Week 13 reminded us that no favorite is safe, no pick is guaranteed, and no Pooler is invincible. With $3,060 on the line in Week 14, every choice matters. Dig into those college matchups, trust your gut, and maybe this will be the week you rise above the chaos.
