Week 13 Impressions
What a fantastic week of football!!! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did, though I didn't get a chance to watch much. I spent most of Saturday returning home from our Thanksgiving get-together, so I listened to several games on the radio. Therefore, in today's blog, I thought I would review how my preseason conference predictions turned out. These will be presented somewhat randomly, but I will list my predictions, and then where they finished in parentheses after each team. Let's start with the SEC.

2) UCLA (4)
3) Utah (5)
4) Colorado (6)
5) Arizona St (2)
6) Arizona (3)- 1 right, top 1
PAC12 North
1) Washington (1)
2) Stanford (1)
3) Oregon (4)
4) Wash St (3)
5) Oregon St (6)

4) Texas (4)

6) W Virginia (4)
7) Baylor (9)

10) Kansas (10)- 4 right, top 1
BIG10 East

2) Northwestern (2)
3) Nebraska (5)
Iowa (3)
5) Minnesota (6)
6) Purdue (3)
7) Illinois (7)- 4 exactly right, including top 3
As you can see, I was marginally successful. Mostly, I did pretty good picking the top and bottom teams in each division, but the 3 or 4 in the middle were a little harder to get right. Out of the 18 "divisions", I picked the top team correctly 11 times, and the bottom team 7 times.
You'll notice I didn't include the Sun Belt; that's because their season hasn't ended yet. I'll review those results next week.
Until next time, may your day and your loved ones be blessed!
