College Football Bowl Picks: Standings thru Dec. 25

By Craig Filazzola, WSOE Sports Director

Through the first six bowls, most of us have nothing to brag about.  Hopefully we won’t embarrass ourselves.

STANDINGS:
Name – Winner, Over/Under, Total Points 

1. Matt – 3-3, 4-2, 10 pts
2. David – 2-4, 4-2, 8 pts
- Tom – 2-4, 4-2, 8 pts
4. Russell – 2-4, 3-3, 7 pts
- Greg – 2-4, 3-3, 7 pts
6. Craig – 2-4, 2-4, 6 pts
7. Jake – 1-5, 3-3, 5 pts

2 points – winner
1 point – over/under

NOTES:
- David is the only one that thinks Marshall will defeat Ohio, while Greg is the only one to take the over (49.5 points)
- The UNC-Pittsburgh picks will shake up the standings (over/under is 44.5 points):
UNC, over – Tom, David, and Jake
Pittsburgh, over – Craig, Greg, and Matt
Pittsburgh, under – Russell
- Everyone has USC beating Boston College, but David stands alone for taking the under (44.5 points)
