I realize it is super-late in the season to be asking this, but how am I supposed to read the head-to-head matchups? It just looks like it tallies the number of votes for both teams together. ---

It just looks like it tallies the number of votes for both teams together. That’s all it is, really. Just a way to keep track of mis-votes. Right now things are hunky-dory. But as time goes on, it’s easier to spot where people either didn’t read the OP or just said, “Fuck it!” Not all that much in the long haul! 🙂 ---

It appears I’ve joined **Snowboarder Bo** & **Death of Rats** (fine fellows, good and true) in the hopes of the **Cats** rupturing the **Ducks’** quest for the PAC-12 Championship - don’t know about **Bo** or **Rats** but my choice is academically obligated: at the bottom of my diploma from the **U of A** , in fine print, it states it’s subject to revocation should I forsake the **Wildcats** (also, the ghost of **Barry Goldwater** will **Bear Down** on me). And I again pick **Boise St.** to lose because it _still_ isn’t a **state**. ---

My choice is predicated solely on what I’ve seen over the past few years with this matchup, and what I’ve seen is that Rich Rodriguez is one helluva head coach. Over the past two years what I’ve seen specifically is Rodriguez out-coaching Helfrich and I think that trend will continue tonight.
