It will be interesting to see whether JA will be subject to the same nit-picking criticisms Gabriel endured for two years.
Even when Dillon put up Big numbers and OU won, there was still the requisite "what about" cynical/skeptical comments.
So now, the handful here who insisted on pointing out the smallest shortcomings and failures of Dillon will all be effusive with their praise of him.
(Their way of hiding their glee that he's out of the picture now.)
Gavin Sawchuck has decided (for me) who's RB1.
He's fast and a slasher. No substitute for speed, slashing cuts and ability to bounce it outside to daylight. Expect big things from Sawchuck from now on.
The Horny Toads are up next. Glad it's in Norman.
As for Snarling Dogs...DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME!
With 2 weeks left, it's a sprint to the finish line!
THERE WAS A TRIPLE CROWN AWARDED IN WEEK 12. Triple Option posted 3 straight up winners out of his 4 selections and is awarded a TRIPLE CROWN worth 3 No Prizes.
THERE WERE ALSO 2 NO PRIZES AWARDED. Bixby_Sooner AND gcruse7 both won 3 out of 4 selections and logged No Prizes.
THERE WERE 25 STRAIGHT UP WINNERS POSTED IN WEEK 12. Triple Option had 3. Oklahombre, formulaS, SoonerLynx, IMAsooner, KySooner, gcruse7, ALL had 2 a piece.
MHSooner, White River, WishBone, Blue, OUBeliever56A, SD-OU, Bixby_Sooner, EMan, soonerTroll2, and your humble host ALL had 1 a piece.
THERE WERE 12 H&H'S AWARDED. MHSooner, White River, Oklahombre, WishBone, OUBeliever56A, formulaS, SoonerLynx, IMAsooner, KySooner, EMan, soonerTroll2, and yours truly ALL won 2 out of 3 of their picks.
CONGRATS! KUDOS! PROPS!--For ALL the winners!!!
cushcreekmont STILL holds onto the lead for 2023 SD Champ. With only 2 weeks remaining, Triple Option has moved into 2nd with 8. KySooner in 3rd with 7.
Boomerthang & Bixby_Sooner are still alive mathematically. But will need a TRIPLE CROWN in both of the remaining weeks
formulaS still sits atop the standings in both SU* with 23 and H&H with 10.
SoonerLynx & Triple Option sit right behind with 20. EMan with 19 and SD_OU with 18 are still alive.
Please check my scoring and totals!
