Zags WIN!!! 102-90 over Kansas!

Zags looked every bit the #1 ranked team in the country. Suggs looks like a one and done... Timme and Kispert looked amazing and this team is DEEEEEEEEEEP.

So, how did we do our first time out? Well... Zags played well... us... we needed to shake some rust off. Average score was a whopping 67.0889. We shorted the Zags by 17.7778 and undershot KU by 13.04. The spread we came closer, shorting it by 3.8.

Here are the means:

Zags 84.2222
KU 79.9556
Spread 8.20000


Zag buddy takes the inaugural game! Second goes to Zaga with willandi rounding out the top 3. They were the only ones under 30.

As always, if I messed up on transposing your score please let me know so I can fix the underlying data!

GO ZAGS!

[Reborn]

Thanks, LiZF. Really appreciate your effort and good work. Happy Thanksgiving. Go Zags!

[spike_jr]

For the record, my prediction was 79-74 GU. I didnt earn last place this week

[ZagsObserver]

Thanks, Lizf. I didn’t expect this level of offensive production in game 1. At least I wasn’t alone!

[LongIslandZagFan]

Lol. Will get you fixed up spike

[rennis]

Not many times I have been happier to be very wrong on a prediction.

[spike_jr]

Lol. Will get you fixed up spike

Thank you LIZF. I don't think it will help much, but it will get me out of last! Thank you again for managing this thread. I really enjoy "playing".

[LongIslandZagFan]

Spike.... you are fixed on game 1.

Zags win over Auburn 90-67

Another solid showing by the Zags. Auburn tried to slow the Zags down somewhat... but the Zags got separation early and held it that way through most of the game.

For our predictions skills we had a much better showing. We overshot the Zags by 4.4615. We overshot Auburn by 78.4359... Spread we were close on, going over by 2.07

Here are the means:

Zags 94.4615
Auburn 74.4359
Spread 20.0256

Winner for the Auburn game is ProVeeZag! Second on tiebreaks is Reborn. Zagzkrak comes in third. Sub-20 honorable mentions go out to: Radbooks, Sarenyon and MyZags.

[ProVeeZag]

I just got around to checking the Auburn prediction results ... What a nice surprise to come in at the top of the pack. I'll never forget ... my first time!

Zags win over West Virginia 87-82!

Was lazy this week and didn't do the data entry until literally 20 minutes ago... I knew about halfway through we were going to be pretty solid.

Average score for this game was 32.7750 a slight improvement off of the Auburn game, which I just realized I never posted the average score was 35.1282. Anytime we hit mid-30s or less we are pretty dialed in.

Lets break it down. We came up ever so short of the Zags score a mere 1.8 under. What killed our score was the 9.125 differential on the WVU score. We overshot the spread by 5.325. Side note... not one person had WVU above 80 points.

Here are the means:

Zags 85.2000
WVU 72.8750
Spread 12.3250

And out winner for the WVU game is... Zags11! Second is White Lightning. Third goes to Wenatchee Zag. Sub-20 honorable mentions go out to DZ and HenneZag.

Zags win over Iowa 99-88!!!

Third straight game where we have gotten the average score in the 30s... 31.1818. Impressive. Take out the naysayers (although at times leading up to the game I thought about posting a revised score flipped towards Iowa) and we'd have been in the 20s.

Lets break it down some. We shorted the Zags by 6.84. We shorted the Hawkeyes by 1.2055. Spread we came up short by 2.0545.

Here are the means:

Zags 92.1591
Iowa 86.7045
Spread 8.0455

Winner for the Iowa game was Spink! A mere Zag FT from perfection! Second was TravelinZag. GonzagasaurusFlex took third!

Super Honorable Mention (sub 10) goes to GU69

How do we want to handle the second NWS game? We use the same scores twice? Skip the second and move on UVA? Do it the same way as always?

[zag67]

Use the same score twice. But either is fine and thanks for your work.

[willandi]

Use the same score twice. But either is fine and thanks for your work.

Yes. Use the same scores twice. That will be easier for you. Thank you.

[LongIslandZagFan]

Such a weird scheduling quirk

[willandi]

Such a weird scheduling quirk

Eastern WA is playing (has played/will play) 2 games against Northern Arizona, big sky games, on back to back nights and it sounded like both games would be in Flaggstaff.

I could have heard wrong. I don't hear very well.

I just looked and it's weird there too. The first game, Fri night, was cancelled and the Eagles won the next night.

[LongIslandZagFan]

Results tonight or tomorrow AM... depends how grocery shopping goes today and tonight.

[LongIslandZagFan]

Results tonight or tomorrow AM... depends how grocery shopping goes today and tonight.

Yeah.... didn’t happen. Sorry. 26th morning it will be.

Wishing all you predictors out there the happiest of holidays!!!

GO ZAGS!!

Good morning sunshines!!!! Thanks so much for your patience on this.

PERFECTION!!!!! First place and first perfect score of the season goes to ZAGA!!! This is Zaga's third perfection since we've been doing this. Second goes to Zags11. Gonzagasaurusflex rounds out the top 3. No HMs this round either you ruffians.
