i cant remember and she didnt come up in the hort directory. I know she was a blonde gal and very nice
Huh. Don't remember her. She must have had a focus that didn't intersect with my lab.
I think her focus was Nursery and Greenhouse plants. She wasn't in turf or trees.
I had WKU with fairly high confidence, then chickened out and dropped it to single-digit.
I suppose if I had kept it high it would've gone the other direction.

I DID rank mine by confidence points...but they seem to be all scrambled. For example, I did NOT assign 40 and 13 to the first two games. Ah well, like CyCrazy, I'll just see what happens.
I hate the way these sites make you pick. You have to do them in order of confidence picks, otherwise, it just moves them whenever you insert a pick. I wish they would just give me a box in which I could pick 1 to 43 (and not reuse any number).
I'm trying to wrap my head around being in 10th place despite being barely over .500 in my picks. Then I started looking at my confidence points in the way that I thought I had them vs where ESPN decided to put them. Left is what would have been my score, right is ESPN's.

| UTSA | Troy | 31 | 13 | l |
| Cincinnati | Louisville | 32 | 12 | w |
| Jackson St | North Carolina Central | 1 | 43 | l |
| Florida | Oregon St | 30 | 14 | w |
| Washington St | Fresno St | 27 | 17 | l |
| Rice | Southern Miss | 13 | 31 | w |
| SMU | BYU | 39 | 5 | l |
| North Texas | Boise St | 19 | 25 | w |
| Marshall | Uconn | 3 | 41 | w |
| Eastern Michigan | San Jose St | 11 | 33 | l |
| Liberty | Toledo | 42 | 2 | l |
| Western Kentucky | South Alabama | 23 | 23 | w |
| 124 | 186 | score |

I know you had referenced it earlier in the thread (can't find right now), is it not allowing you to move picks to different confidence #'s, or is it something else? Trying to get the gist of the matter - just curious.
If it is, I can't figure it out. I KNOW I took the time to move all of my picks into my preferred order. Now I can't figure out how to even get back to that page. All I get is the group leaderboard, which has a glitch that doesn't allow me to look past the first few games (if I try, it rolls to the last page, then back, and won't let me stop it to try to look at games in between. And I get a page that shows the games that have already played, with my picks. That's where I learned that my confidence choices had been scrambled. And there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to the scramble. I made my picks in date order, then rearranged them to the confidence ranking. If the confidence levels did not change when I rearranged them, the ESPN points column should read 1,2,3..., not 40,13,12...
I didn't have this problem in the past, but I think they have made some changes to the platform...and I'm just not getting it.
