Zach, IL Sweetness XIV, TheRealFutbol, and SDMENDKFMB all perfect in week 6

It was another record setting week in the UPsP, though this time it wasn't the upsets making things weird. There was technically one upset (Colts over Titans) in the NFL, but all the teams most picked in the UPsP won and so for the first time ever four players split the Confidence crown, all with a perfect score of 105 points. It was pretty smooth sailing on Sunday for Zach, IL Sweetness XIV, TheRealFutbol, and SDMENDKFMB despite a few nervy moments in Tennessee and a crazy first half in the Big Easy. Things got much more interesting during Sunday night's game as the Giants almost upset the Bengals and then the Jets gave the Bills a good test. In the end, Zach, IL Sweetness XIV, TheRealFutbol, and SDMENDKFMB all turned in perfect pick sheets to claim the week 6 Confidence crown. Another 4 players finished just one point behind the leaders and a total of 22 players broke 100 in what was one of the 'easiest' weeks in the history of the UPsP.

How you assign the confidence points doesn't matter when you pick them all right, but in a week like this, the Pickem' contest will definitely come down to how you assign your tie-breaker scores. Zach, IL Sweetness XIV, TheRealFutbol, and SDMENDKFMB each scored a perfect 14 wins by sticking with the crowd favorites and siding with the Bolts in their coin-flip matchup. So, it all came down to the tie-breakers... TheRealFutbol and SDMENDKFMB were overly optimistic about the Bills ability to put up points, and IL Sweetness XIV failed to put any points in, so Zach won the week 6 Pickem' contest on the first tie-breaker over SDMENDKFMB by being only one point over the actual winning score to secure the week 6 semi-sweep. Incredibly, another 15 players finished one win away from perfect with 13 correct picks.

It took the most basic week ever, but we finally did it. There were no lives lost in the Survivor contest for the first time this season, so all 16 players will continue on to week 7. MightyCardinal was definitely sweating it out all the way to the end of week 6 with his Survivor life in the hands of Josh Allen, but a few others with Philly and Cinci also had a pretty good scare and it isn't even Halloween yet!

The Ultimate Pigskin Pickem' (UPsP) is an NFL Pickem', Confidence, and Survivor pool all wrapped into one fancy package. Players make a single 'buy-in' ($70) for the entire season to compete for one of the 39 pots awarded throughout the season. For a complete description of how the pool works, check out the official rules. You can sign up and check out all the system features (including message board, player profiles, historical results, trophies, and tons more) for free and only have to 'buy-in' before week 1 of the NFL season.
