Well, there goes another one. As many of you noted, things are theoretically getting harder, with only five Big Ten games to choose from. However, as a group, you still totalled 13 bingos, lead by vaudvillain who got three. He’s up to five in the last two weeks, and five on the season, trailing only waw by the spaces hit tiebreaker. Precious Roy slipped to third, and seven peoeple have three bingos and a claim to fourth place. NU’06er did something interesting this week that I don’t think I’ve seen before. He got a bingo and a reverse bingo (five misses in a row) on the same sheet, whiffing the spreads entirely but getting a perfect on his Rest of Country games.
