Week 5 Top Ten and Key Game Predictions
This is probably one of my favorite things to do is predict games. I am one of the few who take a chance and predict the results of game. What I normally do is predict the winner and a guess by how much the team will win by. Every week I post on Sunday/Monday the recap of how I did and keep a running record to keep myself accountable. When I predict scores, I try and guess the difference, but I also have some reasoning. Usually if I have it under 10 points, I believe it will be a very close game and could go to either team. (11-21) I still believe these will be good games but lean more to the favorite (team I picked). (22-31) could be a good game early on but I believe the favorite will pull away late. (32 and up) I don’t believe will be close. Remember this is all for fun and as you see I am wrong. Good Luck to all teams
