Eight more teams’ seasons end today. No matter what else happens, I’ll be ecstatic so long as Texas moves on to Houston. As far as picking the games, Andrew has (predictably) closed the gap, ensuring our annual contest will remain competitive throughout.

AGAINST THE SPREAD: PB [23-17] / AW [22-18]

STRAIGHT UP: PB [28-12] / AW [30-10]

OVER/UNDER: PB [22-16-2] / AW [24-14-2]
