    That game's off the board so there was no line for him to use.

    I could be wrong, but pretty sure Tortuga doesn't add games once he's posted the list.

    Four players remained and none of them survived Week 6. Since all four were eliminated, we had to use tiebreaker rules. Things got interesting in breaking the tie between third and fourth.

    Here were the tiebreaker rules:
    If multiple players are eliminated simultaneously, the tie goes to the player whose final pick failed to cover the spread by the fewest points. If there is still a tie, the tie will be awarded to the player whose most recent winning play covered the spread by the most amount of points (going backward multiple weeks as needed).


    Final results
    1. h82lose 5-1-0 (Utah -7) - Failed to cover by 1
    2. chuckh 5-1-0 (TCU -9.5) - Failed to cover by 2.5
    3. Bobby Bingo 5-1-0 (Northwestern +8) - Failed to cover by 30 - Last week Baltimore -2.5 covered by 0.5 - Two weeks ago Texas Tech +8.5 covered by 5.5

    4. Coops 5-1-0 (Northwestern +8) - Failed to cover by 30 - Last week Baltimore -2.5 covered by 0.5 - Two weeks ago Pittsburgh -1 covered by 5

    1st Place: 40 RAS credits ($720 value) or $300 in cash and $300 to charity of choice*.
