Game Predictions (Week 8)

Well, it seems it’s game on.

A week after it was presumed that Andy Resnik had the title all but locked up, he goes a season-worst 9-6 (87-18 overall) and Jarrod Ulrey goes 12-3 to move to 83-22 to cut Resnik’s seven-game lead almost in half. Resnik vowed to atone for his worst week, which followed a 15-0 effort.

In an interesting note, Resnik and Ulrey agreed on only eight of the 15 picks this week.

Patrick Dolan (82-23), John Hulkenberg (81-24) and Don Delco (80-25) had 11-4 weeks to also close in on Resnik. JJHuddle.com Managing Editor Erick Frantz went 9-6 and Aaron Blankenship was 10-5 as both moved to 79-26, followed by Scott Hennen (77-28 overall, 9-6 last week), Brad Emerine (75-30, 10-5) and Lee Cochran (74-31, 9-6). Dave Purpura had a 10-5 week and at 58-17 overall. His .773 percentage would have him fourth overall.
