Reminders: these are for ESPN settings. Always check the website for (1) Yahoo setttings, (2) “Why high/Why low”, and (3) Histograms of most-similar historical games.
We have already 25 participants in this week’s Pick6x6 challenge, so the average guess for those 6 teams is listed in bold. The other scores are my own. And the Expert consensus rankings are there for comparison or possible preference.

Are you basing your ranking, on Hopkins, based on Flacco/Walker starting? It seems he does bad when DTR starts
