Eight players in Week No. 12 of our Can You Beat Randy NFL Pool hit for 13 wins, but this time even the tiebreaker was not enough to determine the week’s winner.
Both Ryan Grant (RyanNapa) and Bobby Pond (RAIDERFAN) had 13 wins and also the exact same tiebreaker of Indianapolis 24, San Diego 17 for the Sunday night NFL game.
The contest rules show that the game software will make a random selection when more than one person ends up at the top of the weekly standings.
Grant ended up the lucky one this week, with Pond getting the short straw and ending up in second place.
Grant and Pond were joined by six others in Week No. 13 who also had 13 wins, but each of those players did not fare as well with their tiebreaker picks.
Scooter Laplume of American Canyon (scooter01) used the tiebreaker to secure third place, while Matthew Young of Napa (SouthNapa) and Billy Seal of Napa (billyseal) were fourth and fifth, respectively.
In the overall race, smythm from Washington state now has a two-game lead (123-121) over both edlank5 from North Carolina and Maglon.
There are nine players still left in the survivor game as well.
Winners of the Regular Season, Overall and Survivor Game contests receive trophies from Doc’s Trophy Shoppe in Napa.
