Bracket dilemma

When I fill out my bracket, how am I supposed to pick NU to lose? Do we pick the 'Cats to win it all? The alternative - picking them to lose - may not be possible.

I've never had this problem before.

It's simple: Fill out two brackets. Create one fantasy bracket with the Cats winning it all, then create a more sensible, logical bracket with the Cats winning it all.

If it makes you feel any better, in 95 I did a bowl bracket and won like 200 bucks even though the Cats lost the Rose Bowl (I picked them to win and still won)

Post of the day.

Yes, I'm not sure what to do in my pools. I've done a pool for 25 years with three buddies in which we each draft 16 teams. Normally a team seeded around where NU might end up would go around 30th overall. I might have to pick them #1 just because I can't bear to NOT have them.
