GINO B is the winner of the 2006 Pac-10 Pigskin Pundits Pool by 22 points, the largest winning margin since 2002. Gino, one point behind JDmohowski after the last week of the regular season, picked the bowl outcomes of six teams correctly while JD, who had the best overall winning percentage at 79.7% had only four.

Joe Pundit, the consensus picks, finished 66th after finishing 4th last year.

An example of the importance of accurate score predictions is that a 50-24 record placed as high as 2nd, while another 50-24 record was 212th.

Rick Albert was the winner of the Bowl Predictions , correctly predicting the bowl outcomes of all ten conference teams, setting the contest record.

WashingtonDuck had the most games picking the winner and exact margin, six. There were 44 picks of the exact score, with Garee, WashingtonDuck, Dave B, and Dan Melin having two each.

The Award for Continued Excellence goes to MBTrojan who has fnished in the top-30 three years in a row (2nd in 2004, 13th in 2005, 28th in 2006).
