IowaHawkBlog's Marble Game through Week 13

Sorry for the late update this week. Just finished a 9 hour drive.  Hopefully my twitter post from last night satisfied some of the curiosity, but I see now that I had something wrong with my mental math for Notre Dame. They're actually 5th, not 6th.  I'm not going to put a lot of time in today cause I'm exhausted.  So I'll just leave it with the marble implications of the consequential conference championships:

Georgia vs Alabama: 96 vs 129 (that's the number of marbles each would gain with a win)
Michigan vs Iowa: 79 vs 107
Pitt vs Wake Forest: 67 vs 73
Oregon vs Utah: 76 vs 76
Baylor vs Oklahoma St: 109 vs 91
Houston vs Cincinnati: 82 vs 53

**I have all of those calculated as neutral site games. I'll look next week to see if they actually are. I know the PAC 12 is in Vegas.

As always, if you find any mistakes, please message me on Twitter (@NateEMiller).  If you have questions, feel free to inquire with me or with David Burge (@IowaHawkBlog).
