Claifornia Delta:
Skeet 2nd. (by 1 oz.)
KVD 29th.

Golden St. Shootout:
Skeet 5th.
KVD 59th.

Blue Ridge Brawl:
Skeet 1st.
KVD 22nd.

Alabama Charge:
Skeet 5th.
KVD 57th.

Southern Challenge:
Skeet 1st.
KVD 9th.

Pride of Georgia:
KVD 38th.
Skeet 59th.

Tennesse Triumph:
KVD 1st.
Skeet 48th.

Sooner Run:
Skeet 2nd.
KVD 6th.

Fact is, Skeet did not bomb the last two tournaments. He didn't bomb at all. He finished ahead of KVD all but two tourneys during the regular season. He had perhaps the best bass tournament season in history, but because of the new format lost. The only problem I have with the new format is when the seperate first and second by a mere 15 points.
You said he didn't bomb any events with only 95 anglers two of the events 50% of the field beat him . OK he did BOMB when it counted THE LAST TWO EVENTS And again if you want to compare angler to angler PUT Ever's numbers up there Skeet didn't beat him either. Points are points SKEET CHOKED !!! If you watched the coverage today you could see the panic Flipping and the trolling motor on High 102 lbs thrust. He knew his reign at the top was over....
