“When I went in to pick up next week’s lines, they said congratulations,” Borchers said. The week began with six entries alive, and Borchers said he assumed at least one or two others had survived with him to Week 10. Entries cost $25 each, with a maximum of five for $100.īorchers got the best kind of surprise after he won his pick in Week 9 with Oregon, which covered -6½ in a 26-16 victory over Washington. In Last Man Standing, entries pick one game against the spread each week and are eliminated with a loss. “It’s a nice little cushion to do everything I want.” “It makes everything very comfortable,” he said. The 51-year-old said he is retired and has lived in Las Vegas for more than six years.
