I told you a week before the game Packers jd the edge over the Cowboys...nice try.  Everyone here disagreed, everyone.

As for MU vs SJU, no idea who won or lost. 


Here was my post...Sept 30th, 6 days before the game and why the Packers had the edge.

Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers...

Lol.  Let me guess.  Next you're going to predict MU blows out USC, scores over 100 points, and Markus goes for over 50 points.

All of my picks here happened well before the games, days if not weeks...sorry you don't like it...taking candy from a baby.  You could have made some dough.

I like Maryland tomorrow over us.  Happy to be wrong.

So LSU and OSU are locks. Clemson isn't going to lose to UVA.

So it's Utah if they win out, Georgia if they win next week, or a one loss B12 champion. All competing for the final spot.

Which is it?

You have three in there (Clemson, OSU, LSU) and then say if Utah wins out they are in but if Georgia if they win next week. Both Utah and Georgia can do what you suggest, but one one can get in.

Usually we don't get upsets in the SEC Title Game. Utah, Oklahoma and Baylor need to hope that trend continues.

Well I liked Wisconsin today on the road over a top ten ranked team...got it right.  Done pretty well with my picks against favorites.

I don't believe in college basketball ratings this early anyway, we certainly have a great shot tomorrow...hope I am wrong.

The look on Saban's face when he flipped his headset to one of his underlings right after the Alabama defense gave Auburn a first down for illegal substitution ... that was one of the most precious sights of the entire college football season.

Schiano to Rutgers


I don't get it.  I know they're is an emotional attachment to a guy who once was a decent coach in the Big East, but there is little to suggest that this will end well. 

But maybe that's the best they can do and they are hoping for a couple 7-5 finishes by loading up on non-conference cupcakes and hoping the B10 schedule provides a couple winning games.

I can't imagine them landing anyone better.

You know that uw-madison extension was the favorite in yesterday's game, yes? Guess you're talking about something else re: "picks against favorites"

I think I would rather go for a young coach, who is from the area, who can bring some energy to the program.  Not a retread. 

Granted I have no idea who that would be...

Nope, I didn't until you said it.  With reading the what ifs here about Minny beating Ohio State, etc..I am surprised.  Glad you corrected me...thank you.

I think Becky gives OSU a run in Indy...not because Becky is somehow elite...they aren't...but OSU is in, they know it, and 18 to 22 year old kids let their guard down.  They know they manhandled them the first time, they won't be as focused. Still have OSU winning, but will be much closer in my opinion.
