JAY!!!
We need your picks for week 13.... ASAP!
Week 12
View results for Week 11

 

Game 1. NC State at Virginia Tech
God Bless America!

Tom - Senior Day and a win, hopefully. Tech

Kevin - Sean Glennon can fill younger brother Mike in on what it is like to play in front of a loud and hostile Lane Stadium crowd. Toney Baker's 2004 visit at the last Pack game in Lane now culminates in what will be a final look at the 3rd consecutive RB of which he would have played behind as Little Sweetness runs wild in the Tech win. All's well that ends well indeed.

Jay - hokies

Vip - If State uses the Maryland offense (a.k.a. run for your life, QB!), then Wilson could pile up some big totals. Even with that, the good guys win, 28-17.

Ivan - Tech RUTS coyotes.

Paul - Hokies send the seniors out in style

Curmudgeon - Good guys. Last home game, Senior Day, et al. Virginia Tech

John - Hokie seem to be in a late season peak - let's hope so - good guys

Jim - This week Tech will see an actual offense. It likely doesn't matter. Tech wins.

 

 

Game 2. Virginia at Clemson
God Bless America!

Tom - It's a little late for algroh to start the comeback but you never know. Yeah you do. Tigers

Kevin - If Dabo ever found a way to lose this game, he'd have to enter Federal Witness Protection. Project Pitchfork averted as Clem adds their nail into algroh's coffin.

Jay - Tigers

Vip - Algroh's penultimate game. Clemson clinches a trip to Tampa with a 35-17 win.

Ivan - lol! algroh has arrived for the anchoring. hey! watch this! orange downhill runners

Paul - Clemson gives alghroh a nice goiong away present.

Curmudgeon - Since Tommy isn't there, I think Clemson finishes with the prize. Clemson

John - Hoos seem to be in a late season swoon - Clem

Jim - You just know the folks in Tampa are holding their breath on this one. Clem wins

 

 

Game 3. Maryland at Florida State
God Bless America!

Tom - The only reason to fear the turtle is if you are accustomed to watching good football. Noles

Kevin - Perhaps Bobby and Ralph should just open a cooler full of suds near the back of one of the end zones and let the coaches-in-waiting show their stuff. At least when puzzled during the post-game presser, they'd have an excuse. "We were up? By how much? Really?" Noles scalp 'em.

Jay - FSU

Vip - St. Bobby puts another nail in Fridge's coffin. FSU wins 31-10.

Ivan - geronimo!

Paul - Even Bobby can't lose to the bad Terps

Curmudgeon - No contest. Florida State

John - This could get ugly - Noles

Jim - One team seems to have an offense, the other doesn't. Let's go with the guys who can score. Noles win

 

 

Game 4. North Carolina at Boston College

Tom - What do you know, Carolina is finally going to Chestnut Hill after 3 years of playing in Chapel Hill. Carolina gets another on the road. Heels

Kevin - If only Butch had corrected the offense earlier and defeated the Jackets, they'd be playing for a trip to Tampa. The N&O can dream all they want about the Gator for the Heels, but they won't be picked over the Hokies should they also win out. To prove it, let's say Fredo loses at home here.

Jay - UNC

Vip - I think Butch is due to have a "Butch moment." BC wins 14-10. You are NOT an Expert!

Ivan - awight, i owe boblee one... hillz

Paul - Heels by a FG

Curmudgeon - I have no clue about the Heels. Going out on a limb here. North Carolina

John - BC is a three point favorite going in - I don't believe that will be borne out - UNC

Jim - So Butch can beat the Canes. He certainly could when he was their coach, too. Heels win

 

 

Game 5. Duke at Miami
God Bless America!

Tom - Shannon should be able to pull this one off but it would be funny if he didn't. Canes

Kevin - Quite a fall from leading the Coastal, huh Cut? Devils keep algroh company near the bottom while the pilot's axe begins its sharpening. Canes

Jay - Miami

Vip - Who wants to go to Boise? Miami wins 38-20.

Ivan - <soup-nazi>no bowl for you!</soup-nazi>. southbeach win.

Paul - Miami ends dooks "bowl or bust campeign"

Curmudgeon - Miami does it at home. Miami

John - Miami will win, but Puke covers the 20 point spread...

Jim - Scratch another potential bowl team. Canes win

 

 

Game 6. Ohio State at Michigan
God Bless America!

Tom - Did Michigan finish all the pre-game paperwork? Nuts

Kevin - The list of RichRod's accomplishments of things Bo never did in 21 years of coaching in just under 2 seasons becomes more mind-boggling by the week. This Lloyd Carr supporter sez the Bucks win easy. No D, no way

Jay - OSU

Vip - Maybe this game will be significant again before I die. 'Til then, tOSU wins 31-20.

Ivan - da nutz of da buck!

Paul - Is RichRod in trouble? Nuts

Curmudgeon - Prefer Michigan, but RichRod isn't going to do it. Ohio State

John - Lemme think - Buckeyes

Jim - The Wolverines are a little better this year, just not enough. Nuts win

 

 

Game 7. Oregon at Arizona

Tom - Who knows? Oregon

Kevin - Zona doesn't lose at home. Ruh-roh Ducks. Stoops and Co. win. You are NOT an Expert!

Jay - Oregon

Vip - Looks like Oregon has some "punch" back in their offense now. (groan!) Ducks win 44-30.

Ivan - welcome back! o-region

Paul - Quack

Curmudgeon - Oregon's not in Outzen Stadium. Will go with the high desert boys. Arizona You are NOT an Expert!

John - With USC being down this year, football west of the Rockies is back to being a study in irrelevance, and mediocrity - pick'em - AZ You are NOT an Expert!

Jim - Not a lot of quality games this week. Oregon wins

 

 

Game 8. LSU at Mississippi

Tom - Everyone is probably picking LSU since they are LSU. Tigers You are NOT an Expert!

Kevin - Don't look now, but another at-large BCS is going down. Rev. Nutts win at home.

Jay - LSU You are NOT an Expert!

Vip - OK, I'm, gonna get a little crazy here. Ole Miss wins 17-14.

Ivan - bengals been struggling... let's give ole rebs a chance. jefferson davis boiz.

Paul - LSU in a close one You are NOT an Expert!

Curmudgeon - Can the Ole Miss RB gash LSU like he did against the Vols? Going with the upset. Mississippi

John - Ole Miss is actually favored - not buyin' it - LSU You are NOT an Expert!

Jim - Remember when Ole Miss was the trendy pick to win the SEC West? Tigers win You are NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 9. Kentucky at Georgia
Experts Humbled...

Tom - Georgia has more momentum. Dawgs You are NOT an Expert!

Kevin - Not on the road. Dawgs over Cats. You are NOT an Expert!

Jay - Dawgs You are NOT an Expert!

Vip - SEC second-tier hosts SEC third-tier. Uga wins 28-20. You are NOT an Expert!

Ivan - in memoriam. dawgs. You are NOT an Expert!

Paul - Georgia You are NOT an Expert!

Curmudgeon - UGA is bad, but not that bad. Georgia You are NOT an Expert!

John - Ah-ooh-GA You are NOT an Expert!

Jim - The heat is off Richt for another week. Dawgs win You are NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 10. California at Stanford
Experts Abused...

Tom - Harbaugh is doing a hell of a job. Trees You are NOT an Expert!

Kevin - How Stanford ever managed to lose to Wake this season is beyond me. Cardinal RUTS the Bears. You are NOT an Expert!

Jay - Stanford You are NOT an Expert!

Vip - How many shockers does Harbaugh have up his sleeve? Here's one more. Find the Tuba player! Stanford wins 45-44. You are NOT an Expert!

Ivan - lol, this is awesome. xmas tree farm. You are NOT an Expert!

Paul - Trees You are NOT an Expert!

Curmudgeon - In a delayed reaction, Stanford will probably let USC beat them this week. I'll still go with Stanford. You are NOT an Expert!

John - After losing early to Weak Florists, Stanford appears to be the strength of the west - go figure - Cardinals You are NOT an Expert!

Jim - Finally, a Big Game at least somewhat worthy of the title. Stan wins You are NOT an Expert!

 

 

Name That RUTS

 

Florida International at Florida

Tom - This is a really stupid game to play. If Tebow dresses or takes one snap, Urban is an idiot. Crocs by 50

Kevin - Crocs by a mere 40 as they hold back a few to plan their RUTS on the Noles.

Jay - Oh the Humanity! Gators take a big 39 point bite.

Vip - Florida International at Florida: Oh my. Urban needs some style points. UF wins 45-10.

Ivan - when you ruts - you ruts. FL by 52 BONUS!

Paul - Crocs by 35

Curmudgeon - Florida by 38

John - Who scheduled this? Probably the same AD who put Charleston Southern and Troy State on the schedule. Does Urban like to post big numbers? Survey says yes - 51

Jim - The only eye-gouging will come from fans forced to watch this one. Crocs by 35.
