Regular Season Final

 

Game 1. Georgia Tech - Clemson

Tom - It wouldn't be an ACC Championship game without a Tech involved. I'll do something different and go with the team not named Tech. Clemson. NOT an Expert!

Kevin - "Tech" vs. Clem, just like we all predicted. The game is moved to primetime so only a portion of these two fan bases watch this game while the rest of the country checks out the SEC. As long as Clemson doesn't get ahead by 23, they'll hold on for the win. NOT an Expert!

Jay - GT rolls

Vip - Not sure if even Clemson can bring a good crowd to that famed ACC hotbed of Tampa. As for the game, meh. GIT wins 28-20.

Ivan - Hey Swa-fart, is da gaim saldaut? Stoopid GITs.

Paul - Clemson. NOT an Expert!

Curmudgeon - Maybe it was a fluke by Clemson earlier, but they gave the game to GT. Tigers win this time. Clemson. NOT an Expert!

John - Clemson lost to the fridge this year... Wasps.

Jim - Thanks to Jay's back-induced dawdling, I am no longer in last place. Let's see what we can do about that. Clem wins. NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 2. Alabama - Florida

Tom - This is what we've been waiting most of the season for. Bama is looking for revenge from last year but Florida finds a way to win. Crocs NOT an Expert!

Kevin - Crocs 13: verse(s Bama) 6. NOT an Expert!

Jay - Gators. NOT an Expert!

Vip - Having your top defensive player get busted for DUI prior to a national semifinal game is not a recipe for success. It's 'Bama's turn. Tide wins 21-14.

Ivan - t-boner wins. NOT an Expert!

Paul - Alabama

Curmudgeon - A Curmudgeon can hope, can't he? Alabama

John - Take the home field for this one - Gators NOT an Expert!

Jim - Not much on the line for this one. Crocs win. NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 3. Texas - Nebraska
Incredible! Every Experts is a Nostradamus!

Tom - A Husker win would really make that Tech win back in September look better but it ain't gonna happen. Horns

Kevin - Texas won't lose after getting this close and being denied as the best team in their own division last year.

Jay - Texass

Vip - Can we call this a "quasi-national semifinal?" Horns hook 'em, 34-14.

Ivan - bevo escapes

Paul - Texas

Curmudgeon - Unfortunately, it's the same old, same old. Texas

John - Hook 'em horns - Huskers don't have enough, even with Suh-perman

Jim - I sure seem to be picking against a lot of teams Tech has played. Horns win.

 

 

Game 4. Oregon State - Oregon

Tom - Ducks stick it to the Beaver. Ducks

Kevin - What's so civil about war? Beavers win. NOT an Expert!

Jay - The one w/o the State

Vip - The real Civil War (1861-1865) was infinitely more interesting. OU wins 40-30.

Ivan - duks of o-region crush tree vermins.

Paul - Quack

Curmudgeon - Since it's at Outzen Stadium I'm with the home team. Oregon

John - Betting against Oregon at home has been a losing proposition this year - Ducks

Jim - An in-state game between ranked teams. What a concept! Ducks win.

 

 

Game 5. Arizona - USC

Tom - USC only loses at home to Stanford. Men of Latex. NOT an Expert!

Kevin - Petey won't be calling TO's to prolong this game. Zona.

Jay - SoCal. NOT an Expert!

Vip - This is not the way Pete and his boys envisioned the season would end. USC rolls 45-17. NOT an Expert!

Ivan - Arizona Cave... Caro putridas es! romans. NOT an Expert!

Paul - Condom-mints. NOT an Expert!

Curmudgeon - Just for the heck of it, Arizona.

John - Gonna take a flyer and go with the cats here.

Jim - Nice RUTS, Pete. Trojans win. NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 6. Cincinnati - Pittsburgh

Tom - As much as I despise the Bearpussies, Pitt is bad. Cincy

Kevin - Got coach? The L'il E likes to crash and burn their own at season's end, as the 'Eers showed in 2007. Pitt plays spoiler again. NOT an Expert!

Jay - Cincy

Vip - I suspect the Bengals vs. the Steelers would generate slightly more interest that this Big East Championship turkey. Pitt wins 17-14. NOT an Expert!

Ivan - ah, what the hell, I aint gonna pick Geraldo, so... Cincy

Paul - Pitt. NOT an Expert!

Curmudgeon - Just for the heck of it, Pittsburgh. NOT an Expert!

John - Cincy cinches it.

Jim - Irish eyes will be smiling somewhere else. Pitt wins. NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 7. West Virginia - Rutgers

Tom - This seems kind of after thought-ish considering the other LE game on at Noon Saturday. Who knows. Dorks. NOT an Expert!

Kevin - The L'il E gets points for at least getting one of the big games right, just not this one. RUTS wins. NOT an Expert!

Jay - Cousins

Vip - Time to remember Jim's comparisons of WVU in Jacksonville to Russian soldiers to who discovered flush toilets for the first time in WWII Germany---and used them to wash potatoes. WVU wins 31-17.

Ivan - cousinz

Paul - Cousins

Curmudgeon - The Cousins prevail. West Virginia

John - Rutsgers again lives down to its reputation - Cuzzins

Jim - Aw, who knows? Or cares? Dorks win. NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 8. Houston - East Carolina

Tom - Blech! The Strawgraspers don't have the firepower but their defense isn't a sieve. Offense wins it. Cougars NOT an Expert!

Kevin - Nice recovery after almost missing out by Houston. ECU will have a problem. Cougars. NOT an Expert!

Jay - Strawgraspers

Vip - As good as it gets in CUSA; which ain't sayin' much ECU wins 24-20.

Ivan - houston has no problems NOT an Expert!

Paul - Graspers of Straw

Curmudgeon - I picked against Houston & got burned earlier this year. Will pick for them and probably still get burned. Houston NOT an Expert!

John - Maybe the hardest pick to make here, enigmatic Houston comes to pigland - Pirates abscond with the bacon.

Jim - The prestigous Liberty Bowl is on the line. Snicker. Houston wins. NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 9. Ohio - Central Michigan

Tom - Good thing this is on Friday. Chip--, Chip--, Some type of Indian

Kevin - VT 2010 MAC opponent over VT 2007 MAC opponent.

Jay - CMU by a TD

Vip - Why this game couldn't find a primetime ABC slot on Saturday night is beyond me. Ohio wins 31-10. NOT an Expert!

Ivan - happy native chips.

Paul - Central Michigan

Curmudgeon - Central Michigan

John - Sheeze, like trying to find comparables for a ghetto listing - directional Michicken, I reckon

Jim - What if a conference staged a championship game and nobody cared? Ohio wins. NOT an Expert!

 

 

Game 10. Florida Atlantic - Florida International

Tom - Wow! 4-7 against 3-8. Who cares? Home team. NOT an Expert!

Kevin - Who Knows over Who Cares. Yes, the Intercontinentals win. NOT an Expert!

Jay - Florida, Atlantic Style.

Vip - And then there's this turd. FAU wins 2-0.

Ivan - It is over... Finally! Oceanic.

Paul - Seriously? I guess this game is here because they moved Army/Navy to Dec. 12. Coin flip says FAU.

Curmudgeon - Why stay in the states when you can go international? Florida International. NOT an Expert!

John - Can't we just let the cheerleading squads settle this one? Panthers? NOT an Expert!

Jim - Not exactly Noles-Crocs, but then Noles-Crocs is not exactly Noles-Crocs, either. Atlantic wins.

 

 

Name That RUTS

 

New Mexico State at Boise State

Tom - Another of those exciting matchups. Blue Gays +50

Kevin - So you're saying there's still a chance? Tech fans get ready to Eat Mor Chikin because Boise RUTS to the tune of 60 ending any chances. 10/2 next year at Fed Ex will be hard enough without it being a grudge match.

Jay - I don't know why I try - no bonus points for me. Boise by 33.

Vip - This has UGLY written all over it---and not just because of the blue turf. BSU wins 55-0.

Ivan - boi state by 51

Paul - Smurf turfers by 35. Bonafide Expert!

Curmudgeon - One last game to impress the judges. Boise State by 42

John - Let's go with 49

Jim - Who are the Idaho senators? Boise by 45.
