Are you referring to the USC game? I hope it doesn't bite them. It bit us against Texas in 2005, hopefully we can avoid that scenario this time. I really think it will throw USC off a little bit. The their defense is so talented, I'm very worried about whether or not our receiver's can get open. And with Beanie being hurt... :thumbdownOriginally Posted by Spring~Fields
Yikes with that three headed QB at OSU let's hope not, it just might bite them next week.

Well.... the object of this whole "competition" IS to pick the weekly WINNERS.I should have received points for degree of difficutly, the rest of you took the easy street.
What a schedule for the Big and Wants-It-EASY-Eleven, my goodness talk about wanting it soft. Even the Michigan teams should win this week. OSU will be ill-prepared for USC at this rate.
I will take the easy ones like you GAC this week.:
You've been listening to Baker's philosophy too long on how to pick winners.
You must have graduated from South!

Ok. Here are my picks....
Ohio @ OSU
Marshall @ Wisconsin
E. Illinois @ Illinois
E. Michigan @ Michigan State
Miami(OH) @ Michigan
Florida Int. @ Iowa
N. Colorado @ Purdue
Oregon State @ Penn State
Murray State @ Indiana
Northwestern @ Duke
Minnesota @ Bowling Green
I gotta a feeling I'm gonna get burned on the Minnesota-Bowling Green game, but I'm hanging. Coach Brewster does not impress me.

Well I did this time, ten of them, you missed one, I will tell you which one after the results are in
That Minnesota/Bowling Green game has been haunting me since I made the pick, you might be right. I am going to stick with the first thought. If I were you, I would change that pick to Minnesota though.I gotta a feeling I'm gonna get burned on the Minnesota-Bowling Green game, but I'm hanging. Coach Brewster does not impress me.
That's true.You've been listening to Baker's philosophy too long on how to pick winners.
I don't listen to him though, with him, you have to get everything in writing.
Nope. I was raised in the Fairborn school system in the winter and your area during the summer months.You must have graduated from South!
Hey, I know that you’re the one that graduated from cow patti high, Northeastern, but don’t worry about it, your secret is safe with me, I won’t tell all of Redszone. First in your class in mole hunting.

I hope not too but I think it will, plus Pete Carroll and USC as we know are pretty good, suppose to be a lot of speed on that team.Are you referring to the USC game? I hope it doesn't bite them.

I guess we will have to wait and see, but, I am already preparing myself.

Anyone watching the UCLA/Tennessee game? Rick Neuheisel just lost the game for UCLA. It's truly unreal how dumb coaches can be. UCLA led 24-21 with 27 seconds left. They did a little squib kick and gave Tennessee the ball at the 45 instead of kicking deep and making them earn those yards. Then predictably they ran the prevent defense and like it always does, it prevented them from winning. Tennessee moved the ball at will and kicked a game tying field goal to sent it to OT. Man oh man. It's the same story every time. When will coaches finally learn that squib kicks and prevent defense kill you every time? I can't stand UCLA so I'm glad UT is probably gonna win.
Edit - UCLA wins 27-24 in OT but they deserved to lose after that choke.

Tennessee pulls another Tenn. Fulmer is on double secret probation again!
1st pick of the 2023 baseball amateur draft
What exactly were the D's doing in that game? both just let the recivers catch pass after pass 10 yards down the field.
Yeesh can both take the loss?
Go Gators!

OSU

Fullmer got really two lucky wins last season against Vandy and UK or he would have been gone then. I don't think Vol Nation is going have him around this time next season.

I don't think three of these are locks (Oregon State, Duke and Minnesota I think could all win).
I agree, these games can go either way

More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me.
I think that you are right, those are shakey. It is hard to tell about some of these teams early in the season with little but some press clippings to judge by.
