We doing it this year? There is a Big 10 game tonight, but I don't want to step on any toes in terms of picking games.

Re: Big 10/College Football Pick'em

Michigan State University vs. Youngstown St(Friday)
Ohio State University Vs. Akron Just to be different and for putting that stupid THE in front.
Pennsylvania Commonwealth(oops I mean Penn State.) vs. Indiana State
Purdue vs. Middle Tennessee State
Northwestern @ Boston College
Iowa vs Tennessee Tech
Illinois vs Arkansas State
Nebraska vs. Chattanooga
Minnesota @ USC
Michigan vs. Western Michigan
Indiana vs Ball State(@ Lucas Oil Stadium)


The rest of the country:
Oregon vs LSU (@ Dallas Cowboy's Stadium)
Boise State vs. Georgia (in Atlanta)
SMU vs Texas A&M
South Florida vs. Notre Dame
South Carolina vs East Carolina

As much as I want LSU to win and be undefeated when they roll in Morgantown but I can't see how Oregon doesn't put up 60 on them without some of their starters.

Persa is out for Northwestern... FYI.

Re: Big 10/College Football Pick'em

Boy, Auburn sure tried to give that game away today.

Happy the Buckeyes played well after the rough off season they had this year.
