[torontoeers]

Friday...most difficult pick of the week imo....home team BYU

Tie breaker going lower- 65...cmon Mountaineer D! And of course WVU In a fairly close one...run that ball well boys and eat some clock!
Clemson
Sooners
Twerps- Gophers screwed me good last week in another pool so screw them!
Miami
Bama- keeps on rollin vs heart attack Butch and his kids...
USC
Florida
Ole Miss in a real close one
Texas
ND- agree with Allen...flip a coin between 2 big underachievers. Surely the Golden Domers are gonna win another game besides Nevada...aren't they???
Colorado- win here and they are really putting together a solid start!
Wisky- Heart ahead of brain. Yikes!
UCLA- wondering if Washington St is for real, that week 1 loss to E Washington sticks in my mind. ...can't jump on board quite yet. If I'm wrong here, well who'd a figured Colo and the Cougars on such a high?...nice to see some unusual suspects at least...

Good luck all...

BUMP

Any other players this week? AirForceer? Less than 12 hrs left until the first game.

 

[3xWVUenginEER]

Bout 4hrs + 20min left to get picks in.

Miss State @ BYU doesn't kickoff til 10:15 eastern time. Why don't they start it a little earlier. This is worse than ABC MNF with Al, Frank, & Dan back in the day!

Agreed...isn't Utah in Mountain time zone? Perhaps I'm mistaken....this game has the makings of an interesting match up...

 

[3xWVUenginEER]

If it comes down to the tie breaker, we know who wins that one. Aye.

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

How many buckets of pickles do you think it cost to get Holgs to add that final TD?

 

[3xWVUenginEER]

Idk but I think he wanted to make a statement to his own there. He wanted red zone effort for TDs.

I don't think it was to run the score up but I think he wanted work in the red zone. Plus is scoring 7 with a 4th and 5 RUN play worse than a gimme 3 fg when you're up that much in the 4th?

 

[torontoeers]

If it comes down to the tie breaker, we know who wins that one. Aye.

LOL! What a soothsaying guess that was eh? Wow...that'll be a first and last for that!

What a solid all round performance in my eyes today...they were having difficulty getting to Mahomes early but eventually found a way. And the O...solid effort! Any word on Crawford fellas? Now I wish we had one of those bye weeks left!

 

[3xWVUenginEER]

According to Keenens article, Holgorsen said both him and McCoy should be fine. "Just banged up a little", but we won't know til next Saturday cause that's just his way of being Bill Belichek with players and the media He don't ever say jack squat about injuries.

Btw I was feeling good about 71 in the 4th qtr. Then I looked and saw your 65 and thought oh crap, I don't win that one. Whether luck or not, great pick.

 

[3xWVUenginEER]

[3xWVUenginEER]

I know I'm not winning pickem this week.

I still ate good, drank good, and had the pleasure of watching WVU win in pretty good fashion which makes everything else just gravy!

 

[torontoeers]

Badgers running well late...here we go...OT!

 

[torontoeers]

Man alive...the Badgers choked that one up
Can anyone possibly explain that choice to run to the outside on 3rd down ??? I knew, we all knew, and obviously OSU knew that was damned stupid!!!

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

With Wash St. winning I show countryroads89 as this week's winner with 13 correct out of 15. Wow! Somebody double-check that.

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

I could barely avert my eyes as I watched Sophia Vergera make coffee drinks on TV this morning, but I managed to put this week's Pick 'em numbers together. I think I could watch Sophia Vergara make ice cubes and it would fixate my attention. (SIGH!)

[3xWVUenginEER]

I was gonna say is was gonna be either CountryRoads or you ExPat, but I was too tired and too frustrated with myself for picking Mizzoo again. I will not pick them unless it's against UK, Vandy, or SC and I may not pick them then.

Good picking to CountryRoads 13 out of 15. Wow

 

[3xWVUenginEER]

I went 11 for 15
Ex pat went 12 for 15
Country Roads 13 for 15 - highest week win% of the year! Wow.
WVUALLEN went 11 for 15
Bell tolls for the went 11 for 15
Torontoeers went 9 for 15 but hit the tiebreaker with a bullseye

Haven't looked at week 8 yet.
Have it up by tomorrow

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining but my % played should be 73% (43/59).

I wholeheartedly agree on the Sophia Vergera comment. Thanks for crunching the numbers!

I had to miss last week because of the hurricane clean up. I should get some extra credit for putting up with that mess. Of course being a disabled vet I didn't do much physical work, but I had lots of good ideas for the young kids that di!

CR89-- you are correct, as is my spreadsheet. It's just my fat fingers that won't comply![cheers]

Hope everything turns out OK and there wasn't too much damage. Obviously you are safe and that's what counts most.

yeah, we drove to my daughters in Alabama for a few days and missed the worst part of it here in Jacksonville. Some areas close to the beach were destroyed, but further inland it was not to bad.

Well then you definitely get a pass for that sir...and BTW thank you for your years of service....this week it doesn't get any easier with some of these games....tough decisions.

Thank you sir; it always makes me feel good to hear that! We need to do the same for all those that serve. For example, firemen, police officers, nurses, teachers (the good ones) and those that volunteer in soup kitchens of special Olympics. The list could go on and on!

Yep going to be some hard to call games this week!
