COLLEGE FOOTBALL: WEEK 11
And then there were nine. Heading into the home stretch. Friday night game, so before kickoff. Want to thank everyone for sticking it out. I've gone through the four phases of losing (disbelief, anger, despair & acceptance) after our loss, but, man, it's been tough. Anyway, good fucking luck and standings to follow.

Friday, November 13th
West Virginia +9.5 @ Cincinnati

Saturday, November 14th
Tennessee +3 @ Mississippi
Arizona -1.5 @ California
Stanford + 11.5 @ USC
Iowa + 15.5 @ Ohio State
Arizona State +17 @ Oregon
Florida -15 @ South Carolina
Notre Dame +7 @ Pittsburgh

A couple of fun games: Miami(Fla) + 3.5 @ North Carolina, Michigan +9 @ Wisconsin, Auburn + 4.5 @ Georgia, Bama -12.5 @ Miss.St
A big weekend for the PAC-10.

1. Where the hell is TCU/Utah?
Iowa is sure the UNDERDOG here.

18. Thanks for that
We are rivals for sure. But I am proud to have you as rivals. Every fiber of my soul is pulling for the Haweyes right now. Until we play next then I hope you go down in vainglorious defeat.

19. The wheels are off the train in Ann Arbor, fish.
I'm expecting Whisky to romp. This could be Rodriguez's last coupla' games. I don't think Michigan will swallow two seasons like this. They started 5-0. Ol'RichRod and Cholly from ND are gone.

7. Picks...
Friday, November 13th
West Virginia +9.5 @ Cincinnati -- Sin-sin-nasty

Saturday, November 14th
Tennessee +3 @ Mississippi -- Mi-"double s" - i -"double s" - i - "double p" - i
Arizona -1.5 @ California -- Arizona
Stanford + 11.5 @ USC -- USC
Iowa + 15.5 @ Ohio State -- Iowa (Seriously? The Buckeyes have a 15.5 point advantage in the spread?)
Arizona State +17 @ Oregon -- Arizona State
Florida -15 @ South Carolina -- Florida (Although it is so very tempting to pick against them)
Notre Dame +7 @ Pittsburgh -- P'burgh (Come on stupid Panthers! Run the Irish exhausted so they don't have any energy for next weekend!)

For Fun
Another week where UConn can't possibly loose!
And a good thing too, because they head off to South Bend next weekend.

8. Iowa is starting a frosh QB, Brendan...
...who didn't do shit against Northwestern. Stanzi's out until the Bowl game. If that. Currently, it's Iowa +17.

9. I'll still stick with them.
Not to win, of course. But I can't see the Buckeyes winning by any more than 13 or 14.

16. A lot of extreme spreads, Auggie.
Gotta give them credit. Vegas knows what they're doing. My heinous pro picks of the last two weeks are an outright embarrassment.

22. Wait wait wait...
You guys think ASU, with only a strong defense is going to beat the Ducks at HOME? Have you been to Autzen recently? Sorry, it may be a low scoring day for the Oregon offense, but they'll be fine...Save your non-duck picks for the real games like Arizona and Civil War!

24. I don't think that ASU is going to win, I'm sure the Ducks will...
I just don't think that Arizona State will lose by more than 17.

I like picking against the spreads - it's more challenging than just picking wins or losses.

26. Continuing on...
with my downward spiral. Let's see if I can get more than two right this week.

West Virginia (a Cincinnati loss is better for my Hawks)
Mississippi (I'm so bored with thugs - more creative suspensions, please)
Arizona (good for the Hawks strength of schedule)
Stanford (see Cincinnati loss above)
Iowa (magical thinking, but maybe magical thinking works)
Arizona State (why I love waterfowl as a general rule, nope!)
South Carolina (and here's wishing that a land-loving fowl actually wins)
Pitt (a lifelong favorite)

for fun - North Carolina, Wisconsin, Georgia, Miss St.

500 miles from Columbus, so I don't here everything about this weekend's game. I keep here about the Maryland Terrapins.

Yeah. At 2-7 they are really fucking good!

34. Ugh, I don't even care anymore...
Apathy, thy name is Sooner Fans.
I'm picking all the favorites, mostly because I'm too lazy to scroll back and forth (I'm on my netbook and the screen, like Sooner hopes, is quite small).

FUCK.



Sorry. It's going to be a long post-season and a longer 2010 season.
