Week 3 picks...Version II


The only good thing about FSU: The Facebook hottie and her crew of mammary enhanced cuties. The collection of silicon in that picture is worth more than my car. This, FSU, fans is the only thing you have to cheer about. Anyways, on to the picks. There should be some damn good games on the tube this weekend. I for one will be glued to the USC-NEB game and the FLA-TEN game. The sad thing about this weekend, is that more people will tune into the match-up of the inepts then the two games above, which might actually have some BCS implications. It just goes to show you, we love a good train wreck. Picks Ahoy!!!



USC-NEB: Last year the Huskers were punished by Dwayne Jarrett and the rest of the USC receivers. This year, however, the Huskers secondary should hold up fairly well against USC. I think this game will be a good barometer for the Husker program. It is not back yet, but the competitive team that takes the field on Saturday will show you that they are not far away. USC wins this one. 24-17.

TENN-FLA: This game, like most other rivalry games, will be one that defies logic. Florida should hammer Tennessee but the Vols will keep this one closer than it should be. Ultimately, the human pumpkin and his Vols will not be able to handle Florida's speed and the outrageous crowd in The Swamp. It looks like The Pumpkin might be coming to a Thanksgiving table near you. Gators win. 31-24.

ND-MICH: Who gives a shit about this game? Anybody? I didn't think so. It is hard to believe that a game between Notre Dame and Michigan has no bearing, whatsoever, on the outcome of this years season. Look, so far Michigan's loaded offense couldn't score on a flag football squad. At some point that load of first day draft talent has to score some points. Notre Dame's Emu lead offense will be hard to watch and in the end The Big Blue offense will look like it should. Michigan sends the Genius and his golden domers back home with an 0-3 record. This just in: The missing person known as Touchdown Jesus has reportedly been found sitting in the first row of the RCA dome. 35-14

ARK-BAMA: This game will decide the runner up in the SEC West. St. Saban, talk about an oxymoron, will have his first test against an equal or greater team. Sorry Vandy and Little Sisters of the Poor Community College, you don't count. Bama has a stout d but I don't care how stout your d is you are not going to stop RunDMC and Felix Jones. All the Dickster has to do is complete enough passes to soften up the d-line and this one will be over. The Tide Roll into a buzz saw of running backs in this one. Saban tastes defeat for the first time. Hogs run wild. 28-17.

LOU-UK: This game should go down as the greatest display of defenses in college football history. In all seriousness, these two defenses suck balls. How you can be considered an elite team and boast a terrible defense is beyond me (See: Louisville). This game will probably be the best game to watch this weekend. The over/under on this one should be no less than 80. Whichever, poor sap is on the defensive side of the ball last loses. Woodson and the Cats, as well as the home crowd, will give Louisville all they can handle but Louisville has the better offense and wins in a shoot-out. 49-42

BC-GT: This is Tech's year if it plans on winning the ACC. Too bad they don't get to beat up on a couple of patsy teams to start off their ACC schedule. This game could very well be a preview of the ACC Championship game. BC will bring the best QB in the ACC to the flats in an attempt to score on a defense that has been dominant under Tenuda. If Chan Gailey screws this season up, he can't blame it on Reggie Ball. The Rambling Wreck gets it done and is actually relevant again, if only for a year. 27-24

FSU-CU: Talk about two schools that used to be juggernauts but as of late have been reduced to football laughing stocks. It still shocks me that FSU can be as bad as they are with the talent and coaching staff(excluding Bowden, who doesn't really do anything anymore) that they have. Colorodo, is in the rebuilding process under Hawkins but still has a ways to go. All in all, this should actually be a pretty hard fought battle. I am going to give the edge to FSU in a close one. 21-17

OSU-WASH: Jim Tressel brings his team out to the west for a rare regular season game. U-DUB is coming back under Ty Willingham and I think a lot of people are going to see that this guy is a hell of a coach. Yes, that would be you I am talking about, Notre Dame. OSU doesn't have the offensive firepower that it had last year but it still packs a solid punch on the defensive side of the ball. I don't think the fighting Ty's will be able to pull this one out, even at home. OSU takes the win. 31-17
