This Week's Picks

Before we get into the Conference championship games, last week was an incredible weekend of College Football. Auburn came back from 21 points to defeat Alabama. Boise State lost to Nevada and with it, a chance to play in a BCS bowl game. Now it looks like Boise State may play in a lower tier bowl. I’ve been a Boise State basher all year, but I don’t know how you can fall from the Fiesta Bowl to the Hey Man Let’s Fight Hunger Right Now Bowl on the basis of two errant kicks. Just don’t seem right.

Here in the Great State of Georgia, UGA beat Tech and now both teams finished the season with a 6-6 record. They both should just stay home this bowl season.

This Week’s Picks!

Cam vs. Cluckers: South Carolina played Auburn tough this season and The Old Ball Coach has been to many SEC Championships. However, I just don’t see this South Carolina team beating this Auburn team. Cam takes the money and runs all the way to the Mythical National Championship game. Auburn wins.

Gobblers vs. The Dag Burn Noles: Virginia Tech is partially responsible for the Boise State mess because if they had beaten them in September like they were supposed to, none of the “Should Boise State Play in the Championship?” talk would have happened. Then Tech loses to either Dolly Madison or James Monroe and it looked like Hokies were going to have a sad year. Yet, they turned it around, although in the ACC that is not exactly that big of deal. Still, they are way better that Joe Jack’s Seminoles and should defeat them without breaking a sweat. Virginia Tech wins.

OK vs. The Huskers of Corn: Oklahoma is just a lil’ bit better the Nebraska. Boomer Sooner wins.

Georgia Southern vs. William and/or Mary: The Eagles have drawn the number two seed in the FCS playoffs. Interesting fact: I know a player on The Tribe. His name is Matthew Crisafi, a 6’4”, 302lb lineman. My son played on the same baseball team, The Keller Interiors Braves at Oregon Park In 1999. My memory of Matthew is he was already taller than me when he was eight years old. Best wishes for Matthew, but I hope for an upset. It won’t happen. I’m doing my reverse mojo and picking William and/or Mary.
