This Week's Picks

Big News: my other Alma Mater, Louisiana College, is in the NCAA Division Three playoffs! The mission of Louisiana College is “ to provide liberal arts, professional, and graduate programs characterized by devotion to the preeminence of the Lord Jesus, allegiance to the authority of the Holy Scriptures, dedication to academic excellence for the glory of God, and commitment to change the world for Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. Also to stomp the pagans at Mary Hardin-Baylor, AMEN!” 

Dear old LC making the playoffs is the biggest thing to happen on campus since the girls at Cottingham Hall stood outside of the boy’s dorm  (Tudor Hall) and yelled “Jock Raid” in the spring of 1979.  For the record, I did not throw out any of my underwear because I was at the library studying. It was my friends Lee and Randy  that threw out the underwear that said Alan “I Feel Like Bustin’ Loose” Manis with my phone number.  History shows this was picked up by a girl named Sandy who was one of the hotter girls on campus. No, she never called.  

   

                Give me the bridge y'all!

Oh, Mary Hardin-Baylor is the number two ranked Division Three team in the country. Mary Hardin-Baylor wins.  Sorry, Wildcats.

This Week’s Picks!

Party North vs. Party South: Georgia plays Georgia Southern (where this correspondent’s son and money goes) to determine who can party the hardiest.  UGA has wrapped up the SEC East, but they need a big win against the Mighty Eagles to keep whatever hopes they have for a real big BCS bowl alive. Georgia Southern wants to beat the Dawgs real bad, but, it will just have to be at beer pong, guys.  UGA wins

Faculty Meeting at The University of Georgia

Unwrecked vs. Dook: I have spent a good part of the fall dumping on Georgia Tech. Looky here: Tech is playing for a share of the Coastal Division title in The Atlantic Coast Conference.  On top of that, Duke has a shot to win the Coastal Division. too. Do you think the Mayans were right?  I want Tech to win but I’m afraid to pick them due to The Manis Jinx. So for the first time in the 10 year history of This Week’s Picks: No call

Paul Johnson begging me not to pick Tech this week

Teers vs The Commode Doors: Poor Tennessee. It just won’t get any better. But we will always have pictures like this:

And this:

Vince never said there would be years like these. Vanderbilt wins.

Trees vs. Quackers: Did you know Walt Disney gave a handshake agreement to the then President of the University of Oregon that allows them the use Donald Duck on their logo?  How can Stanford compete with that? Ducks win.
