This Week's Picks

Change happens.  When Texas A &M defeated Alabama two weeks ago, the whole world said, and I quote, “HA!” It was assumed that Bama’s title hope was dashed by a young man who only a week before wore a Scooby Do costume for Halloween. It was a given that THE BCS TOSTITOS LONG JOHN SILVER SEARS J.C. PENNY JIFFY LUBE  CHAMPIONSHIP GAME would feature Oregon, which has about 400 uniforms and Kansas State, which is somewhere in Kansas. 

The answer to the question: Scooby Do, Where are you?

Well, not quite. Stanford beat Oregon and Baylor beat Kansas State. Now it looks like Bama will probably make it into the Championship Game and play Notre Dame. Or maybe not. You never know in college football. The only thing we really know right now is that Lou Holtz is a very happy inarticulate old man.

This Week’s Picks

Dawgs vs. The Bees:  Here in Georgia, we call this game “Clean Old Fashioned Hate” because the schools supposedly hate each other. However, over the years it has mellowed out into more of a “Clean Old Fashioned Mutual Gets On My Last Nerves With That (Barking Even Though He Didn’t He Go There) or (Star Wars Trivia Knowledge) depending upon the school.  Georgia needs to win this game to keep their hopes alive for a shot of the national championship. Georgia Tech somehow won their division in The ACC.    Dawgs win.

Bamy vs. War Tigers:  This is how bad it has been at the University of the Plains. An Auburn professor yelled at his class because they were very lazy, "I wouldn't be surprised if 50% of you flunk this math class," he said. One of the students put up his hand. "But professor, there aren't that many in this class," he said.  The football team has been about as bad as that joke. Bama wins

Meechigan vs. Ohioer State:  Due to some players getting  free tattoos a couple of years ago, The Buckeyes cannot play for the BCS Championship. Which is great because Urban Meyer is their coach and we’d hear all about how he works 48 hours a day and has high standards and wears a diaper because he doesn’t want to take a bathroom break, yadda, yadda.  In this battle of Big Ten powers, I generally go with Michigan because I’ve never liked Ohio State. But Ohio State is just too good.  Ohio State wins.

Our Lady vs. Trojan Men: Notre Dame would have been wiped out in The SEC, but they’re not in the SEC, so what does it matter? USC is banged up and I just don’t see how they can beat the Drunken Celtic Midgets. Notre Dame wins.
