The Bride of This Week's PIcks

Should the Head Coach of The University of Georgia Bulldogs, Coach Mark Richt (aka: Coach Cutie Pie) be fired?

There are two sides to this question.


The Anti Coach Cutie Pie faction believes the answer should be Yes because UGA hasn't defeated a major program since Bush was President. George Herbert Walker Bush. Also they think Coach Pie is "soft" because he is not an amoral pirate that would break all possible laws to defeat Auburn.

The Pro Coach Cutie Pie faction believes the answer should be No because they point out UGA has a winning record against The University of Louisiana-Monroe. It should be noted that not one  UGA  player has committed a major felony (this week). Also, and this is important, he is just such a dog-gone (no pun intended) nice guy.

Meanwhile,  Coach Paul Johnson (aka: Coach Chuckles) of Georgia Tech, has won only three games this year, one being a miracle because God doesn't like grown men named "Jimbo". Not a peep out of The Flats about firing Johnson, who has a good season every once and a while.

This Week's Picks!

Busted Puppies vs Kenyucky: One reason why Richt doesn't resign is UGA plays Kentucky, Auburn, Georgia Southern and Georgia Tech in the next four games. UGA could win all of them and hello Outback Bowl. He still plans to start Faton Bauta, which up until last week I thought was something sold at IKEA. (So I haven't memorized the entire UGA depth chart. Sue me.) I think the Dawgs can win this. They better. UGA wins!

That Other Florida Team vs Clem's Son:  This is the battle of The Coaches With The Comical First Names. Dabo vs Jimbo.  Clemson is in the top four and with good reason- they are a good team. I think they should beat FSU. Clemson wins!

Go in dumb-come out dumb too vs The Tide of Crimson:  You know the major rule of TWP-never bet against Nick Satan Saban because he is the dark lord of the earth. Plus he is insane. Not quite as insane as Les Miles, who is just plain nuts, Andy. However, Miles has something that Dark Lord Saban doesn't have: Leonard Fournette.  That should be enough to win the game. LSU wins!

Aroused Reptiles vs Okay State:  TCU feels jobbed because they were not included in the mythical playoff rankings. At this time last year, Ohio State was ranked 16th. Oh well, it was the thought of the playoff that counted. Oklahoma State is the alma mater of  my friend that fixes my computer so I have to root for OSU. However, I'm picking TCU because he believes in the Manis Jinx, like all of the other rational math based friends I have. TCU wins!

The Mighty Hooters vs Charleston-Southern:  Well, lookie here. Which school has a better record than Kennesaw State? UGA? Tech?  What's that? The sound of one hand clapping?  Little Kennesaw State, the school everybody looked down on because it was down the street from a Cracker Barrel, has a better record than UGA and Tech. Sure, they played Point University and Edward Waters, but hey, we played who showed up. KSU wins!
