This Week's Picks-Week Four

 

There's a radio show on "The Georgia Bulldog Network" called "The Bulldog Brunch".   It broadcasts on the Sunday after the game and features  Jeff Dantzler and Kevin Butler. Butler was a kicker for Georgia in the early 80's and played for The Chicago Bears.

Mainly, the show is about the game the day before and what Jeff and Kevin are eating. They take phone calls in which Bulldog fans make statements (or "takes"  as they are called now) and then the Bulldog fans hang up so they can listen to Jeff and Kevin's comments.

Last week, one guy called. He was that guy. He's the Fan above all Fans and he eats, drinks, and sleeps Bulldogs. He's going to give his opinion to you if you want it our not.

I wish I could find a transcript of it because: A) The man never took a breath B) Didn't seem the least bit concerned if Jeff and Kevin was even listening.

I heard something about Coach Dooley, Coach Smart, and three-peat World Champions. Jeff had to tell him, "We gotta go" because the show was up against a hard break.  

The guy finished with a "go Dawgs", which I think is how he finishes his prayers.

 

This Week's Picks!

 

Jawja vs. The Drags:  Georgia started slow, as is their custom this year, before going ahead and beating South Carolina. The Dawgs are playing the University of Alabama at Birmingham (School Motto: "Just say you went to Alabama") Dragons, so yeah, the Dawgs should get another win. They will. Dawgs win.

 

Bumbles vs. Demonic Church Leaders.   The Bees were not that bad against Ole Miss, but they still lost. Wake Forest is 3-0, but they barley beat Old Dominion last week. Fun Fact: It is Family Weekend at Wake Forest ("Hey Mom and Dad-See What $75K Buys You!"). Oh what the heck:  Tech Wins.

 

Prime vs. The Quacks  People really take this Coach Neon Deion Prime Time All I Do Is Shine stuff seriously. I saw another funny college football guy calling the love Sanders is getting as "transactional": meaning they only like Deion because he wins. DUH. I thought it was understood from the get-go with college coaches. Nick Saban doesn't get statues built for him because of his sparkling personality. Anyway, I like what Sanders has done in Boulder, I just want to see him beat a ranked team before I jump on the Deion train.  Ducks win

 

 

The State of Florida vs. The Sons of Clem. FSU in this one. I just think they are better.  FSU wins

 

 


Ahia State vs Our Lady. Ohio State is always one of those teams that are ranked, just like Notre Dame, except Ohio State deserves it most of the time. This is only the third time in history that Ohio State has played Notre Dame under the eyes of Touchdown Jesus. Forgive me father, but I don't buy Notre Dame this year.  Ohio State wins.

 

 


 

 

 

Bamy vs Ole Mess.  The computers say Alabama has a 65 percent chance to win this game even though they can barely block or cover anybody. Generally, over the past 15 or so years I have deferred to Alabama because they have been such monsters. They aren't anymore. I'm not so sure about Ole Miss, either, but if there is one year they should win, this is it.   Ole Miss wins.

 

Beloved Owls vs. Tenn Tech:   Well, Kennesaw State is 1-2, losing a heart breaker to Furman. This week, they play Tennessee Tech. Another fun fact: a famous Tennessee Tech alumnus is Dottie West. Owls wins.
