here some of my picks..at least the ones i find remotely interesting.
#20 a&m at miami - i'll be rooting for miami. 34-31 miami #12 s carolina at #2 lsu - lsu wins huge 38-13 tech at ok state - tech starts sloppy but comes back at the end to finish them off 32-24 #21 kentucky at arkansas - arkansas pulls the upset and wins big 42-12 after being pissed off from last week rice at #7 texas - we played rice in houston and won by 35, so texas should win by at least that amount...but rice won't score 24 on them like they did to us. 42-6 fiu at kansas - fiu might be the worst team in the country in their few years of existence. but, i'm gonna go for them and say 21-16. 22 georgia at 16 alabama. i hate alabama still from the 2005 cotton bowl, but think they'll still win 32-24. --------------------  |

this would be more interesting if we kept a running tally and someone gave the spread.
btw will what do you think about henry as a DE now instead of their short yard guy? |

I can't find any lines on TTU. Last I heard it was Tech -1 vs Osu. I'll probably take TTU - anything less than 6 Picks I feel solid about: OU - 24 vs Tulsa South Florida -14 vs North Carolina Cincinatti -23 vs Marshall Oregon - 17 vs Stanford Clemson -8.5 vs NC State Michigan St. -14 vs Notre Dame Florida - 21 vs Mississippi Iffy / no pick yet...: UT - 38 vs Rice is very iffy to me. Pittman is back in the game....but I'm expecting about a 45 13 win for UT. I don't have faith they'll cover that....but at the same time, it IS rice and Jamaal Charles IS on fire now. West Virginia - 25 vs East Carolina. This is the same East Carolina that has held WV to dramatically mitigated rushing yards the past few years. That alone makes me not want to go near this one. However it IS at home....hmm Penn St. -3.5 vs Michigan. I think Penn St. will take this game by 10+....but I'm not comfortable with this game Not touching : LSU vs South Carolina. Not going near this one Aggies +3 vs Miami. No dice ! Can't wait to watch this one though -------------------- QUOTE (Lance) now we have some dude from argentina wondering how to fuck dogmeat |

here use this template and bold what your picks. obviously dont have to make picks on everything but its easier to see what the spreads are and who is where. the only two i didnt see info on with rocky's link was the tech game and hawaii game, curious what it is on those two.
=================================== =========Thursday, September 20========= Texas A&M(+2 1/2) @ Miami (FL) =========Friday, September 21=========== Oklahoma @ Tulsa(+24) =========Saturday, September 22========= North Carolina(+14) @ South Florida Illinois @ Indiana(+3) Syracuse(+38) @ Louisville Penn State @ Michigan(+3 1/2) Clemson @ North Carolina State(+8 1/2) Maryland(+3) @ Wake Forest Temple(+21) @ Bowling Green Northwestern(+22 1/2) @ Ohio State Connecticut(+9) @ Pittsburgh Georgia Tech @ Virginia(+4) Army(+29) @ Boston College Florida @ Mississippi(+21 1/2) Ball State(+23) @ Nebraska Georgia(+3 1/2) @ Alabama Duke(+11 1/2) @ Navy Washington(+7) @ UCLA Eastern Kentucky at Jacksonville State Wyoming @Ohio(+4) Air Force(+11) @ Brigham Young Miami (OH)(+14) @ Colorado Michigan State @ Notre Dame(+14) Texas Tech at Oklahoma State (<-???) East Carolina(+25) @ West Virginia Memphis(+7) @ UCF Colorado State(+6 1/2) @ Houston Northern Illinois(+2 1/2) @ Idaho Kent State @ Akron(3 1/2) Baylor @ Buffalo(+4 1/2) New Mexico State(+17) @ Auburn Kentucky(+6 1/2) @ Arkansas Florida Atlantic @ North Texas(+6) Rice(+38 1/2) @ Texas Troy @ Louisiana-Lafayette(+11) Marshall(+23) @ Cincinnati Florida International(+31) @ Kansas Arkansas State(+18 1/2) @ Tennessee Iowa State @ Toledo(+3 1/2) Washington State(+24 1/2) @ USC South Carolina(+17) @ LSU Iowa(+7 1/2) @ Wisconsin San Jose State(+3 1/2) @ Utah State Southern Methodist(+20 1/2) @ TCU Purdue @ Minnesota(+14 1/2) Oregon State(+12) @ Arizona State Oregon @ Stanford(+17) Utah @ UNLV(+8 1/2) Charleston Southern at Hawaii (<--????) =================================== __________________ |

I'll make my pics tomorrow
Hawaii game doesn't have a spread because Charlestown Southern is a D-2 school, and everyone knows ranked teams don't lose to D-2 schools. Oh. Wait -------------------- |

===================================
=========Thursday, September 20========= Texas A&M(+2 1/2) @ Miami (FL) -itll be close but miami will take it by a td =========Friday, September 21=========== Oklahoma @ Tulsa(+24) -stoops is going to have the benchwarmers in by mid 3rd quarter. =========Saturday, September 22========= Penn State @ Michigan(+3 1/2) - looked damn good against notre dame(anyone does) but its at home so gotta go with them this week Georgia Tech @ Virginia(+4) - 4 isnt enough to make me feel safe picking against gtech, they will get their points this week Florida @ Mississippi(+21 1/2) - tebow looks like vince young 2.0 Georgia(+3 1/2) @ Alabama - wouldnt touch this, havent seen enough saban yet. leaning towards georgia though. Texas Tech @ Oklahoma State (<-???)- id say 12 pts is the max id take for tech. osu just got ruined by troy, id say expect a shootout but osu is a big X factor. Kentucky(+6 1/2) @ Arkansas - 100% healthy mcfadden and they win by 10. if he has leg issues by 3. Rice(+38 1/2) @ Texas - too big of a spread, gotta go with rice Iowa State @ Toledo(+3 1/2) -gut pick South Carolina(+17) @ LSU -steve spurrier gets blown away as LSU dominates at home. they wont have to put up insane numbers as lsu's D will smother the gamecocks, but will still manage the spread. Utah @ UNLV(+8 1/2) -utah is out to make a statement early but will fizzle mid season Charleston Southern at Hawaii -if its <25 ill take hawaii. =================================== __________________ [/quote] |

I didn't really care to pick em all or the scores really but here's my take:
Texas A&M over Miami by at least a TD - both are big rushing teams and A&M wins that battle imho Texas Tech steamrolls Oklahoma State - OSU is still trying to figure out their QB situation. the guy the got right now has thrown almost as many ints as he has touchdowns. we tend to take advantage of turnovers with quick scores. i'm a little leery about the game but given the situation i think we'll steamroll em. we may not see taylor potts in the 3rd but it'll be a big win. not many other games i care about or that aren't obvious |
