It’s so hard to win on the road in this conference. I’m REALLY surprised that no one else picked all of the home teams. Picking against the Utes was tough but maybe, just maybe, I was using that pick as an emotional hedge. I forgot to do the tie-breaker score this week…lucky for me I didn’t need it.

Thanks Tony and let’s get back in the WIN…[Read more]

If other sites were “all that” there wouldn’t have been a need for this one. Keep up the great work, thanks for taking the valuable time to keep it all going, and most of all thanks for not treating your participants as an ATM.

My guess is an unbeaten SEC team would be the first team in the playoff and an unbeaten Notre Dame would be the second team (over any unbeaten Pac12, Big12, ACC, and Big Ten).

Also, we don’t have a Dres Anderson but we have a Brittain Covey to make up for it. For these two reasons I’ll say our offense is at least as good as last year.
