Yay! So I was 3-1 in my football picks week 1. Sadly, the loss was my alma mater and I just couldn't pick against them game 1. But now I see what we have so I can make an honest assessment. So let's take a look at the Boise St/UGA game.
A friend of mine said it best when he mentioned that he couldn't get behind Bobo because his name was too close to DoDo. I realize that isn't a scientific approach, but he made a valid point. Gosh, UGA looked horrible. Not the fill in mascot, Russ, (are the dogs afraid to take the mascot job due to the dark cloud over that role?) but the team. Ugh! I knew it was over when Richt lined Blair Walsh up in the parking lot of the GA Dome to kick a field goal. He is an awesome kicker, but you are getting beat by a Mountain West team. Go for a TD or go home! Guys, when UGA is losing at halftime, there is a better chance that Salma Hayek leaves her billionaire husband for you than them winning the game. Check the stats-it's unbelievable. Oh, and I still love them and will watch every game. I'm just stating the obvious. Next up? Darth Visor...Need a lead going into half time to win that one!
Since the Notre Dame Game lasted 32 hours (I know..I'm embellishing), I appreciate the fact that NBC showed us some"vintage" Notre Dame games from 2010. Because, those have been stellar performances. I knew they wouldn't call the game, but thankfully it ended..with a ND loss.
In the MD-Miami game, it was a battle of the new coaches. The Terp uniforms looked like some kind of Rorschach test gone bad, but maybe that is a way to psychologically confuse the opponent? It's a T...no, it's a checkerboard...No, it's a turtle playing checkers. Maybe they just tried to give the U a migraine? Those pick 6s hurt and Advil wouldn't help.
Picks up later along with some thoughts on the NFL. Note to self, must check my fantasy football time as I hope I did not draft Favre or Jamarcus Russell. Yes, I know they are both no longer in the league, but stranger things have happened.
