Week 3 College Football Picks

I want to start this post off by saying I have been told that a keratin smoothing treatment can change your life. I can now tell you it has been a life altering experience! I feel exactly like Drew Barrymore probably did when she saw Michael Vartan on the mound at the end of "Never Been Kissed" (except I don't see Michael Vartan anywhere near me)

NFL picks will be up tomorrow, but I was 2-3 with those selections. Right now, the Colts are writing an early letter to Santa asking for a Peyton Manning twin via express delivery.  I was 3-1 in my college picks last week, so here are the selections of the week:

Coastal Carolina vs UGA-It's finally here! The first "w" of the season for the Dawgs is within reach. Coastal Carolina is bringing their wacky coach to Athens to collect a nice check for playing the game. UGA had a tough week against Darth & Associates. The nail in the coffin was that Joe Cox 2.0 move Arron Murray pulled  at the end when he fumbled deep in Dawg territory. The Dawgs are ready to win. 35-10.

Ohio State at Miami-The new OSU coach bears a striking resemblance to Adam Sandler. Had they lost to Toledo last week his next role would have been "The Waterboy".  Alas,  the Buckeyes squeaked out a victory. Miami looked a bit discombobulated while playing Maryland, but it could have been those Terp uniforms making them ill. These teams look similar as they both had some off season woes, but Miami should win. Canes 21-17.

Oklahoma at Florida State-Allegedly Stoops and the Sooners are ready for a switch to the PAC 10, because Norman and southern CA are so similar. I'm not sure if I buy the hype of any team playing in the ACC, and Oklahoma always drops one each year. However, it may be later in the year. I am living on the edge...Sooners 28 FSU 24.

Auburn at Clemson-Auburn is Newton-less, but they have carried their cardiac finishes over into this season. Hey, a win is a win.  Clemson struggled against Wofford. Each year it's Clemson's year and each year they fail to capitalize on the opportunities. Auburn 35-Clemson 24.

Michigan State at Notre Dame-What happened to the luck of the Irish? Perhaps it's stuck in an expired box of Lucky Charms? Michigan State beat Youngstown State, so I am not sure they are all that and a bag of chips. Notre Dame's luck has to change at some point, right? Expect no D in this game. ND-38 Michigan State-35.

In closing, as I watched a snippet of the Alabama-Penn State game last week, I was reminded that at any moment Oliver Stone could be working on the epic motion picture "Joe Pa". I bet someone is in negotiations with Joe Pesci regarding that role as we speak.  NFL picks up tomorrow, so stay tuned for more dazzling predictions and observations.
