Picks

I will go ahead and admit I'm not 100% myself (maybe 60%-thanks food poisoning), but I have an obligation to make incorrect picks for my raving fans. I could talk about Sandy and the upcoming election, but I will keep it light. Hopefully, you didn't give out all the good Halloween candy and kept the Skittles for yourself.  I would also like to say I'm a bit loopy, so the humor will be discounted.

Btw, did anyone see the Chiefs last night? They should just fold up and call it a year. They garner an A+ for bad.While writing this, my husband is watching an uplifting episode of "Monsters Inside Me." We are sparkly, "Shiny Happy People" in this house.

Alabama at LSU-This gets the winner winner chicken dinner game of the week. Alabama has quietly taken care of business while LSU has a sketchy offense-meaning, they have a difficult time scoring TDs. Generally, I say never go against Les Miles. But enter Nick Saban, and you definitely don't go against him. The crowd will be rowdy in Bobby Bouchet land, but I look for the Tide to stay perfect.

Oregon at USC-Is this the week we find out if the Ducks are all they are quacked up to be? Probably not. 12 year old Lane Kiffin heads up a Trojan team that has underperformed. Remember when Matt Barkley was going to win the Heisman? Yeah, he's not.  This is the PAC 10 or PAC 20 or whatever they are calling themselves now, so this could be a high scoring, no D kind of game. However, USC won't ruffle their feathers. Chip Kelly and the quack attack gets the W.

Oklahoma State at Kansas State- I said I couldn't buy K State last week because there was something off about them. Guess I have to change that line of thinking because their remaining schedule definitely favors them going undefeated. The Cowboys won't knock them off.. K State

Pittsburgh at ND-Mmmmmm. I'm not sold on Notre Dame, but I admit their defense is nice. Pittsburgh lost to Youngstown State and I haven't forgotten that. Some peeps like Pitt in an upset. I cannot with any kind of conscience pick a team that lost to Youngstown State to beat an undefeated team this late in the season. Golden domers.

Texas A&M vs Mississippi State-This one is tough. The Bulldogs got drummed by Bama last week while the Aggies look like a nice addition to the SEC. The Bulldogs in a squeaker

Ole Miss at UGA-UGA surprised me by winning against the Gators last week. Elmer's alma mater isn't bad, but the Dawgs get the W.

*****Game of the Week********

GT at Maryland-What you say? Why on earth is this the game of the week? The Terps have lost their 4 scholarship QBs and are starting a linebacker at QB. He is backed up by a walk on tight end. This has all the makings of "Remember the Titans", right? GT has had a baaaaaad season with the high lowlight being losing to Middle TN State. At home. By 21. GT should win this one right? I mean a LB at QB? I'm torn. I'll take the Terps in the ultimate squeaker.
