    Two birds, one stone.

    Yes Bill you can change a pick as long as you do it in a separate response like this one.

    Everyday I pickup the paper I read about more players being ineligible for the bowl games. Supposedly now 4 Mich players are ineligible, don't know who they are, but with the all the player ineligibilites and the coaching changes how are we supposed to have any sort of decent read on these games.

    Can you say Crap Shoot!!
