Week four had some really exciting games and some wild upsets like LSU & Missouri. Now I am wondering who will suffer this coming week. I am confident we will have some problems with Cincinnati.
Games I'm looking forward to.. Thursday night. Texas Tech vs Okla.State Should be a shoot out. Irish vs Syracuse...listening to Mike Frank Power Hour last night...I now fear the 'Cuse. Texas vs KU ...if we don't beat these guys oh boy. Tenn vs UGa ...Vols had the week off to prepare, UGa mudstomped some team. Army vs Yale....Joel will no doubt be at this game! Arkansas vs A&M at Jerry World...is this the last time at the neutral site? Ark looks strong but A&M stronger. Stanford at Washington. Washington has been putting up pinball numbers the last 3 weeks. Can that continue? Cincinnati at Ohio State...Gunner Kiel been putting up big numbers but not against Power 5 teams. Tommy Tubesteak not unfamiliar though with taking teams into big venues like the Shoe. Missouri at South Carolina... Spurrier was embarassed by his team vs Vandy. I'm sure Pinkel was embarassed he lost to IU. Duke vs Miami...ordinarily you wouldn't have any game involving Duke on this list in football season, but things seem diffferent at Duke....are they for real this season? Miami inspite of the loss at Lincoln looks solid to me. Wazzu at Utah...more late night Pac12 magic? Not sure I'll still be up for this one though.
Wazzu/Utah is an evening game. (7Central) Kes and I will be in attendance. Look for the only two guys wearing Cougar stuff. 8)
Charlie Strong tossed another player...Kennedy Estelle a very good Jr. OT who was not playing due to be suspended already but was thought to be ready to comeback and play the 2nd half of the season. He was a big time recruit. Gone. Rumors of course are that he failed a drug test..but nobody of course knows for sure.
I wouldn't piss on Jerry if he was on fire! :twisted: I don't know Sid, I haven't been to a Cougar game since they played Ohio St way back in the day... they haven't been winning much since, so who knows how well they travel now. I got my own... knowing how lame Kes is with the kid's stuff, I couldn't trust him! :wink:
Terry, Thanks for that correction. I must have had Whisky on my mind when I typed that bit of information. :wink:
UCLA vs ASU is also a Thursday night game...should be a good game as well. Except I think the ASU starting QB is out.
8) My spies in Phoenix tell me that ASU has called for a total "black out" against UCLA. Everyone is supposed to wear black and many students have been issued free tickets to the game to swell the noise level against the Bruins...
Although not in our picks, the Tennessee vs UGA game may be closer than most expect. With a 17 point spread. I would be tempted to make a wager taking the points. If this game were at home I would feel better about it. They do have one huge road game under their belt so there should not be any road surprises in Athens.
