Week 11 2012: FRIDAY PICK BONANZA!

Posted on November 9, 2012 by gamedaycole

Sorry for the lack of updates this week. I’m going to go ahead and blame… the presidential election I guess….for my lack of posts as opposed to my own laziness since it is convenient. What does that mean for you? That means we are making it rain picks on a fantastic Friday! I am flying over the country in a crop duster releasing all of the picks I have collected this week, so get ready because here we go! The only two experts to take Texas A&M over Alabama so far are Brian Griese (who has struggled heavily this season) and Skip Bayless (make of that what you will). Pretty much everyone is picking KState over TCU, even though everyone is saying TCU has the best chance to upset one of the big four this week. ESPN continues to troll me heavily, as I removed Brock Huard from my all-time rankings under the Matt Millen rule for not having enough picks to qualify. No less than 12 hours after I removed him from my rankings, he was choppered into Bristol and appeared on ESPN to make a few picks on CFB Daily and the Experts. Matt Millen also showed up to throw out a pick just to prove a point to me I guess. Matt and Brock, if you’re reading this just know that you’ll have to keep the picks coming if you want all of the fame and prestige that getting ranked on my blog brings. Now then, its time for the picks, so study up.

Week 12 Results (ouch)

Posted on November 21, 2011 by gamedaycole

Here’s the results from Week 12 of our 2011 season. There were some outrageous upsets this weekend, some of which we haven’t seen the likes of since the year of the upset in 2007. Iowa St upset Oklahoma State as a four touchdown dog and there wasn’t anyone who picked that upset. Desmond Howard was the only expert to pick Baylor over Oklahoma. Lou Holtz was the only expert to pick USC over Oregon. If that tells you anything, that tells you that nobody had a good week this week. Our winners this week were Jesse Palmer and Dr. Lou Holtz who both put up 5-1 records (and were pretty much the only ones to put up a reasonable winning week). Tom Luginbill gets the silver star at 6-3. Lee Corso is this week’s bottom of the barrel going 3-9. My girlfriend Jennifer hit another upset special, so its a big week around here.
