I thought Vandy vs SC was a coin toss. Musschamp and Offense are 2 words that don’t go together. They didn’t at Florida and don’t at SC.

Vandy sucks but SC ain’t a juggernaut except at losing.

Loserville sucks. I thought Buck, Vault and TVZ said they were the soon to be champs because of their new coach. (1-3...)

I looked at 2 teams that were 1-2. The Vile has had 3 TOS in about every game with their lone win vs W KY where they had I think 3 TOS. GA Tech has played decent at times and they’re at home. Add in my personal bias I have towards the Vile and I took GA Tech.

Oklahoma (@ the COTTON BOWL)——FOX——Lincoln Riley ain’t the best coach in the Big XII or even the State of Oklahoma. He has no idea about how to win with the clock. Up 14 pts with 5 mins to go and he passes on 3rd down when a 40 second runoff would have all but sealed it on their final drive???? It’s like Leach and Holgorsen taught him clock management. Insane!!!!
UNC——abc——Hokies had 15 players out including the secondary due to COV19. Probably a difference maker.
USC (the gamecocks) ——SECN
A&M—-espn—-hats off Jimbo you beat a better team with your better play calling.

3:30
the Great Matt Campbell’s ——abc—-called this one early
UGA——cbs——UGA don’t blow a 16 pt 4th qtr lead

4:00
Auburn——SECN——-refs blew a call by blowing the whistle early or Arkansas pulls the upset. Arkansas is a lot better than people thought.
BC ——-ACCN——-oh I love when that $#!+ loses. BC still sux and so does Massachusetts but in this case it the revenge of Buckner.
K State——-FOX

Bama——ESPN——calling it with 3:16 left. As pathetic as Bama’s D has been tonight, they’re not blowing an 11 pt lead. Only Lincoln Riley and Oklahoma could do that and they’ve almost done it 3 weeks in a row.

7:30
Clemson——-abc———calling it early The U ain’t back—-need Nevin Shapiro
UK——-SECN———calling itself early cause Miss State is insane with play calling and can’t beat a zone

Long live ball!!!!

@WVex-pat in GA your turn

Sorry for the delay, waiting for visitors from the weekend to depart. Once again we had many ties across the board; 6 players with 9 correct out of 13 picks. The tie-breaker winner with 48 points in the KSU/TCU game (35 actual) was @FallingRun84 . Congrats!

Whoops! I fat-fingered that on my spreadsheet and had it as 58, but you are right, your original post had 38 pts. So Skyhawkball wins the tiebreaker and the week. Is that like 3 in a row?

I think I’ve got a few of the tiebreakers, but I just wish I would actually bet on the picks with real money! Lol
