Pick It and Stick It: First Friday And Stinky Spreads

And here we go with another week ‘o picks.  So the Yeti is rushing here a bit to get outta here to soak up some First Friday action, but the Saturday football action is all passing. Not like all things must pass, but more like Big 12 Conference play will be kicking of this weekend and some major bombs will be dropped in the air.  Josh Freeman knocking out quaterback records over at K-State is just one example. With much of the action rolling up to the big Mizzou vs. Nebraska, the Yeti wouldn’t be surprised if the offense spent this weekend in the Big 12 will top the rest of the BCS conferences combined. No seriously.  The Yeti means it. Here’s the picks:

BYU 29 UTSt UTSt UTSt BYU

FrSt 22 Haw FrSt FrSt FrSt

The smarter ones are picking more consistently than the Purple Yeti as he’s desperate for a big comeback.  In fact, if the Yeti picks less than half of the games this week then guest pickers are welcome to send in their picks and try to resurrect this once mighty beast.  Until then, look for some prime time football to shake things up this week. Hey, and boo to Cabbottmtf for picking against his Wildcats.  Strangely enough the spread between K-State and Texas Tech is the smallest margin between the Big 12 games.  Do we smell another top 10 break up from K-State again?  Who knows?  Now off the sniff some art.
