Pick It and Stick It: Crusting Over With Joy

pickingnosecrustingwithjoy

We’re in a good mood this week.  Thanksgiving is coming up.  The bowl picture is settling up.  We even have a local team in the running for the Big 12 North title.  Even though we are inching closer to the end of the season, it already has met expectations for entertainment.  We have a little pep in our step.  We also have some games coming up tomorrow that should keep us hopping.  So whistle while you work and check out this week’s Pick It and Stick It:

There are some big, big, big spreads this weekend.  Boise State leads the pack with a big 31 point spread over Idaho.  That’s a rivalry game so we’re thinking they won’t meet it.  Meanwhile on the other side of the spectrum we have California over Arizona by a cool 2 points.   That’s a toss up if we ever saw it.  Speaking of toss up Miami has a close edge over North Carolina followed by a Big 12 knock in Oklahoma State favored by 4 over Texas Tech.  Keep your television tuned in, there may be an upset brewing!
