Pick It and Stick It: Running Down A New Season

Leave a comment

Okay here’s the first pick it list of the year and it’s a doozy.  If you remember from last year, a number of us had to eat some missed weeks and totally blew our picks.  So, in response to that, anyone can miss can have their lowest 2 scores knocked off.  Worried about competition?  Well, we have added the Top 25 AND the Big 12 into the mix to make sure our confidence points are all over.  Not only do you have to pick against the spread, but now you have to make sure your confidence counts.  With that said, let’s check out the first week of picks.

Okay, Big 12 wise we have some mega cakewalk work.  All except Kansas State and UCLA.  Well okay Illinois may put up a fight against Missouri, but we’re sold on the Tigers offense sans the sexual predator.  For the rest of the field, the only big games we see are the LSU vs North Carolina game, the TCU vs Oregon State game, and  Boise St. vs Virginia Tech game.  Someone on this blog picked LSU in the BCS National Championship Game, so we all will go with the Tigers.  One of the two BCS busters will lose this weekend and we’re going with Boise State.  Yeah, they will be overrated this year.  You heard it here somewhat last.  Check back Tuesday for the results!
