CFB Pickem - Week 3 Results

[War Wagon]

ouch, pretty brutal week for most of us.

Congrats, Shoalzie. You kicked my ass in the FB playoffs as well. Just not my week, but it sure was yours.

[Roger_the_Shrubber]

I"ll take tied for fourth.

[Moby Dick]

Week 4 ill be going AGAINST the gut.

Speak for yourself -- I got a 7 after back-to-back 4's.

Some others who finished near me ('sup, Goobs) were doing even worse than I was going into the week, apparently.

[Carson]

Proud to represent the SECBSH.

The state of Michigan has got it going on in here.

[Shoalzie]

Of course the one loss was me picking against my own team not to cover...damn garbage time scores will get you on those 6+ touchdown spreads. :doh:

[Van]

Shoalzie, just make it your policy to take a pass on Michigan games. You'll enjoy them so much more if you never have to sweat garbage time, or root against your own team to cover.

Problem solved.

The olde LAX approach....

I can't remember the last time Michigan has covered a number that big. If it was under 40 points, I would've stayed away from it and would've have taken either side. My usual move is to stay away from Michigan all together unless they're the underdog and I see a great chance at a cover but not an outright win.

I'm definitely glad I got out of picking Arkansas. It really rested on if Wilson would play but I don't think he would've helped them cover the 3 TD spread.

Va Tech once again lived up to its billing as my personal Pick'Em Kryptonite team. I thought I'd get a pass this week, though, since I was technically picking against Pitt rather than picking them.

On the bright side, if Va Tech was going to cost me a game in the Pick'Em, I'd rather see them lose outright than get a scabdick win and fail to cover. And following the game on my phone it was clear that they were never really in it to start. Either Va Tech is the most overrated team in the country (with the possible exception of Wisconsin), or Pitt is the most schizophrenic team in the country. Or maybe it's a little of both.

lloyd carr teams never covered large spreads because he'd just take a nap during the second half of blowouts against baby seal u. dickrod never had the defense to cover. hoke seems like a different animal. my hope is that his team is that green and needs reps at full speed and will cease this biz once he has all his pieces in place. then again, umass lost by 400 to indiana so probably could have ran backwards and still scored.

nice job shoalz

USC sucks monkey testicles

Sorry for missing the last two weeks. I'm slammed at home with a project and have only remembered when I was in the middle of work and after the deadline had passed. :(

I went with UofM because UMASS got blown out by Indiana. Yes, Indiana. At home even.

if that's because of baby seal u then i must credit mgoblog.

[Van]

It was the "take a nap" thing followed by "baby seal u." The thought of a bored Lloyd Carr just dozing off on the sideline made me laugh.

Smackie Chan's most excellent Friday night T1B Chat/Radio show.

I don't know. I kinda didn't like his snobbish remark, telling me to "chill out" and such.

If the tiara fits....

I hate anybody pulling that shit on me.

So quit trolling as a manic-depressive fag. Problem solved.

Why do you even do that, anyway? What do you get out of it?

And I'm going to have to make Smackie pay for his assuming an authorative tone with me.

When your sole intent is to ruin his show by driving everyone away with your constant flaming homo act, what do you expect? People don't go to Chat to be trolled by the love child of Richard Simmons and Shirley Temple.

[Van]

I'm sure you're positively glorious when covered in pee.

[Mikey]

I just don't like being treated like a 5 year old.

If the shoe fits...
