well im a big ol dumbass...went and did my pick'ems tonight...

no clue there were a shit load of games tonight ..life has been hectic lately..and lo and behold I picked a few games that were already in progress/almost over/ or already over ..

0-4.

And last year's national champ opened with a loss.

Lots of football to be played yet. Hardly appropriate to compare a team after 13 games to one having played 1. A power five road win is still something to celebrate.

There's a certain team whose offense looked pretty flat last night; the QB threw three int's including a pick six and missed a lot of open receivers; and they were never really close, and yet all of the press (i.e. ESPN) is saying they're on the right track.

TCU is your typical non- power team with undersized lines on both sides of the ball.
Minnesota is a big, lean on ya team with middle of the road athletes and a QB that throws end over end.
Save a fumble inside the 10 yard line by the Gophers, TCU could just have easily lost.
They ain't gonna be playing in any NC match-up this year.

Eh, would it be better to open the season with Alcorn State and win by 50? I agree with Lefty, you take a P5 road win any way you can get it, especially week one.

Minnesota has a good defense, and one of the better secondaries in the country.

Actually I like Georgia Tech a lot. With all the talk of FSU and Clemson, would not be surprised if GT wins the ACC.

Pfff. The ACC? GT would have more of a challenge winning the MAC.

From what I saw last night, so would Oklahoma State. Chips had their chances to win that game.
