Pickem's Discussion Thread

[Red_Alert]

I watched SDSU play too many times this year to pick against them.

Yeah, I should'a known better. I thought the cold might benefit Buffalo and they looked better defensively on paper.

I think I got burned by taking SDSU in pick'ems a couple of times this season and talked myself out of them.

You don't know which SDSU you're gonna get week to week.

 

[Red_Alert]

I believe you lost that last week, there must have been some doozies in that pick em.

We ought to do a reverse pickem. It actually takes talent to go completely defeated.:rollseyes:

My trend is the earlier I enter my pick'ems the worse I do. I don't know why. I don't look at other's picks and I used the same methodology every week.

Buffalo was really a bad pick. They were never really in that game from the get go.

Do I still have a buffer? I haven't kept track.

You are at least four games ahead of me. Not sure if others have gained on you, I have not that is for sure. Whoever was in third fourth and fifth certainly could have.

Week 14 you gained four on me by getting all of different picks your way.
Week 15 the three different picks went my way.

Actually that is not true. They struggled early but then found their groove and were a pretty good consistent team. Their games were fun to watch this year. Their losses that bookended their season were really bad losses.

I didn't see it that way. That last loss to UNLV (19-45) was ugly, and of their other 4 wins they were all less than a TD with two coming in OT.

Buffalo was never in the game though. So there's no denying who the better prepared team was.

Even though I was the only person to pick Colorado St, no one is undefeated through the first 4 games.

But 1 guy is a winless 0-4. Lots of games left to catch up FNG.

I can make a big comeback!

Pick'ems was pretty even as to who thinks what.

I can make a big comeback!

Then again, maybe not (0-5)

How come your Bowl Mania picks are so much different than your Husker Pick'ems?

You're (3-2) there.

He's using reverse psychology .....

Husker Pick'ems is what he really thinks. He used a coin-flip to pick his Bowl Mania.

Not realizing he was tossin' a double headed coin.

Max Bullough of Michigan State suspended and I took Michigan State.

Look on the bright side, no Nebraska players have been suspended but Georgia has lost two. Somehow, if Nebraska can figure out how to pass against the Georgia pass defense(which ain't that hot) there could be a silver lining. If I was Georgia I am going to jump the receiver if I see him go to the sideline for that patented Tim Beck one yard pass play.

It might have been Miller Lights fault for my picks.

 

[HuskerinBig10]

Devin Gardner is not starting for Michigan. It will be a freshman QB with his first start in a bowl game.

Looks like my strategy of picking most of the B1G teams is going to backfire.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I have KState winning that game due to better coaching en sech.

The same reason I have Clemson beating Ohio State
