And here they are. Ten college football games featuring teams from all over the country and of every imaginable level of competency. We’ve got them right here, folks. The good, the mediocre, and the bad. Maybe even an ugly one. Pick the winners of the most games and you too could win an “ATTABOY/GIRL” from a kind, elderly gentleman, PLUS the opportunity to choose the next tie breaker game. Or you can brag about it on the blog. So have at it, folks. This opportunity only comes up once a week for 14 weeks every Fall.
Remember: guess the score of the tie breaker game as well as the winners of each game by NOON Saturday, September 24.
1 #12 Georgia @ #23 Ole Miss
2 #13 Florida State @ So. Florida
3 #11 Wisconsin @ #8 Michigan State
4 Boise State @ Oregon State
5 #19 Florida @ #14 Tennessee
6 #28 LSU @ Auburn
7 #17 Arkansas @ #10 Texas A&M
8 #9 Washington @ Arizona
9 Pillow Fight: North Texas (1-2) @ Rice (0-3)
10 Tie breaker: Iowa @ Rutgers Pick winner and final score
1. Ole Miss – I see AJ and Kbells look for an upset. I hope they don’t “Miss” that one.
2 So. Florida – After last week, the Gators are definitely overrated. And they play on the road this week.
3. Michigan State – The home teams have a greater advantage this week…
4. Boise State – … except in this game. It’ll be a bad week for Beavers from WI and OR.
5 Tennessee – Another home team proves its mettle.
6 LSU – Another home team gets beaten by a better visitor. Either way, Tigers win this one.
7 Texas A&M – When was the last time the Razorbacks beat a quality Texas school?
8 Arizona – Here’s hoping the home field is an advantage for my Wildcats.
9 North Texas – Neither team is any good, but one has to lose. Why ruin a perfect loss record?
10 Iowa 21 Rutgers 20 – My ties to Iowa run deeper than football ever will, but still I go for the Hawkeyes in B1G games.
Two games to go and it’ll come down to the Arizona vs Washington game to decide the winner. Tychicus has 6 and picked Washington. Janice and I have 5 and both picked Arizona. If Washington wins Tychicus wins. If Arizona wins there will be a three way tie. But I will win since my tie breaker pick was closer to the result than either of the others.
Wait. Tychicus has made many different choices from mine. Does that mean I did not win? Did I win the loser’s bracket? Consolation bracket? Surely there is something I could get a trophy for….participation????

I turned off the TV early too. Gamecocks lost to the Cats 17-10. I could tell they weren’t going to make it.
It doesn’t look like a good year.
