Peter’s Pack of Pickled Pigskin Picks 2016-Week 12
On the 12th week of college football, your Pigskin Picker gives to you: 10 games to guess the winners, with one bring a tie breaker. You know the rules, so go for it.
You need to post your guesses by Friday, 9:00 P.M.
1. UNLV @ #22 Boise State
2. Morgan State @ Army
3. Florida @ #24 LSU
4. #14 Virginia Tech @ Notre Dame
5. Navy @ East Carolina
6. #11 Oklahoma @ #16 West Virginia
7. Air Force @ San José State
8. Arizona (2-8) @ Oregon State (2-8) (Sadly this is the PAC-12 Pillow Fight)
9. Pillow Fight: Texas State (2-8) @ New Mexico St. (2-7)
10. Tie Breaker: Guess winner and final score: #23 Washington State @ #12 Colorado (When did Colorado get good again?)
Here is the winning entry. The rest of you needn’t post your guesses.
1. Boise State
2. Army
3. LSU
4. Virginia Tech
5. Navy
6. Oklahoma
7. Air Force
8. Arizona
9. NMSU (Funny thing, my Alma mater was NMSU, but it was in Missouri, not New Mexico.)
10. Colorado 35-24
I just realized that the LSU Florida game is a make up from week 6 when the game was postponed because of Hurricane Matthew. At that time I suggested adding an extra game when that game was rescheduled in order to keep each week at 10 games. So, I am going to add a game from the B1G 10, since I didn’t include them. So, if you have already entered, please post your guess for the game below. If you have not posted, please include this game:
Indiana @ Minnesota
Also, the rankings above are old, as the new rankings hadn’t come out when I made the list. New rankings are:
Boise #20
Florida #23
LSU #16
Va Tech – unranked
Oklahoma # 9
West Va # 14
Colorado # 10
Washington St. #22
If you want to change one of your games due to my mistake, do so.
1. Go Boise
2 Army
3. Florida. (They moved the ball well against Gamecocks.)
4 Va. Tech
5. E. Carolina (Pirates beat Midshipmen)
6. Oklahoma
7. Air Force
8. Arizona
9. Texas State
10 Colorado 14-7
Oy veh. I was in a hurry, so I crossed lines and made another mistake. Indiana is at #3 Michigan. Northwestern is at Minnesota. Please pick between Northwestern and Minnesota, as the other is almost a gimme.
Sorry for the confusion. And I stand by my choice of Minnesota.
1. Boise State (rooting with my big sister here)
2. Army
3. LSU
4. Notre Dame
5. Navy
6. Oklahoma
7. Air Force
8. Arizona
9. New Mexico St
10. Colorado 21-7
Makeup: Minnesota
Guess who won? I did! I did say above, “The rest of you needn’t post your guesses.” didn’t I? No, I didn’t go get votes from the graveyard or find illegal immigrants to vote for me. Nor did I pay players on certain teams to throw the game. I just got lucky this week that a couple of games went my way.
Here are the results:
I had 9 correct, and even got within 3 points of the tie breaker.
Kbells and Kevin got 8
Chas 7
Kim, Ricky and Tychicus 6
AJ and Travis 5.
Here are my picks, I am running a little late last week.
Here is the winning entry. The rest of you needn’t post your guesses.

2. Army
3. LSU
4. Virginia Tech
5. Navy

8. Arizona
9. NMSU
10. Colorado 35-24
BSU 42 UNLV 25
Army 60 Morgan St 3
Florida 16 LSU 10
Va Tech 34 ND 31
Navy 66 ECU 31 (Looks like the military academies had good offensive games)
OK 56 WVU 28
Air Force 41 SJSU 38
Or St 42 Arizona 17 😦
NMSU 50 Tx St 10
Colorado 38 Wash St 24
Minn 29 NW 12
We’ll be back to a 10 game format next week. And for once I don’t need to wait for someone else to tell me the choice for tie breaker.

So Kevin roots along with his big sister but not his older brother? Well, he picked my team, anyway, but didn’t say anything about it.
