Week 3 is here. Janice is not available to pick a tie breaker so she deferred to me. This week has a pillow fight of sorts. Purdue goes to Mizzou. Both teams have records of 1-1, but have been struggling the last couple of years. Let’s see which one can overcome the blahs. Sorry this intro is not up to past efforts, but who reads this part, anyway?
The first game is Friday night @ 10:15 EDT, so pick before then.
1. Baylor @ Duke
2. #23 Tennessee @ #24 Florida
3. Notre Dame @ Boston College
4. Oregon State @ #21 Washington State
5. #12 LSU @ Mississippi State
6. Kentucky @ So. Carolina
7. #3 Clemson @ #14 Louisville
8. Idaho @ Western Michigan
9. Pillow Fight: Pur-don’t @ Mizz-ew
10. Tie breaker: Pick winner and score – Arizona @ UTEP
PS- There is no prize, especially no car to win. You get bragging rights and the chance to pick the next tie breaker game. Nothing else. Nada. Zip. Zilch.
1 Devils take the Baptists this time’
2 Florida
3 Irish
4 Washington State
5 LSU Tigers
6 Gamecocks
7 Tigers in a tight one
8 Western Michigan ???
9 Go Boilermakers!
10 Arizona 21-14
1. Baylor
2. Tennessee
3. Boston College
4. Washington State
5. LSU
6. Kentucky
7. Clemson
8. Western Michigan – Go Broncos! (The first week they looked like they might pull off an upset over University of Spoiled Children, but got clobbered in the 4th quarter.)
9. Purdue
10. Arizona 28-21
So mumsee reads the intro. I guess I won’t use the Latin filler some publishers use as demo text next time. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit…
I’m guessing it’s the week of the cat:
Duke (Even if they are Devils)
Gators
BC (Eagles, I think)
Cougars
Purple Tigers
Roosters
Orange Tigers
Vandals
Tamed Tigers
Wildcats 45-24
And it comes down to the tie breaker. Chas continued his winning ways, but in the end, he loses to Tychicus, because Tychicus came “closer” on the tie breaker. Both of these gentlemen got 8 correct, but Tychicus was “only” 42 points off the tie breaker game to Chas’ 51 off. The final score in that game was Arizona 63, UTEP 16. At any rate, Tychicus is declared the winner this week. So he gets to pick the tie breaker for next week, unless he wants to let Janice have her choice, since she deferred last week.
Our results; Ty and Chas 8; Rickweaver 7; Kevin 6; myself, AJ, and Debra 5; kare, mumsee and Janice 4.
Duuuuuuuke!

I would have won if I hadn’t picked Gamecocks over the ‘Cats. But have to go with the Garnet and Black.

I meant in. I did not mean that I am good company. That is ridiculous.
On another note, I have no idea why I did not win or any idea of what four I got right.

And I see I won in regards to inconsistency for the proceeding two weeks. It takes a lot of talent to do that!

If Janice has a certain game that she’d like to choose for the tiebreaker, then I defer to her. Otherwise, I’ll take TCU @Oklahoma St.

Ty- I was going to have that as one of the games. So if I don’t hear from Janice by tomorrow night, it’ll be TCU and OSU.
