2. Ohio @ UMass (Hint: Ohio is 3-1; UMass is 0-5)
3. Ole Miss @ #1 Bama

6. Northwestern @ #10 Wisconsin
7. Air Force @ New Mexico

To be clear, Southern Cal is playing Washington State. All of West Texas likes Washington State, because Mike Leach is the coach.

Chas’ flips of the coin says:
1. Gotta pick the Tigers
2. Ohio. How can UMass lose 5 games so early in the season?
3. Bama, of course
4. Michigan State
5. Dawgs
6. Wisconson. Never bet on Northwestern. They recruit scholars.
7. Air Force
8. UCLA
9. Bowling Green

Chas- UMass has only won 10 games since moving up to the FBS in 2012. That’s how they are 0-5 now. They were not a bad team in the lower division, usually winning 5 or 6 games each year.

I hope it’s not too late to get my picks in! My main computer crashed a few days ago and I’m stuck using my phone and a tablet too small to really work on. I’ve left it to the last minute, and don’t have time to properly investigate the campuses of my toss-up picks. So, I guess the prettiness factor will not be weighed in my guesses—I mean carefully thought out choices. :–) Here goes:
1. Clemson
2. Ohio
3. Bama
4. Michigan St
5. Georgia
6. Wisconsin
7. Air Force
8. Colorado
9. Akron
10. Washington 24-21

Okay, I’ll let Tychicus in. I set the earlier time because I thought of having the Duke game which started already. So, if anyone else wants to join us, you have until 10:30 EDT, or 3 hours and 3 minutes from now.

I guess I’ll be keeping the Malibu, unless Washington State scores 90 points in the second half. But since USC already has 17, mumsee’s prediction won’t be exact.

Congratulations, Kevin! You were really, really close on the tie-breaker.

Yeah, Kevin. Only 2 points off. I believe that is the closest anyone has ever gotten in this contest. And Mumsee got the farthest anyone has ever gotten- 91 points away! I guess I won’t be driving a 17 year old car to Idaho.

If you had included Gamecocks in the mix, I would have been in company with Mumsee, Aj, and Janice.
I really thought they could beat A&M
But they don’t have a running game.
