Peter’s Pack of Pickled Pigskin Picks 2017-Week 14
It all comes down to this, folks. The final hurrah of the regular season. Conference Championship Week is upon us. So, since there are only 7 conference championship lined up, we’ll have to wait another week to decide our final winner, as the winner of last weeks effort, yours truly, decided to make the Army-Navy game the tie breaker. So here are the 7 big games, and a couple of games from the FCS (the Division 1-AA), for you to pick. Get those guesses in by Friday night, December 1, @8:00EST, when the PAC-12 decides its champion.
1. PAC-12: Stanford vs USC
2. American Athletic: Memphis vs Central Florida
3. Big 12: TCU vs Oklahoma
4. SEC: Georgia vs Auburn
5. Mountain West: Fresno State Vs Boise State
6. ACC: Miami vs Clemson
7. B1G Ten: Ohio State vs Wisconsin
8. SWAC: Alcorn State vs Grambling
9. FCS 2nd round: Northern Iowa vs South Dakota State
10. Tie breaker (December 9)- guess winner and final score: Army vs Navy
This looks to be the most challenging week of all, since most of the teams are in the Top 10, and all the games mean something. Some of the winners will be in the national Championship Series. Stay tuned!

Peter, this week I switched from loyal fan to cutthroat realist. After all, I once said I would never pick USC or Ohio State. Well, if I had thought that Ohio State was the better choice I would have picked them, and I did pick USC (*gasp*).
After yesterday you’d better hope your loyalty to Navy pays off.
I see. So, Kevin, you’re saying that if Navy wins I win? Well, you’re correct.
Currently:
Kevin 7
Chas, Ricky, and I 6
Mumsee and Tychicus 5
AJ 4
I am the only one to pick Navy, so if Navy wins, Kevin and I would be tied, but I would win based on the tie breaker. If Army wins, Kevin wins since he would have 1 more than Chas and Ricky.
first time in all these years!.
I enjoyed guessing on the games. Sometimes, not always, I would print out my guesses and follow the scores on Saturdays. Just something to make it more interesting.
Thank Peter.

Am I the only Navy fan here, or are some of you thinking realistically since Army is having a better year then Navy?

It’s going to be a long week.

Gamecocks play the Michigan Wolverines in the Outback bowl.
It’s a young team, so the additional practice will help for next year.

Doesn’t Chas also have 7?

You’re correct, Kevin. I had him marked for the wrong team on one of them. Sorry. So Chas could win again if Army wins.

Final score: Army 14 Navy 13. Chas wins because he was only 7 points off.
Final results – add 1 to all previous scores except mine.
Congrats, Chas! You won twice this year!
