Peter’s Pack of Pickled Pigskin Picks 2021 Week 12

Here we are at week twelve. You’d think this would be the last week of college football since the regular season is 12 games for each team. But no. There are 2 more weeks because of bye weeks, plus the conference championships. So we get at least three more weeks to get a perfect 10 correct. Think someone will do that? Wait and see.

Janice won last week and picked two lesser known schools for the tiebreaker. Be sure to get in your entry by NOON Saturday, November 20.

  1  #7 Michigan State @ #4 Ohio State

  2 #10 Wake Forest @ Clemson

  3 Florida State @ Boston College

  4 #21 Arkansas @ #2 Alabama

  5 East Carolina @ Navy

  6 Florida @ Missouri

  7 UCLA @ USC

  8 Auburn @ South Carolina

  9 #11 Baylor @ Kansas State

 10 Tie breaker (pick winner and final score) : Arkansas State @ Georgia State

Psalm 101

Of David. A psalm.

1 I will sing of your love and justice;
    to you, Lord, I will sing praise.
2 I will be careful to lead a blameless life—
    when will you come to me?

   I will conduct the affairs of my house
    with a blameless heart.
3 I will not look with approval
    on anything that is vile.

   I hate what faithless people do;
    I will have no part in it.
4 The perverse of heart shall be far from me;
    I will have nothing to do with what is evil.

5 Whoever slanders their neighbor in secret,
    I will put to silence;
   whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart,
    I will not tolerate.

6 My eyes will be on the faithful in the land,
    that they may dwell with me;
   the one whose walk is blameless
    will minister to me.

7 No one who practices deceit
    will dwell in my house;
   no one who speaks falsely
    will stand in my presence.

8 Every morning I will put to silence
    all the wicked in the land;
   I will cut off every evildoer
    from the city of the Lord.

Psalm 100

A psalm. For giving grateful praise.

1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Worship the Lord with gladness;
    come before him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the Lord is God.
    It is he who made us, and we are his;
    we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.

4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving
    and his courts with praise;
    give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
    his faithfulness continues through all generations.

Anyone have something to share?

Psalm 99

1 The Lord reigns,
    let the nations tremble;
   he sits enthroned between the cherubim,
    let the earth shake.
2 Great is the Lord in Zion;
    he is exalted over all the nations.
3 Let them praise your great and awesome name—
    he is holy.

4 The King is mighty, he loves justice—
    you have established equity;
   in Jacob you have done
    what is just and right.
5 Exalt the Lord our God
    and worship at his footstool;
    he is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests,
    Samuel was among those who called on his name;
   they called on the Lord
    and he answered them.
7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud;
    they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.

8 Lord our God,
    you answered them;
   you were to Israel a forgiving God,
    though you punished their misdeeds.
9 Exalt the Lord our God
    and worship at his holy mountain,
    for the Lord our God is holy.
