Peter’s Pack of Pickled Pigskin Picks 2017-Week 3

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.

Memories of KBells

As you all know, we recently lost our good friend KBells (Kathy) due to illness. Losing a friend is never easy, but take heart, for she sits with our Lord, and we shall see her again. Until then we will continue to lift up her family in prayer and ask the Lord to ease their pain and loss, for they feel it more than anyone.

One way to remember her is to think back to better days and the friendship she gave us all. So this post is a chance to do so. If you would be so kind, please share your favorite KBells story, long or short, or a note or prayer you’d like to pass along to her family. We’re going to share these memories with her husband Tim and The Kid (Chris).

Thanks.
