It’s here, folks. Rivalry Week (said in a deep voice with lots of reverberation, but not yelled like a furniture store ad). The one week when national rankings take second place to beating that arch rival. The team with the better record is basically even with the team who hasn’t won much, especially if the game is at the team with the worse record. So, pick carefully, as you never know what could happen this week.

I won the last contest, so I picked the tie breaker. I usually pick my hometown team, but decided to make the tie breaker more of a challenge. So pick the winner of the Michigan-Ohio State game, and the final score.

Also, most of these games are Friday, so get the picks in before NOON EST on Friday, November 25. No national rankings this week since it’s Rivalry Week, except for the tie breaker. (If you want the rankings, go to http://www.espn.com/college-football/rankings.)

  1. Washington @ Washington State

  2. Boise State @ Air Force -This isn’t a rivalry that I’m aware of, but Mumsee enjoys having this one in the mix.)

  3. Nebraska @ Iowa – These two haven’t always been rivals, but since Nebraska joined the B1G 10, it is becoming a major rivalry, especially since Iowa State hasn’t been much of a challenge for the Hawkeyes lately.

  4. Georgia Tech @ Georgia

  5. Mississippi State @ Ole Miss

  6. Florida @ Florida State

  7. Virginia @ Virginia Tech

  8. Auburn @ Alabama (I believe I could call this one “Kim vs Kbells”, but they might be on the same side. I could be wrong on that.)

  9. Notre Dame @ USC

10. Tie Breaker-pick winner and final score: #3 Michigan @ #2 Ohio State (The winner just might end up in the National Championship Game.)

The election and the World Series are over. Now it’s time to get down to the real event of autumn: College Football. So, pick your winners and guess the tie breaker. Entries must be received by 12 NOON EST, Saturday, November 12, 2016 in order to be eligible for the prize. And you know what that means. Actually, I don’t either. Since I am so sleepy after staying up for election returns, there are 2 extra pillow fights this week.

Here they are:

   1. Baylor @ #11 Oklahoma

   2. South Carolina @ Florida

   3. Kentucky @ Tennessee

   4. Minnesota @ #19 Nebraska

   5. #20 USC @ #4 Washington

   8. Almost B1G 10 Pillow Fight: Rutgers (2-7) @ Michigan State (2-7)

   9. Big 12 Pillow Fight: Iowa State (1-8) @ Kansas (1-8)

 10. Tie breaker and SEC East Pillow Fight: Pick winner and final score: Vanderbilt (1-4 SEC) @ Mizzou (0-5 SEC)

CUBS WIN! Oh, wrong sport. Let’s see who else can win, other than the “Queen of the Pigskin Picks”. Or, should I say “Princess” to keep with the P alliteration? Anyway, kbells won again (#5) and picked a B1G 10 game for the tie breaker. I picked the other games based on nothing more than fan favorites or my feelings. Get those guesses in by 10:00 PM EDT Friday when Boise State takes the field. 

  1 San José St @ #24 Boise St

  2 Navy vs Notre Dame (In Jacksonville, FL)

  3 Air Force @ Army

  4 #4 Texas A&M @ Mississippi St.

  8 Mizzou @ South Carolina 

  9 Pillow Fight: Florida Atlantic @ Rice 

10 Tie Breaker: Pick winner and final score: #10 Nebraska @ #6 Ohio State

Another week, another chance at fame without fortune. Okay, it’s only Wandering Views fame, anyway. Pick the winners of these ten college football games, and guess closest to the score of the tie breaker, and all this can be yours! Just think, an opportunity many will miss, mainly because they are more interested in other things like Pokémon Go or presidential debates. Have at it, just get the guesses in before 12 NOON Saturday. Will Travis 3-peat? Will Kbells win for her 3rd time? Find out later.

1. 1. North Texas @ Army

2. 2. UMass @ So. Carolina

3. 3. #10 Wisconsin @ Iowa

4. 4. Hawaii @ Air Force

5. 5. Memphis @ #24 Navy

10. 10. Tie breaker: Guess Winner and final score: TCU @ #12 West Virginia

It’s Autumn and leaves are falling. It’s week 7 in college football, and some teams’, hopes for a good bowl bid are falling. Seven is a lucky number, so maybe those teams will get lucky and win. And maybe you’ll guess the winners correctly in all ten of the games listed below and win! No prize, just bragging rights and the opportunity to pick the next tie breaker game. Ricky Weaver’s son Travis won last week, and his dog, “Presidential Candidate Arnold Weaver”, picked an SEC showdown for this week. Pick the winner and score of that game. Get those guesses in by 12 NOON Saturday, October 15, 2016.
