It’s World Series time! And just what does baseball have to do with the Pigskin Picks? Not much. Except this year the two MLB teams playing are both perennial losers who are having a great year. So, in honor of that, this week’s picks include lots of perennial losers. So, four pillow fights instead of one, all three military academies and three games involving once-great teams on the comeback trail (Auburn, Nebraska and Florida State). Have fun, folks. Don’t forget to get those guesses in by 7:00PM EDT Friday, as two of the military academy games are under Friday night lights. And remember to pick the score of the tie breaker, chosen by last week’s winner (for the 4th time), Kbells.
Pillow Fight #1– UConn (3-5) @ Eastern Carolina (2-5)
Pillow Fight #2– UNLV (3-5) @ San Jose St. (2-6)
Pillow Fight #3– Georgia St (2-5) @ South Alabama (3-4)
Pillow Fight #4– Louisiana Monroe (2-5) @ Arkansas State (2-4)
Comeback attempt #1– #7 Nebraska @ #11 Wisconsin
Comeback attempt #2– #3 Clemson @ #12 Florida State
Military Academy #1– #22 Navy @ South Florida
Military Academy #2– Air Force @ Fresno State
Military Academy #3– Army @ Wake Forest
10. Tie Breaker; Pick winner and final score (Comeback attempt #3): #15 Auburn @ Ole Miss
