Six Pick: Week Ten

The wheels have come off VT's season, but I'm not quitting you college football. I'll watch to see how badly the SEC West will beat each other up. I'll watch to see if the Big12 learns how to play defense, like grown men should. I'll watch to see if the B1G Ten will do us all a favor and elimate themselves from the playoffs. I'll watch to see if the Pac12 can .... zzzzzz ... zzzzz, where was I again? Oh, I'll watch to see if any ACC team can sneak a win over FSU, just to watch #fsutwitter burn in effigy. Hopefully you will too.

Gameday has loaded up the jalopies full of used couches and is headed to Morgantown, West by God this weekend. Lawd help us. wvu being good again, almost pains me as much as VT being bad. Hopefully, TCU will do us favor and catch Holgo Gumb and the cousins. Win or lose, no silent lambs near wvu this weekend.

Week 11 Games
Thursday, October 30th
Florida State -3.5 at Louisville
7:30 pm ESPN

The clowns that make up #fsutwitter were born during this game

  • One thing we know Louisville will stop the FSU run game with ease. The question is, can they get to Jameis and slow down the pass attack? If yes ...
  • Can Petrino finally have a pulse on offense? He wasn't brought in to be man of the year, he was brought in make UL score points, be exciting and win football games

Pick: FSU by a couple of scores, the Pizza joint isn't that intimidating.

Saturday, November 1st
TCU -5.5 at West Virginia
3:30 pm ABC / ESPN2

  • Dana Holgorsen motivated himself to coach up the neers by shaking off depression through a strict regimen of red bull pounding, milf hunting and 3am casino trips. That's living life right
  • 82 points in a single game, Gary Patterson sold his sold to the B12 devil ... shame on you sir, shame on you

Pick: The Cousins, because I can't have nice things that are football related and well, the neers do well as homedogs.
***

Auburn at Ole Miss -2.5
7:00 pm ESPN

Sent to our friends at the Solid Verbal, that's almost as good as all the ACC Coastal teams finishing 4-4

  • Immovable Object (Ole Miss Defense) meets an Unstoppable Force (Auburn Offense) and this game also features ...
  • Movable Object (Auburn Defense) meets Stoppable Force (Ole Miss ground game) ... now you figure this shit out

Pick: Barners winning outright. When in doubt, Trust in Gus.

Stanford at Oregon -7.5
7:30 pm FOX

He had a long Halloween night, so did the drunk Bro who picked him up at 2am.

  • Stanford has written the gameplan on how to stop Oregon: 3-4 scheme with DE's pinched in and linebackers crushing anything that moves east/west
  • Stanford has written the gameplan on how to stop Stanford: Start Kevin Hogan at QB, ask him to pass

Pick: Oregon and the points, I want to pick Stanford because they have figured out Oregon, but they can't keep winning, can they?
***

Arizona at UCLA -6.5
10:30 pm ESPN

  • Hey Pac12, here's a thought, if you don't want east coast bias, play earlier games so the fans and the media will be awake to see them
  • Wait til you see how bad UCLA is going to be next year without Brett Hundley. At least I know DickRod can plug n play QB's

Pick: Arizona getting the points because I have 0 faith in UCLA outside of Hundley.
***

Utah at Arizona State -5.5
11:00 pm FS1

Because I couldn't leave you with that Oregon Pic

  • Stanford, USC, UCLA and even Arizona has been crowned the Pac12's second best team ... what if it's really the winner of this contest?
  • If I make it this long or at least wake up on the couch at halftime, I really should really watch to see how good Utah might really be

Pick: ASU covering, making Graham's dreamjob in Florida more of a possibility.
