WEEK 12 RECAP
Skippypbm, heuplek, hoofhearted, and seikoh went 6-0 and the worst record was 3-3? Almost makes me feel warm n fuzzy inside. I don't, but almost.
Harrinpa has officially become my autocorrect's lead suggestion for "H-a-r" as well as leading the contest. TUG and SOUP are just behind by 2 & 3 points respectively and then a whole squabble of 4th placers are hoping to make some genuine Pick6 ChaosTM
WEEK 13 GAMES
It's rivalry week across the CFB world and with Thanksgiving and the corresponding Black Friday burnout, a lot of games are being played on Friday. So we get the leftovers on Saturday to pick through!
(2)anOhio State at (3)Michigan (M -3.5)
The main course entree for Saturday - They're #s 2 & 3 and the broadcasters are just going to talk about one big turkey. You just know someone's floated the idea of doing a Peyton/Eli-esque broadcast during the game with him and a sock puppet he's made. And yes, the puppet is the more mentally stable persona.
Tammies at (12)LSU (LSU -10.5)
Brian Kelly looks like a sweet potato and the Yammies are roasted marshmallow brittle and soft. Can the Ghost of Jimbo get better results than the Living Ghost of Jimbo?
(24)JMU at Coastal Carolina (JMU -9.5)
The tofurkey of the day's meal. Sunbelt ain't played nobody, Pawwwwwwl
Washington State at (4) Washington (Wash -16.5)
The green bean casserole: it could be good, it could be bad. It doesn't really affect the rest of the meal in any way though.
UNCheat at NCSU (Cheat -2.5)
The Stuffing/Dressing - A side dish that has the potential to be the best thing on the table this week if it's done right.
California at UCLA (UCLA (-9.5)
Has the late games ever been called the "Midnight SnacPAC?" If not, this is why you failed as a conference!

I just would like to complain that TUG stole my MOJO, it's obvious he wasn't doing well when I was then he shot up and I was/am losing badly!
I dont know ow what voodoo magic this is but I love the effort to win.
getting 404 error when I click the link?
I'm dumb. Fixed now.
So I haven't done the pick six, but being home for the holidays, I headed to the Bristol Casino and made some college hoops and football bets for this week. So far, here are the results:
MBB
UConn -5.5 and UCLA +4.5 That was a winner!
Tennessee -12.5, Indiana -7.5, and Gonzaga +4.5- I came close thanks to a big Indiana comeback, but the Zags imploded in the second half. LOSER
CFB
Bowling Green +3.5 and Buffalo -5.5- Loeffler State answered the bell, but the Buffs stunk LOSER
Oregon -13.5, Iowa +1.5, Missouri -7.5
Ohio State and NC State, both moneyline bets as underdogs
Tough slate of games to pick this week, I like this potential chaos! The best perk of being top of the charts for so many weeks is infiltration of your autocorrect, I can only hope for continued success
After unexpected good reviews, receiving a 6 out 6 review from critics, the writers would like to thank its fan(s) for tolerating the many plot twists and strange developments in the show. As a tribute to the Westminster Dog Show that always comes on after the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, we present the final episode of "Picksburg"......The town is in lock down after animals have escaped from the zoo again and have infiltrated the local dog show. No one is safe. The zookeeper, Brutus, is able to use mixed signals to confuse a ferocious wolverine and prevent it from causing more damage to the judges selecting who goes on to the championship. A pure bred Collie called "the First Lady of Aggieland" is cornered by a tiger after her coach was fired for not winning enough. A bulldog puts put his dukes and knocks out some kind of weird rooster with a chandelier on its head. The owners of the bulldog are convinced these heroics are enough to qualify for future shows only to be told that the pedigree of the bulldog is not good enough yet. An undefeated Husky lures a stalking cougar into the walk-in freezer where it succumbs to the cold allowing the Husky to advance to the championship unscathed. A small pack of wolves is mistaken as contestants by senile old Mack Brown, who takes them home and allows them to "play" with his rams. It does not end well for his herd. Meanwhile, outside the dog show, a golden and bruin bear are fighting over which is better, Atlantic coastal or mid-western BIG fish, the bruin uses its more expensive claws to put down the golden bear.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Man, I suck this year.

Early week thoughts:
Michigan's played no one with a pulse; im leaning Ohio state
No strong feelings on TAMU, but in NFL I've learned to never bet against a team that just fired their coach so prob TAMU
JMU prob has a bounce back after getting embarrassed but I could also see the wind sucked out of their sails a little impacting the game
Washington has a great qb I'll take that one
Feel like state beat us because we sucked at game planning or adjusting def, can't see Unc allowing the same thing to happen and they like to air it out more which drones did fine with against state once they dialed it up
No idea what to think of cal and ucla, so hot and cold
They're yes and they're no? They're in and they're out, they're up and they're down?
California Gurls
Had a couple changes in opinion since my early week post. May the odds be ever in your favor
Damnit why did I change. I told myself don't bet against a team who just fired their coach

Bad, odd, strange week. Happy and sad...Beat loluva.
Keeping you in my thoughts Brent-
Kinda cheesy, but still appropriate...
'Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.'
Thank you. Was a rough day, but VT and Marshall up big so far is helping.
At least i finished ahead of the pack in the tiny ESPN confidence pick-em group...
We have championship week to go there. I might be able to move up from tied for second there.
Dangit. I can't even get that right. Man, November has NOT been my month.
Well, you finished the regular season in first. I can agree with that.
I was doing so well...then I only got 1 this week :( . I still have a chance - I just need to 6-0 and have everyone else(or at least the 9 folks ahead or tied with me go 0-6 AND win whatever the tiebreaker for the season is....
#GoACC got nothin' on #Pick6Chaos, Pawwwl!
