4th and inches … THIS YEAR’S BCS CONN JOB
Dec 6th
AUBURN vs. OREGON in the BCS National Championship … No doubt, it will be an exciting clash between two turbo-powered, undefeated teams featuring the Tigers’ Heisman Trophy winner-to-be, Cam Newton.
Three of the other four BCS games offer exciting matchups, too, including TCU vs. Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl, Ohio State vs. Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl, and Stanford vs. Virginia Tech in the Orange Bowl.
The big wart in this year’s BCS lineup is the Fiesta Bowl. Oklahoma is worthy, but let’s face it, Connecticut is a joke. More >
2011 – Week One Game Picks
Sep 1st
Most of the match-ups this week are pretty clearcut. I’m going out on a limb and picking Maryland at home over a demoralized Miami squad. I’m also breaking from the crowd and picking Army to upset Northern Illinois in DeKalb. If Dan Persa was healthy enough to play at full speed – he is doubtful this week – I would pick Northwestern over Boston College and their thin secondary without any hesitation. As it is, I am doubting my decision to call for a Wildcat win.
