I will be happy as long as I finish in the Top 10!
Alabama – Auburn will probably play tough in the first half, but Alabama will cover.
Pitt - Just cuz.
Florida – Big spread, but I have very little confidence that Florida State will be able to keep up.
Georgia Tech – Not sure about this one, I’ll go with the favorite.
Ok State – Oklahoma may win, but not by 10.
Idaho – Will probably be a competitive game.
New Mexico State – The battle for the worst of the WAC.
Navy - Sorry Hawaii.
BOISE STATE!!! – I guessing by more than 14!
Tie Breaker: 80 – mostly BSU!

Hovering...
Auburn (+10) rivalry game, at home, ’Bama’s bad offense… this game could be 10-7
Pittsburgh (pk) I’ll take Pitt just because I got family there
Florida (-24.5) senior day in the Swamp. Tebow will want to do something. Plus FSU sucks
Georgia Tech (-7.5) tech will control the ball, and the dogs won’t have a chance
Oklahoma State (+10) never thought I’d be rooting for OU… but for the love of god, come on OU!
Idaho (-3) Vandals close out the season with a win
New Mexico State (+11) the wife would call this game “the battle of the retards” Apropos don’t ya think?
Hawaii (+10) with Pearl Harbor right there, does this really count as a road game for Navy?
Boise State (-14) I am scared to death of this game. Lingering effects of 69-67 I think. Please, defense, I beg you… don’t overpursue.

I don’t want to be a whiner, but I need all the help I can get. My correct guesses from last week’s Pick ‘Em weren’t added to my total this week. Not that it will help me that much. Just trying to save face a little. Thanks.

Oh well, there's always next year.....
Auburn (10) — too many points for a rivalry game against a horrible offense (Alabama, for those who haven’t been paying attention this season)
Pittsburgh (pk) — easiest pick this week
Florida State (24.5) — again, too many points for a rivalry game against a team with nothing to lose
Georgia (7.5) — do I really need to repeat myself a third time???
Oklahoma (-10) — the Sooners need to prove something
Utah State (3) — Idaho hasn’t been able to stop the run yet
San Jose State (-11) — farewell, Dick
Navy (-10) — Hawaii decides to quit playing after going down early 3-0
Boise State (-14) — if the Broncos needed a statement game, this is it…….Go get ’em!!!
Total Points — 87
