Week 13 Picks
Weak 12 totally bored everyone to death, which I am grateful for actually. It was the one day of the year that I was too busy to even catch scores during the day. I did manage to watch the first half of the Mizzou game, although I must admit it was out of hand early and I fell asleep before halftime after being up ALL night Friday.
Though the previous weekend had none of the upsets we are used to seeing, this weekend starts of with a lot of potential for upsets. But I don't see any happening. It would be too interesting.
Miami 28 Georgia Tech 24
Depending on which Georgia Tech team shows up tonight, we could see the trend of ranked teams going down on Thursday night continue. I am not so sure that will happen.
Ohio State 42 Michigan 0
These two teams always have decent games, but this year it will be a boring one-sided affair that gets out of hand early. Look for the Buckeyes to make a statement and rub some salt in the wounds inflicted by this horrible season.
Florida 68 Citadel 10
The only way the Citadel scores 10 points will be if the Gators put in the walk-ons in the 4th quarter. Seriously, Florida you ought to be ashamed of having this game on the schedule. I don't care if the SEC schedule is hard, this is a pathetic match-up this late in the season.
Penn State 28 Michigan State 21
Look for Penn State to spoil dellusions of grandeur the Spartan faithful have about heading to Pasadena.
Utah 31 BYU 28
Well, this one could be good or boring. I am going with a shootout and wouldn't be surprised by the last team with the ball winning. Utah is the better team and has proved it beating better competition this year and will prove it again remaining undefeated.
Texas Tech 42 Oklahoma 28
This one will be close for a while. But revenge is not on the menu Sooner fans. You'll have to wait until bext year to serve up that dish. Look for Tech to prove the experts wrong.
Pittsburgh 20 Cincinatti 17
Well Dave really pulled a rabbit out of his ass with mouse traps and a lot of spit this year. After blowing a head scratcher at the start of the season, I truly believed this would be his last as head coach. Now the Panthers are headed to the BCS as Big East Champs with a key win this week and then next week against West Virginia.
Oregon State 38 Arizona 28
Well, a few upsets here or there will not be enough for Arizona fans that expected more out of Stoops. This loss will not help the job security. Look for OSU to try and smell roses a few days more as they try and keep USC from the BCS. Which could happen with automatic bids being won by Utah and Boise State going undefeated and the Pac 10 just getting one BCS bid this year. However, the Beavers could keep Ohio State from getting in and the Big 10 would only get one BCS bid depending on BCS rankings at the end of the year.
