Weekend Recap

The regular season of the Football Challenge has come down to 1 week and 1 game...here's how this week has gone:

GR 9-5
MR 8-6
MK 8-6
MH 8-7
JG 7-7
MC 7-8
SS 7-8
JR 5-9
AW 3-11

GR and SS are the only two betting against the Purple tonight. No matter what happens tonight ROE is going to be in the driver's seat. He'll have at least a 4 game lead on the nextr closest (MK), about a 10 game lead on JR and about 7-9 game lead on GR. It's going to take a minor miracle to catch him...we'll see.


BOWL UPDATE
What a difference a weekend makes...3 for 3 on Saturday and I'm back baby!

STANDINGS
MK 12
JR 8
JG 8
MH 8
MC 8
AW 7
GR 7
MR 4
SS 4

This is out of a possible 17 points. MK is a smoking hot 7-3 to start the bowl season, nobody else over .500 at this point. 10 3pt games coming in the next 4 days before the New Year. Here's a look at tonights game:

A&M-GEO (-7)
INDEPENDENCE BOWL

AW and GR took the minority opinion in this one with the Aggies of A&M. I really like GEO. A&M is a very medicocre B12 squad, and GEO is a mediocre SEC squad. I'll take SEC over B12! GEO fired their much maligned DC Willie Martinez at the end of the regualr season, so I think they come out with some life on that side of the ball. They should have no problem scoring on A&M who gave up 33ppg this season. Here are the teams they've held under 30...NM, UAB, ISU, BAY...not exactly offensive juggernauts. I'm putting GEO on at least 35 tonight and believing that the SEC D will slow down the potentially potent A&M offense enough to cover. GEO should be using this as a spring board for next season but A&M has to be excited to be back in the bowl mix as well...who wants to be here angle would probably side with A&M but I really think the GEO team without Martinez is going to be jacked to show what they can do. It will be a nice alternative to watch once the Purple get up 31-3 tonight.

I'll send out the final list of NFL regular season games tomorrow.
