I have a few BIG opinions on the NFL that it looks like everyone disagrees with...so I really like them even more!! Here they are:

BUF will beat CIN - only RO on CIN, but I really like BUF this week.
KC will destroy ARI - 8.5 is nothing because it will be closer to a 41-14 type game
NYG will beat PHI - everyone loves Vick now, one loss for NYG and everyone thinks they are done...NYG will win this one outright, no doubt in my mind.

PURPLE hosting PACKERS
We will win this one. I couldn't believe it when I heard PA today even giving up on this club. The Vikes will win Sunday, I really have no doubt. I'll say 24-20.

UPSET ALERT
One of these will happen...DET over DAL or HOU over NYJ...2 big dogs, one will win outright. Dogs that have no chance...CAR, SEA, ARI...all 3 will get HOUSED.

5 guys giving ATL love this week, but I kind of have this feeling that STL wins this game. ATL is pretty high on themselves after beating BAL and STL is really strong at home. Not 100% convinced this will happen, but I definitely won't be shocked if it does...but do I pick it...not sure yet.

Bryan St. Pierre, Troy Smith, Tyler Thigpen...these are starting NFL QB's this week.

As far as college games go - I really am having a hard time picking these this year and picking this week as well. I've become more of a fan in the NCAA this year than a bettor, outside of this pool I just can't play college games any more until I figure out what the hell I'm doing. 2 games this weekend...WIS at MICH and OHIOST at IOWA...

WIS at MICH
Really wanted to pick MICH in the worst way, but I have this sick feeling that it's THE year for Becky. MICH turns it over too much and really doesn't even field a defense. Becky will be nervous as hell because they never play well in MICH, but I can't pick against them this week with MICH being as shitty as they are.

OHIOST at IOWA
The Hogeyes, on their way to 7-5 and another nice bowl (ha ha!), missed out on being the Gameday host because the Purple team got them once again. NW, ruining Iowa's far-fetched dreams for years! I think this team realizes that their hopes of smelling the Roses are gone and they will be flat. Sweater Vest on the other hand is rejuvenated after crushing JoePa in the 2nd half last week and they will come in with the idea of winning out and being in the BCS at 11-1. Iowa has been incredibly unimpressive lately. They are good at home, but I think the Buckeyes are going to be ready to play on Saturday. The all world DL of Iowa hasn't exactly done a lot for them lately and I think Cap'n Kirk has actually used up all of his luck over the last 2.5 seasons so it's time for them to lose about 4 close ones in a row...which could still put them in 6th or 7th in the B10 pecking order. I know the Iowa fans are sick of going to FLA for Bowl Games so I think it would be a really nice gift to send them to Detroit...haven't done the math to see if it's possible, but I think it's a appropriate landing spot for this club. Prediction:

BRUTUS 92
HERKY 3

OH-IO, OH-IO!!

I'm cheering for MICHIGAN and OHIOST this weekend...what an f'd up season.

Gophers haven't lost a game since 11/6...that's 12 days ago! We're hot baby!!

I can almost smell hate week coming...WHO HATES IOWA!??!?

Have a good weekend!! Good Luck.
