Here are the picks of several college football dignitaries along with Clucko the Chicken. Put down two feed dishes, one representing one team and one representing another and whichever dish the chicken goes to first is the team that's going to win. You'll do just as well. (Really, the pick is a coin flip. Don't laugh; Clucko won the 2000 Bowl Pool among 24 entrants.) You can get to the Expert Picks in the above dropdown under Predictions.
The pickers: Pete Fiutak - CFN, Rich Cirminiello - CFN, Matthew Zemek - CFN, Mark Risley - CFN, John Harris - CFN, Trey Luerssen - Foxsports.com, Eric Edholm - Pro Football Weekly, Steve Greenberg - The Sporting News, Tom Dienhart - The Sporting News, Matt Hayes - The Sporting News, Todd Wright - ESPN Radio, Clucko the Chicken - KFC
I seem to be having troubles linking tonight....
The Texas/Colorado game won't be worth watching, but USC/UCLA has the potential of being a good game. LSU/Georgia should be fun, too.
yep...
And I think Army Navy will be a good game this year.
Army is much better than it has been lately.

A quick breakdown of the picks this week:
Army - Navy: 11 for Navy, 1 (Clucko) for Army
I can see that, but I think this game will be as good as any. Army is improving and has won 4 games in a row.
UCLA - USC: 11 for USC, 1 (Clucko again) for UCLA
The line is -21, but UCLA does have the offense to keep it closer than that. I didn't say close though.
LSU-UGA - 7-5 LSU. This will probably be the most competitive game of the day. Both of these days are evenly matched, both play good defense, and both offenses can score and can struggle at times. Should be a fun one to watch.
FSU - VT - 12-0 going to VT. I guess even "Clucko" doesn't think FSU has a chance. While Bowden seems to be an expert at coming back from the dead, I don't think he has the horses this time around. I hope he likes the Champs Sports Bowl.
you have to tell me how you did that.....
NICE!!
Fight On for ol’ SC
Our men Fight On to victory.
Our Alma Mater dear,
looks up to you
Fight On and win
For ol’ SC
Fight On to victory
Fight On!
LOL:
you sound like I did before the OSU-Michigan game...
A guy is at his friend's house watching USC play UCLA.
UCLA completed a pass and the dog barked wildly.
UCLA made a first down and the dog barked wildly and hopped up and down.
UCLA kicked a field goal and the dog barked wildlly, hopped up and down and ran around the room.
The guy says to his friend, "Wow! Your dog really gets excited when UCLA scores against USC. What does he do when the Bruins beat them?"
"I don't know" the friend said, "the dog's only six years old."
Q: Do you know where Tom Osborne moved after he retired?
A: Westwood - he wanted to get as far away from football as he could.
LOL
I then right clicked the mouse which brings up a set of prompts, one of which being view selection source
A new page appears with all the html codes in place for the entire page you were viewing with the portion that was orginally highlighted, once again highlighted, but with the html codes showing.
I then simply copied the highlighted portion and pasted it as needed.
I'm, using Firefox as my browser and I believe that the view selection source feature is a plug-in that needs to be downloaded from their site.
At one time, my IE browser had the same utility, but I seem to have discarded it.
If you search the 'net for something like view selection source utility you should be able to find a tool that is free for download that functions with your browser.
It's very handy and I use it all the time.
My dad is an alum of both OSU & Michigan. Needless to say, a very conflicted guy.
It's an integrated feature of the browser. No plug-in required.
LOL I bet
My brother graduated from OSU, My mom graduated from Michigan, so it gets interesting around the 3rd weekend in November :)
Thanks!
Hysterical!
