Does that have everyone correct? I left off the Bears-49ers, since some of us didn't make a pick. I think bender and I picked the 49ers. Not sure about the rest. We're in agreement on the Dolphins, Norvers, Broncos and Pats.

TADA!!!

[Bender2]

BTW How's 'bout them !!!!!!!!!!

[Richard Kimball]

Okay, I think I've got everything right. Only problem is I haven't looked at any of the games yet.

In the first half, big' ol is looking smart with the Panthers over the Falcons so far. Denver and Minnesota games are closer than expected. Everything else is going according to plan.

[cleveland gop]

That’s right, tanks!!

Maybe next week I’ll get it right!!

LIONS fumble Viqueens ball.....

Big Ben gets picked, Bengirls in business.....

[Bender2]

Gadzooks, big! If you are counting on Curly Bill... for advice on taste--

You need much... much more to drink!

[big'ol_freeper]

I have to admit I wear a cheese sombrero often...

[Richard Kimball]

Frogs are looking good! Course, so are my Horns!

Baylor looked good until kickoff!

[dfwgator]

Texas shouldn’t play for the National Championship until we can find out if they are even the best team in Texas. Bring back the Southwest Conference!

Gadzooks! The Rambutts... are playing Da Big, Wet Easy much closer than expected!

[Richard Kimball]

I wish I could believe in the Bengals, but the Steelers seem to have an Ohio Hex going on in games that count.

And don’t look now, but June Jones has SMU bowl eligible and poised to make it to the C-USA Championship game, with Houston’s loss yesterday.

[Richard Kimball]

I’ve thought for the last two weeks the Saints were living off of luck. They’re a good team, but you only have so many 4th quarter comebacks in you. Didn’t expect the Rams to hang with them, though.

[dfwgator]

As Chris Berman says, “That’s why they play the game.”

[big'ol_freeper]

Time for a light snack 'fore the game

[Richard Kimball]

Nobody from a major conference is going to play TCU or Boise State unless they have to. There's too much for them to lose.

The NCAA, which makes ACORN look legit, is there to ensure the big boys stay on top. That said, having gone to UT, I bleed burnt orange.

Until the system changes, being undefeated is more important than quality wins for the traditional powers.

[Bender2]

I took a Con Law class at SMU a billion years ago... and the last question on the final was "How has this course influenced you?"

I answered, "It made me realize I do not have the bladder... to be a lawyer!"

[Richard Kimball]

SMU used to be a great team, but got smashed with the NCAA death penalty. I don’t think they did anything that many other colleges haven’t done, but they were more transparent. With SoCal being out of the major bowl race now, the NCAA may decide to investigate the Reggie Bush payola scandal. They wouldn’t do it for a while cause USC was a cash cow on the west coast.

[dfwgator]

My change would be to draw random opponents for two games for each of the top 32 BCS teams, so you’d have to play two quality non-conference games each year, one on the road, one at home. Do you realize Florida has not gone out of state for a non-conference game since 1991? That’s ridiculous.
