Poll on the way...


Shoot. I meant to pick A&M as well. Dang it. Any help, Zeldar?

Thought about taking Baylor, but this late in the season 3 top ten losses just seems crazy…

Fixed it for you, Zakalwe:

I picked Baylor, Missouri, and A&M to lose this week. All three teams are on the road. A&M has to come to Death Valley, and they don’t have much in the way of defense, so I’m expecting a shootout. Missouri-Ole Miss might be the game of the week. Ole Miss is pretty good this year, and playing at home just might give them the edge they need for another big win.

At this point, tOSU has no one left on their schedule who should pose a threat. Florida St. is in the same boat, unless Florida can pull off a miracle in week 14. 'Bama still has to get past current #6 Auburn in week 14 which could cause a final week upset. I may have to become a fair weather Auburn fan in two weeks. :slight_smile:

I played a hunch and blew it last week, but I’m STILL not sold on Baylor. Their offense is powerful, but their defense stinks, and eventually they’re going to lose a 49-42 type game.

Oklahoma State can score with them. I’ll predict yet again that Baylor is going down.

And the Aggies are too.

That was my take on the week as well, astorian. Missouri is better than most people think and won’t have much trouble (if any) with Ole Miss. But sooner or later Baylor will play against a decent team that actually prepared for them and will lose, and the Aggies are gonna find a very motivated opponent in LSU. So I picked for two losses this week, same as you.

All y’all who picked Missouri to lose might not have seen this: [

I disagree. People also forget how good Ole Miss is, so it’s going to be a good one. The Rebels do have three loses, but those were @ #1 Alabama, @ #6 Auburn, and a tough 3 pt loss to #9 Texas A & M. They have Missouri at home and I suspect Ole Miss will offer the Tigers everything they can handle.

Did MadTheSwine really just pick Alabama to lose to Chattanooga?

Yes. I guess he’s on board with the idea “Auburn Comin’” and wants to get there first.

Thinking big, like Appalachian State in 2007. What would it do to The Tide if Nooga got 'em before Auburn did?

At least he’s spreading the love around:

I can’t believe the whipping Arizona put on Oregon. Duckster, you nailed that eruption.

Well, I wouldn’t give Duckster too much credit. He picked pretty much everybody. In the cumulative scoring the Oregon pick is washed out by his Stanford and Ohio State picks.

Texas A&M fails!
