Who the f are half these teams, LOL

I know they are legit schools and such but they are the dregs of College Football.

See quote for picks.

It's week 0, there wasn't a lot to choose from

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@Asnito make sure you remind us all on Thursday. I don't want to pick before I have time to watch all the tape.

Who you kidding the only tape you're watching is of the 'Asian Persuasion'

I'm going to hit up everybody on Thursday that I don't have picks from. I'm pretty sure @FLYguy3911 is a lost cause but hopefully @CanadianFlyer88 @JojoTheWhale @Chinatown88 will partake in the festivities this year.

You can only tag 3 people per post, so I didn’t get a ping for this.

I’m still pissed off about losing a small amount of money on CFB in 2020 and have gone back to being super serious about my bets. All my time is going into researching those.

Yes, it’s petty. No, I’m really not above this. I’ve made money in 23 out of the 24 seasons I put effort into it and that one year will bother me until the day I die.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Desmond Howard is so bad.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I still can't believe they decided Pat Fitzgerald's team was one to expose to an international market.

Desmond Howard is so bad.

The other day I was trying to think about how many situations exist where 2 loss (1 to Bama in the SEC Title Game) Georgia doesn't get into the playoffs as the 4 seed and there aren't even many of those. Most of them involve things like both Oregon and Utah having 1 loss or less.

I was actually gonna post that i would like to see Fitzgerald at a program that has meaningful expectations.

Northwestern has a weird year to year arch with him recently. They’re either challenging for the Big Ten West or are one of the worst teams in the entire Big Ten.

I get why he doesn’t leave though. He’s probably got some of the best job security in the entire country.

He’s both a good coach and conservative to a fault. I think he’d do really well at a place like Michigan St where no one expects him to contend for a title, but does expect them to be good and competitive.

I also freely admit I have weird opinions about college coaching. Bill Snyder would be SUPER high on my all-time list for example. All jobs are just not the same.

[LegionOfDoom91]

I don’t see Michigan making it back again. I think they lost too much on defense. I think either Ohio State makes it back to the playoff or the Big Ten eats itself & sends no teams.

You still have time to pick the later games. Just saying

 

[FLYguy3911]

Northwestern having a pulse on offense?

Do they let Frost back on the plane if they lose this one?
