Bring on the Suckeyes!

So another Saturday last week another loss for the Boilermakers, but unlike everyone else I am trying to keep patience since this was suppose to happen this year. All over the message boards everyone is calling for Hope to be fired immediately, and while he's done some questionable things nothing to get him fired after season 1. We have a blue chip transfer QB that will be eligible to play next year, lets wait and at least see how he does first under Coach Hope. This game is a gold strike game, yet something else the fans are complaining about, I tell ya college football fans sure can be fickle. This week we take on The Ohio State Buckeyes who are ranked #7 I believe in the latest poll, and people like to call them the most overhyped, overrated team in America, but say what you will they simply win. They do it close, they do it ugly, at times get lucky, but they win and you have to admire that. The game is a noon kick off on the Big Ten Network, GO BOILERS!

Guest picking this week is the ever clever, ever witty Duck. I'd suggest you read his blog but he has stopped blogging, he is on twitter though, but little good that does huh? Anyway onto the picks. My overall record after last week is now 62-24 not too shabby. Duke and Tennessee are both off this week.

PRO GAMES
Cleveland Browns at Pittsburgh Steelers(Rocket)
Duck- All right people, I'm just gonna lay it out there. Today I'm picking WINNERS. Take these picks to the bank. You won't be sorry. You have my guarantee. I don't know about you guys, but when I see the beautiful orange and brown of the historic Cleveland Brown franchise take the field, I think "those guys are winners", and that's exactly what they're going to be on Sunday. Maybe one of these days Pittsburgh will figure out how to put a winning product on the field, but it won't be this week!
Cleveland 37 - Pittsburgh 5

Phats- Hmm Pittsburgh got the much needed win last week, and this week play one of the worst teams in the NFL in the Browns. I hate Brady Quinn regardless of if he plays or not so GO STEELERS!
PITTSBURGH 28 cleveland 10
EDIT FINAL SCORE PITTSBURGH 27 cleveland 14
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Buffalo Bills(Egg) at New York Jets
Duck- Ladies and Gentlemen, The Beatles:
Hey, Buffalo Bills
What did you kill?
Buffalo Bills
The answer: The Jets. Terrell Owens goes for at least five touchdowns and Mark "Dirty" Sanchez manages to break both legs in an absolute ROMP for Buffalo.
Buffalo 45 - NY 12

Phats- Hmm Jets and Bills, Jets got out to a good start but not sure now after a couple of setbacks. What the hell give me the jets
NEW YORK 31 buffalo 17

Miami Redhawks at Ohio Bobcats(Skii)
Duck- People always ask me "What does the OH stand for in the Miami Redhawks name?" Well, some people say Ohio, but I think it's really for OH MY GOODNESS LOOK AT THE BEATDOWN THEY LAID ON THOSE PANSY BOBCATS WHO ARE ALSO FROM OHIO.
Miami 50 - Ohio 0

Phats- Lets see Miami is pretty bad, and I believe Ohio has had a good season, give me the bobcats in a close one.
OHIO 28 miami 21
EDIT FINAL SCORE OHIO 28 miami 7
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Kent State
Golden Flashes(Design Goddess) at Eastern Michigan Eagles
Duck- The classic Kent State/Eastern Michigan grudge match. Kent State's really gonna be fired up for this one since that one guy on the Eagles said that thing before the game that got them really mad. Did you read about that? It was really quite something. Anyway, it's not going to matter because Eastern Michigan is simply too good to lose to the Flashes at home.
E. Michigan 3 - Kent State 2

Phats- I like Design Goddess she's my friend therefore I am picking the Flashes!
KENT STATE 31 eastern michigan 21
EDIT FINAL SCORE KENT STATE 28 eastern michigan 6
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Hawaii Warriors at Idaho Vandals(Shife)
Duck- Let me put it this way, the Rainbow Warriors will be joyously doing the hula at midfield after this blowout.
Hawaii 69 - Idaho 0

Phats- How about them Vandals, they are having a great year. Hawaii not so much, Vandals will roll in this one.
IDAHO 35 hawaii 13
EDIT FINAL SCORE IDAHO 35 hawaii 23
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Illinois Fighting Illini(Tsofah) at Indiana Hoosiers
Duck- The Illini have more than enough fight in them to take care of Indiana. They'll be bending them over and saying "Hoosier daddy?" by the time this one's over. (I hope I haven't used that joke before)
Illinois 38 - Indiana 29

Phats- IU SUCKS plain and simple. Illinois is bad, but IU is worse FUCK IU!
ILLINOIS 38 indiana 0
EDIT FINAL SCORE INDIANA 27 illinois 14
Duck- D'oh
Phats- D'oh

Marshall Thundering Herd at West Virginia Mountaineers(Angel Jr)
Duck- West Virginia fumbles 15 times and loses a heartbreaker at home to the Herd. They are Marshall, and they are victorious on this day.
Marshall 13 - 'Eers 10

Phats- Ahh yes Marshall looks at this as a rivalry game, my guess is West Virginia doesn't. It will be close for a half, but the "eers' pull away late.
WEST VIRGINIA 31 marshall 17
EDIT FINAL SCORE WEST VIRGINIA 24 marshall 7
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

South Carolina Gamecocks at Alabama Crimson Tide(Cheryl, Gary, Booya)
Duck- The Cocks truly are game in this one as they squeak out a close one at Alabama.
S. Carolina 11 - Alabama 10

Phats- I really like Gary and Cheryl, and they are huge Bama fans, my problem is I don't understand the fascination with Alabama. Mostly because they play in the SEC the media kisses their backsides. They won't lose this week, but watch out next week Tide Fans.
ALABAMA 31 south carolina 14
EDIT FINAL SCORE ALABAMA 20 south carolina 6
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Missouri Tigers(Tsofah) at Oklahoma State Cowboys
Duck- Missouri is handed the win by default as it's shockingly revealed before the game that the entire Oklahoma State team has been declared ineligible for playing in a strip poker tournament hosted by Deion Sanders. Seriously, someone needs to tell "Primetime" to stop interfering with these young men's lives before it's too late.

Phats- This is a big game for both teams, as both teams need to keep winning to keep pace in their division. I am going with Ok State at home.
OKLAHOMA STATE 31 missouri 28
EDIT FINAL SCORE OKLAHOMA STATE 33 missouri 17
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Wake Forest Demon Decons at Clemson Tigers(Topolk)
Duck- DEMONS WIN! DEMONS WIN! DEMONS WIN! (Demons win)
Wake Forest 25 - Clemson 24

Phats- Talk about a team that needed a bye week, Clemson was that team. This game were at Wake i'd take the Demon Decons, but it's not I am going with the Tigers.
CLEMSON 31 wake forest 24
EDIT FINAL SCORE CLEMSON 38 wake forest 3
Duck- D'oh
Phats- D'oh

Texas Tech Red Raiders(Jef and Fuzz) at Nebraska Cornhuskers(Travis)
Duck- Ugh, I didn't realize until just now how lame of a moniker "cornhuskers" is. My prediction: Nebraska players also have the same realization this week and lose due to their extreme shame. Nebraska doesn't put up much of a fight as TTU comes in and raids their cornholes in this one.
Texas Tech 32 - Nebraska 22

Phats- Nebraska seems to be back among the respectable teams in college football, and Tech laid a beat down on K-State last week this will be a good game. Give me the home team, besides they play better defense.
NEBRASKA 31 texas tech 21
EDIT FINAL SCORE TEXAS TECH 31 nebraska 10
Duck- WOOHOO
Phats- D'oh

Oklahoma Sooners at Texas Longhorns(Gary, and Cheryl)
Duck- Wow what a huge game! It really lives up to its billing too, as Oklahoma pulls it out in the fifth overtime. Thrilling!
Oklahoma 3 - Texas 0

Phats- This is a big game, and possibly Texas' last obstacle to making the National Title game. Bradford will lead the Sooners to a stunning upset of Texas ending the dream of playing for the title, sorry no hook em horns!
OKLAHOMA 21 texas 17
EDIT FINAL SCORE TEXAS 16 oklahoma 13
Duck- D'oh
Phats- D'oh

BIG GAME OF THE WEEK
Southern Cal Trojans at Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Duck- Charlie "Fat Bastard" Weis will have his troops all liquored up and ready to go against the USC Condoms. There will be no "Bush Push" this time around to save USC.
Notre Dame 26 - USC 19

Phats- I chose this game because hopefully after it, it will show what a fraud Notre Dame really is. I am so sick of hearing Lou Holtz(who should be fired!) defend this team and say they are in the Nation's elite. My Boilers are bad and should have beaten them lets not forget! Notre Dame gets POUNDED
SOUTHERN CAL 55 notre dame 3
EDIT FINAL SCORE USC 34 notre dame 27
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Boise State Broncos(Duck) at Tulsa Golden Hurricanes
Duck- The Boise Junior College Donkeys will have no chance against Tulsa. This loss will be so bad they'll actually fall completely out of the top 25.
Tulsa 92 - Boise Junior College 0

Phats- I asked Duck which game was probably the most difficult left on BSU's schedule and he said this one. I just don't buy Boise losing again this season. They still don't belong in the Title game but they should get a BCS berth.
BOISE STATE 42 tulsa 10
EDIT FINAL SCORE BOISE STATE 28 tulsa 21
Duck- D'oh
Phats- WOOHOO

Ohio State Buckeyes at Purdue Boilermakers(Phats)
Duck- Purdue Pete goes Tonya Harding on all of Ohio State's playmakers with his huge hammer, allowing Purdue to take this one in OT. Boiler Up!
Purdue 35 - Ohio State 31

Phats- Do I truly believe we'll win this game, probably not, will I ever pick against Purdue HELL NO! I don't like OSU, I respect them, but I don't like them. I think we'll shock as we finally put a complete game together and win by 2 TD's! BTFU!
PURDUE 28 ohio state 14
EDIT FINAL SCORE PURDUE 26 ohio state 18 HELL YA!!!!
Duck- WOOHOO
Phats- WOOHOO

Hail Hail to old Purdue all Hail to our old gold and black
Hail Hail to old Purdue our friendship may she never lack
Ever Grateful, ever true thus we raise our song a new FIRE UP!
Of the days we've spent with you, all Hail our own Purdue
GO BOILERS!

BTFU!!!

Really Rocketstar? I'm awfully proud of my picks. What do you think about the rest of them? I've gotta be honest here, I really think I nailed 'em.

Love ya, Phats...
But have you seen the speed of our defense? It's really scary to watch in person.
I feel better about this team than any of ours in a LONG time. They are consistent across the board and the defense is scary. That said...I do think tonight's game will be a good one. South Carolina has an excellent defense too. No week is easy!

Oops, sorry for the double post (now triple post). Watch the game tonight with an open mind, and look for me and Gary. We'll be yelling LOUD and acting like fools!!

Congrats to Purdue for beating Ohio State! I didn't really think they'd do it, but I'm very happy that they did.
