Changing things up

First off I want to address Purdue football, we are in a bad bad spot right now. I hate to sound like I am complaining or blaming injuries but I seriously would like to see ANY team in the country overcome losing their #1 quarterback, #1 running back, and #1 wide receiver to torn ACL's. Listen injuries are part of the game, but it seems like we have had way more than our fair share. Lets not forget the Ball State game we didn't have a running back due to injuries. It sucks we're going to move on and hope somehow the troops rally. I still say we are cursed! Where is that damn goat.

So, while Purdue is off this week, I thought it would be fun to change things up and pick all the pro games and one college game(there were some good ones picking just one was hard) Part of the reason for the shake up, my guest picker this week is Rocket who is a big NFL fan, infact I think he is on 3 different fantasy teams. I would like to say I love football, but I am not that knowledgeable on the NFL haha. Onto the picks!

COLLEGE GAME
Alabama Crimson Tide(Booya, Gary, Cheryl) at Florida Gators
Rocket- The Gators take this home game in a squeeker 31 - 28

Phats- It's great to be a Florida Gator, as the saying goes paybacks a bitch. Gators will beat Alabama, and I think fairly easily. Alabama's coming off a tough physical game, their QB is running off at the mouth about Florida's QB. Tide is Gator Bait
FLORIDA 35 alabama 21
EDIT FINAL SCORE ALABAMA 31 florida 6
Rocket- D'oh
Phats- D'oh

Phats- Again the Purdue factor, Kyle Orton is Denver's QB, he had a great game against the colts, but came up on the short end. If he would have slid like he did against Indy in the UW gameday game he would have become an ICON at Purdue sigh.
