2. In all fairness, joey, ND looked good.

I still hate the bastids. Michigan this week, no?

3. Yes, at Michigan...that's the real test...an away game against a decent

team...if they get by them, I have hopes for the season (first time in a LONG time, I have).

5. I know nothing about Colorado or State, Jon.

I bet on the Buffs giving up 11. I don't know. This one was the toughest.

8. Colorado St took an early 7-0 lead

After a long pass set them up in scoring position. Looking good so far. :woohoo:

6. I've disliked Colorado ever since Mr Promise Keeper coached them...

...I'll root for whoever is palying against them.

7. I actually like both teams

But the Colorado Championship from 1992 or 1991 should be striken away. I mean it took 5 downs to beat Missouri and I believe their win over Notre Dame in the bowl game was controversial.

9. Damn. That answered my question.

The Rams just shoved it up the Buff's ass on the first drive. I'm fucked on this one.

11. CSU 14, Colorado 0

They had an interception on one series, drove for a touchdown and forced a 3-and-out on the next series with a near interception on 3rd down.

I'll cool it on the scoring updates until the end of the game. :hi:

13. 25-0? What do you mean?

My TV is showing a 17-0 Colorado State lead and the game started real time. :shrug:

14. The betting factor. I have to add 11 points to CSU's score.

So, with CU's field goal, I'm down 28-3. I'm toast.

16. I'm a slow thinker

I logged off so I can focus on the game then I realized what you're talking about shortly after halftime. I don't understand line's really, how do you pick who wins? In that scenario I'd just pick the team who I think will win. In your pick 'em thread I picked the teams that I wanted to win and threw out the line in my equation.

20. Picking the winner is easier.

Picking the line isn't. Vegas knows what they're doing.

15. Didn't they have a loss AND a tie...or even two losses, and it should

have been 3...yeah, ND won that game.

17. I just looked it up

They had a tie vs Tennesee and a loss to Illinois. Georgia Tech was undefeated with one tie to North Carolina.

10. The Rams are just one of the Mountain West BCS Busters this year.

After power houses TCU, Utah, BYU and Air Force (who had their largest margin of victory yesterday).

21. Never been to an Iowa game...

but a reputable friend of mine, who is a gigantic OU fan, says that Iowa does have some serious tailgating abilities.

But that stadium sure is ugly as sin... :)

23. LOL, a la izquierda.

Up Close, it's quite beautiful. I think the original architect's also designed the tunnels on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Always a tear in my eye every late November as I say good-bye to it for another year.

25. I'm sure it is.

Nothing's as beautiful as the Gaylord/OU Memorial Stadium at night. But I'm probably biased.
