Things I Learned

If Friday is time for picks, Monday is accountability time.

Out on a limb picks: 2-4; Straight up: 5-1
The rest: 4-5; Straight up: 7-2


WV-22 @ UConn
Toom

MSU+18 @ UGA
Toom - but I'm not happy about it.

Louisville-17 @ Syracuse
House

Tulane @ Auburn-31.5
House - Can't even count on Auburn to cover when you need them too.

Iowa+12.5 @ Michigan
House

Wisconsin-6 @ Purdue
Toom

Alabama @ Tennessee-11
House - this was a dumb pick. Cue Randy Travis tape.

Oregon-3.5 @ Washington State
House

NFL

Jacksonville @ Houston+9.5
Toom

I ended up going out on a limb on these.

Texas-4.5 @ Nebraska
House - Gotta be kidding me. Who knew a) it would snow and b) Tx would miss two short field goals?

GT+7.5 @ Clemson
House - I've never had more fun being wrong.

Mississippi+21 @ Arkansas
House - I'm an idiot, you're smart. Mississippi is bad. Arkansas is good.

USC-4 @ Vandy
Toom

Pittsburgh-2.5 @ Atlanta
House - Didn't see this coming, at all, especially the shoot out.

Washington @ Indy-9
Toom - Thank you Peyton Manning for saving the weekend

I think 14 is a gift the way we looked the past 3 weeks.....our D is killing me slowly at this point. My feeling is this....we haven't stopped any one since week 2....we don't tackle well and our secondary gets exposed when we don't get pressure up front...I say we bring the house against Leak...and I don't mean just blitz more than we have....I mean like 90% of the game...we CAN'T get lit up anymore than we have by not doing it...I say we just hang the hairy bean bags out and go after them. I think we need to do about the same on O as we did this week....let Matthew sling and see what happens...i'm looking for Mo Mass to break out down there.
