Bored's College Football Pick 'Em - Week 3

[Bored]

Tulsa is blowing out North Texas, one match-up decided:

 

Auburn (Agent of Oblivion) def. Troy (Angel Grace Blue)

[CanadianChris]

Hey, I might have a shot at returning to the top 10.

[USC Wuz Robbed!]

I need BC to hold on that lead and I win.

[Der Kommissar]

Well, with the last Oregon TD, it looks like I am out of it again. Ah well, at least I am still undefeated in the conference.

[Bored]

Three match-ups decided by Fresno State/Oregon:

 

Northwestern (Kingofthe909) def. #10 Arizona State (Spicy McHaggis)

 

Oklahoma (Damaramu) def. UCLA (phoenixrising)

 

Florida International (Vitamin X) def. Hawaii (Will Scarlet)

[USC Wuz Robbed!]

Well thereya go Damaramu, your OU beat UCLA...

[Guest I miss Test.]

And FSU pulling away in the 4th...

 

I think I'll quit with this now.

[Bored]

Four match-ups decided by FSU/BC:

 

#6 Ohio State (Gert T) def. San Diego State (Porter)

 

#7 Texas A&M (Secret Agent) def. Washington State (bravesfan)

So... where does this guy fit in?

[Bored]

Probably the first CONTROVERSY~ of the rankings this year as South Carolina doesn't move at all despite losing but this wouldn't be fun without some controversy? Connecticut is undefeated but not sniffing the Top 10 as they are 25th in correct pick % and dead last in "strength of schedule." And Florida can't be stopped...until next week, mwahahahaha.

 

It's still early so not much meaning so far with only Agent Bond34 and Lando Griffin showing consistency. For those who are winless, phoenixrising last year started 0-4 and nearly made it to the Bored Bowl by running the table. Looks like he'll have to do the same again this year.

[Agent_Bond34]

*does the Gator chomp*

 

So, how 'bout them Vols?

[Gert T]

Its good to see my shatty picks have dropped me two spots! I'm looking to be the Utah of this game, run the table and finish about 7th.

[Cuban Linx]

Not even defeat can slow the Gamecocks bandwagon.

[Guest]

I'm barely getting by.

[iggymcfly]

Bah, still not in the Top Ten. Oh well, I guess my win really wasn't all that impressive at 10-9. However, since I base most of my analysis on how teams actually play (rather than that gay preseason bullshit), I'm only going to get better as the year goes on. Trust me, it will be two weeks at the most before I crack the Top Ten (or get jobbed out for no reason) as I guaran-fucking-tee I will be 4-1.

[Vern Gagne]

The top 3 teams from last year (Minnesota, Virginia, UCLA) are a combined 1-8 so far this year.

 

I'm putting myself on the hot seat.

[Damaramu]

How'd I become #3 again?

[Guest I miss Test.]

No, I won't quit.

 

If I lose to Notre Dame, that would kill me though.

 

I'll also wait until iggy posts his picks, and copy them, since he apparently knows everything.

[USC Wuz Robbed!]

Am I just imagining this poster, I miss Test? I notice no one talks to him or anything. Its like he's just a figment of my imagination chirping about not quitting a contest that for some reason I don't recall him being part of...

[Bored]

They're Black Widow.

[USC Wuz Robbed!]

Oh... that explains a lot. Sorry.
