2011-2012-NCAA College Football Pick Em' BOWL BONANZA!!!

Thanks for playing Hairy! Have you misplaced your login info? I am sure the Cafe Pharma admin folks can provide you with that info. Congrats on Coach Meyer he is a natural fit at Ohio State and this is his dream job.

Bronco- I see where you picked Bama like me? I went back and forth about this pick but have been listening to a lot of the National Sports Talk BCS analysts. I guess I am going to buy into the hype that Bama in a rematch will win? I am not totally confidant in that pick though. There are some rumors going around that a few LSU players might be academically ineligible to play in the NC.

Once again I am very sorry about Boise getting screwed out of a good bowl bid..I was looking forward to them matching up against a team like Oklahoma State..

Fucktard- I saw where you picked Ohio State over Florida? I am very surprised by that pick! I just might have to change that pick then... I was just thinking since the game was in Florida it might give the Gators a slight advantage? I am glad to see that Fat Charlie is gone! Now Muschamp will have full control over his program and bring in the right kind of OC. The Gators will definitely make a come back in 2012.

Libsluvs- Come on make some Bowl Picks! If Hairy is back making picks you can make picks to. You do have some skin in the game since Michigan State has a good match up with Georgia. That is a Bowl Game I am actually looking forward to. I really like Michigan State's colors. We don't have enough teams that use green.

Tinkr- Where are you? Why in the hell would Arizona State hire a 6-6 coach when they just fired a 6-6 Coach? I am still scratching my head about that one. I thought the Sun Devils would at least hire a good Offensive Coordinator like Gus Malzahn (Auburn) or Jim McIlwain (Alabama).

Just a couple stupid questions for the experts on the board:

Who the F are the Ohio Bobcats?

and

What the F is the Idaho Potato Bowl?

What's the logic behind these games? Is it like with rock concerts where you have to tolerate the shitty local bands first before the Beatles take the stage?

Personally, I'd rather watch a couple good high school games than Ohio-Utah St or Wyoming-Temple.

But that's just me.

If we are picking straight up, not against the spread, I will do it.
 






If we are picking straight up, not against the spread, I will do it.

hey libsluv - there's no spread here, man. This is the "no-spread bonanza bowl". Didn't you know?

But I predict that the final tally will show that people generally fuck up regardless of whether there are spreads involved or not. I would be shocked if any picker goes higher than 75% in the 'no-spread bonanza bowl'.

If people could beat the odds by being logical and betting in favor of the spreads - Las Vegas wouldn't have all those high rise casinos and free drinks served by hotties with big hooters to all the slobs who pay big bucks to fly in from out of town to lose their money!!!

Sorry, I have been out of town, and very late on my Picks! I don't know why ASU picked him. I would have hoped for better too, but maybe they know something we don't. We'll see next year. But along with their old coach, they should have also gotten rid of some of their players who are always causing trouble.

But that's just me.

I agree with you there are some really lame bowls before we get to the good match ups. Having said that the Utah State Vs. Ohio game was a very close game tonight: Ohio 24 Utah State 23. The University of Ohio Bobcats play Ohio State frequently.

No one but me chose University of Louisiana Lafayette to beat San Diego State!!! GO RAGIN CAJUNS!! It was almost like a home game for those Louisiana "Coon-Asses!"
 






Come on Fiddler. Grow some hair down there. Give us the other 34 picks. Either shit or get off the pot, man.

How long does it take for your ego to heal anyway??? Slap a little Preparation H on it. That should do it good!!! :D

Patience....jackass...patience.

I will pick em as we go. You don't make the rules here laddie....SMH at the annonopussy.

I swear, some of these teams don't even deserve to have stadiums. I remember the day when a team that was 6-6 COULD not go to a bowl because they weren't good enough. This is ridiculous.

I'm only doing the BCS Bowls because the rest of them are meaningless losers.
 






Through the weekend....I take Fla Int'l, TCU, Arizona State (yup...straight up) and Southern Mississippi.

Marshall is really bad, TCU will win in a dogfight, Ariz State will shock the world, and Southern Misswill win by 21 points plus.

I'm 2-1 so far...

Dammit, THF. I wish you would pick the games comprehensively instead of piecemeal. I used to love to go opposite your picks and come out smelling like a rose. You made it too easy. Is that why you're going piecemeal this year? Not to give us an unfair advantage???

It looks like he figured you out. He doesn't want to spend his time smoking poles to pay off debts while you are banging the prom queen.
 






I suggest from this point forward we all keep a running tally of where we stand on our picks.

Going into the TCU game tonight - here is the scoreboard:

Bama 2-2

Bronco 2-2

Libluvs 2-2

THF 2-2

Fucktard 1-3

Tinker (fortunately you were late w/ Saturday's picks) 1-0

Drug Dumper 1-0

Double check your picks but I am 98% sure that my postings are accurate
 












Well, Boise State delivered an ass-kickin' to ASU like they haven't gotten all year long. 56-24.

Even Oregon beat ASU by only 41-27. Nobody came close to scoring 56 points on ASU.

Boise State could hang with any team in the nation - to include LSU, Alabama and Oklahoma State.

Those f..ing asshole BCS committee members really shortchanged a team of hard nosed, rugged, competitive warriors. They deserved much more than they got. But they finished the season like real champions.

I hope Kellen Moore gets a shot with the big leaguers so I can watch him on Sunday afternoons. He might not get a starting job but I think he would make a great backup QB. We'll see.

So what?
 







You're the genius who said ASU was one of the toughest teams Boise St. faced all year. And Boise St. shitcanned them by nearly 5 TD's in the MAACO Bowl.

To give you an idea of how screwed up the polls are - ASU beat U of Southern California by a score of 43-22. USC is ranked #5 in the nation, 2 slots ahead of Boise St. :D

If Boise St. were in the Pac-12 they would be the PAC-12 conference champs hands-down in 2011.

Boise St. is one of the top 3 college football teams in the nation.

The only reason they weren't recognized as such is because the system is fixed.
 






OK. 12 games have passed. We're about a third of the way through the bowl games. Time for a picker's update.

Bama: 10-2 > Outstanding Bama!! Looks like your ship has arrived. Keep your streak going!

Bronco: 8-4 > Bronco's stayin' alive.

Fucktard: 8-4 > Excellent comeback after a slow start!! Neck 'n neck with Bronco and 2 lengths behind Bama!!

THF: 4-3 > Where you been, Hairy? You've been a no-show for the last few games.

Tinker: 4-5 > Never count Tinker out. When the ESP kicks in she's hell on wheels.

Drug Dumper: 3-6 > We've got 23 games left to go, DD. Things change fast. Hang tight.

Everybody check your scores to make sure I got it right.
