I mailed it in last week. Pat noticed right away “Your proof reader took the week off?”
Damn kids.
Actually, I had a project due at midnight Friday. It was completed at 11:55pm. Just under the wire. Seems like the old college days, slipping paper under the prof’s door with minutes to spare.
I then started the BBofG and threw it together around 2:00 am. It showed. I’m thinking I'll just delete the post rather than edit it.
But I’ll leave the piss poor picks in my permanent record. 0-3 for the Mega Bets 0-2 on the Mini Megas. 0-3 on the point whore parlay. You couldn’t do that bad if you tried.
Cincinnati +15.5 @ Ohio State – “Cincinnati won't get down 28-0” They did and kept on going getting down 42-0 early in the fourth quarter before OSU turned off the dogs.
Miami (FL) -4.5 @ North Carolina – I joined Jason at the Spartan Alumni function. After the game we moseyed over the Cane Alumni function downstairs at the same watering hole to watch the end of this game. Very exciting. With 4:38 left the Canes scored a TD to go up 25-20. They try for two but miss it. No worries. The Canes still had the cover.
UNC marches down and gets a TD to go up 25-20. Now I’m rooting for the Heels to get the 2 so a Cane FG sets up OT. They make it! 28-25
C’mon Canes get a TD and win or a FG and OT!
Canes get the ball with a minute left drive to the Heel 32. Here we go, get the FG, go to OT, and maybe I can pull this one out. Miss, crap.
It’s the second time I’ve gone against the Sheriff this year. I’m 0-2. No more doubting the Sheriff.
The Sheriff is off to a great start at 4-1-1.

Cincinnati +2.5 vs LA Rams – Getting 2.5 and losing by 3 Arrrrrgh!!. To be fair, Carolina made the game close by getting a TD with a minute to go, making it 30-27 Rams. Carolina failed to gather the onside and LA ran out the clock.
Still it was one of two games I lost by the hook the other being a mini mega on:
Texas +6.5 vs LSU – Another back door cover that failed. LSU scored a TD with 2:22 to go and went for 2....and got it – bastards. LSU goes up 45-31. Texas scored a TD with 22 seconds left. Wished they would have gone for 2. Final LSU 45 Texas 38 Good game though.
Syracuse +1.5 vs Maryland – Wow, did I underestimate Mike Locksley. Maryland smoked Syracuse 63-20. Won’t do that again. Go Terps. Syracuse misses graduated QB Eric Dungey far more than I thought.
Other take away from week 2 (other than ignore my post from early Saturday morning)

Michigan 24 Army 21- Michigan needed 2 OTs to finally beat Army? Nick wasn’t worried. He texted “every ranked team that beat Army in OT has gone to the CFP” That’s true. They also had back to back Heisman Trophy winners so the September Heisman in back in full swing again.
Illinois 31 UConn 23 – After trouncing Akron in week 1 the Illini are now 2-0. It’s a mirage. Those are two of the worst teams in Div 1A
Clemson 24 Texas A&M 10 - A&M got the back door cover with a TD in the last 6 seconds. Clemson dominated a pretty good Aggie squad. Next up is a semi revenge game vs Syracuse.
Iowa 30 Rutgers 0 – I thought Maryland would be the worst team in the Big 10. They’re not. It’s Rutgers.
But Illinois is not ready to relinquish the title quite yet.
Penn State 45 Buffalo 13 – The Nits love to run up the score on bad teams. Lay the points.
Wisconsin 61 Central Michigan 0 – Wiscy’s cumulative score on the season 110-0. Too bad they have a bye this weekend.
Then a chance to smoke scUM.

Coastal Carolina 12 Kansas 7 – That Les Miles experiment is off to a terrible start.
Central Florida 48 Florida Atlantic 14 -It’s the second season without Scott Frost as HC and the first without McKenzie Milton as QB and yet the Golden Knights are still rolling.
All that chatter FAU’s Lane Kiffen being a great HC, yeah right.
Colorado 34 Nebraska 31 – Remember how, when Nebraska won 4 of their last 6 last year, and Scott Frost was going to really turn on the jets this year. Still waiting.
Cal 20 Washington 19 - You were sleeping off those last couple victory beverages and missed a great game. Cal kicked the winning FG with 8 seconds left. The Bear defense is for real.
Don’t know what to make of Washington. The Hawaii game this week will give us a better clue. The Rainbows are 2-0 against the Pac 12.
USC 45 Stanford 20 – USC starts a freshman QB and trounces Stanford. Makes Northwestern’s loss to the Cardinal look even worse.
Before you get on the Condom bandwagon – now DCs have some game film on Kedon Slovis.
Missouri 38 West Virginia 7 – It’s OK to get back on the Mizzou bandwagon again.
