papaglide 542 #276 Posted November 2, 2013 Alright. After 90 minutes of college gameday and listening to Desmond's goofy laugh, learning that Jameis Winston is kind of odd and Jordan Lynch is the career active rushing leader, I am ready to announce my picks. No logic, just picks. Penn State, Wisconsin, Ohio State, Minnesota, Nebraska, Michigan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,010 #277 Posted November 2, 2013 I don't listen to those blabbering idots (spelled that way on purpose ) college or Pro's. Maybe that's why I'm in the basement hugging the boiler! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a year in the Big Ten...some great games today, and some though losses and wins... RMCIII...you need to buy a lottery ticket today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMCIII 838 #280 Posted November 3, 2013 YEAH......Big 10 is kinda like that.. Not that I am complaining this week. Minnesota vs. Indy was a close game. Spartans wiped the field with the Badgers. Nebraska was truly outplayed by NW. But, like you said Steve, the miracle catch at the end of the game. Wait, the most played "miracle catch" in NCAA history..... The Hail-marry pass thrown by Doug Flutie. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #281 Posted November 3, 2013 Iowa at Purdue (Purdue's 1st conference win???) Very Doubtful! Go Hawkeyes!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,683 #282 Posted November 3, 2013 I don't know John...Purdue is going to win a game sooner or later. Looking at their remaining schedule...it might as well be the Hawkeyes. :ychain: :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RMCIII 838 #285 Posted November 3, 2013 Well, if I look to stay at the top, I just may have to have my wife type the "I" fowl word,,, I don't care if you are an "I" fan that is some funny s^$# right there.... BOOM!!!! GOES THE DYNAMITE...... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaglide 542 #286 Posted November 4, 2013 Somehow I think that Purdue might not win a conference game. Minny is looking pretty tough right now. Penn State has more heart than some of the "top" programs do. Michigan and Nebraska.......who is going to not show up? Take your pick. Illini and Indy. Illinois, where is Ron turner when they need him? Beckman is in over his head. Some screwy games this weekend. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,683 #287 Posted November 4, 2013 WEEK 11 NOVEMBER 9TH 5 GAMES TO PICK THIS WEEK....GOOD LUCK PENN ST. AT MINNESOTA IOWA AT PURDUE ILLINOIS AT INDIANA NEBRASKA AT MICHIGAN BRIGHAM YOUNG AT WISCONSIN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,683 #288 Posted November 4, 2013 There are 2 choices in each game this week (DAH)...It's like..."who do you think will win, and who do you want to win, and who is really going to show up to play???". The smart money goes with...Penn St. Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin...that is not going to happen!!! A safe bet is the home teams this week...Minnesota, Purdue, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin...good luck with that!!! Purdue is going to win 1 conference game. The world according to Stevasaurus picks...(and these are my picks this week)...Minnesota, Purdue, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin The only one I am not sure of...Neb / Mich...going with home team...you have to ask yourself...which one of these teams is luckier. Michigan always has the refs on their side at home. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaglide 542 #289 Posted November 4, 2013 Minnesota, Iowa, Indiana, Nebraska, Wisconsin Minny- they are tough and for real and they are experienced. PSU will play hard. Iowa - I have absolutely no faith in Hazell. Indiana- I believe that they are on the cusp of becoming decent. Back to the days of Bill Mallory? Michigan- I really do not like them...at all. I do not want them to win. After the egg that they laid this past Saturday, I expect them to semi show up. Nebraska on the other hand seems to have ADD. IF they could keep their collective heads into the game for a full 60 minutes they obviously would be a much better and dominating team. But wait, they showed moxey last week. They found a way to win. They pulled out a victory from the clutches of defeat! I liked Tom Osborne a lot. Bo Pellini coached under Frank Solich who coached under Tom Osborne........... I don't trust the Huskers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,683 #290 Posted November 5, 2013 If they start running the "Wish Bone" again...watch out Big Ten... Papa...how can I agree with you (and I do) and we have picked only 2 out of 5 games the same?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaglide 542 #291 Posted November 5, 2013 Suarus, I dunno. There are some wacky games this week for sure. I reserve the right to change my Nebraska pick to Michigan at some time within the next 3 days. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #293 Posted November 7, 2013 I guess you can say that I'm fuuny or something, I still don't know why its so funny but oh well. Anyway my picks go like this I'll take the home teams other than Iowa and Nebraska hopefully will pull the rabbit straight out of the hat. If Iowa pulls out a victory it will make them bowl bound. Guess what? That would really make my day!!! As always, Go Hawkeyes!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hodge71 664 #297 Posted November 9, 2013 I'm getting a bit tired of trying to make hide or hair of this every week. It just keeps getting harder….or maybe I seem to be over thinking everything….. Penn Sate has a score to settle after the hammering last week and in my heart I know they can beat Minnesota, but being on the road is the key here. Nebraska should beat Michigan but the refs seem to favor blue and yellow for some reason at home…Ugh here goes nothing Wisconsin Indiana Iowa Michigan My heart says Penn State but my gut and brain say Minnesota….I hope JoePa can forgive me but a lot is different this year then when Matt McGloin went into Gopherland and kicked butt in 2010 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RMCIII 838 #300 Posted November 9, 2013 Well, RS is back up. I had emailed Steve my pics. Since it is up and running, here we go: I’ll get this one over quick, since it is painful to type, Iowa over Purdue… Don’t tell John I actually typed that four letter word… Ha Nebraska is in the Big House so, not really a chance there – Michigan Looking at the stats again, Illini is just to unmatched-and it is an away game. Going with Indiana Minnesota. Penn State needs to get the program going. They will. Minnesota is tough this year and a home game. This last one is a coin toss… BYU is much better than what they are getting credit for, but Wisconsin is playing at home. If it were in a neutral environment, I’d pick BYU, and BYU has already upset some good teams on the road. I just think this one is going to go the way of Wisconsin. Not by much, but Wisconsin wins.
