JimD 3,345 #476 Posted October 31, 2014 Hey Jim - I truly love you! But here is some advice, keep listening to what Confusis say... Confusis say " Man who listens to confusis is man who will remain in basement with donuts and keep others ammused at the confusing things you do!" Confucius also say, "When man run out of witty comebacks he should resort to talk of football." 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #478 Posted October 31, 2014 Thanks Rob, you know I love Iowa picks! This one might shake things up, then again it might Not and send me towards some long awaited donuts! Jim, I can't do the glazed plain for me. Ok I've always liked Wisconsin an have pretty much always take them unless playing Iowa but who didn't know that. Going to throw it to the wind, it shows up I will take the home teams to Win this week. Maryland at Penn State, all I can say is they played a heck of a game last against OSU which who knows came back and tied,went to overtime. I don't think there done yet. Michigan, I hope you play the wheels off that ball and score like you've donbe so Many times oh yea don't stop to check out the crossing just cross the dang thing. Iowa is still suffering with there quarterback dilemna. On that I'll keep my mouth shut because I'm not the coach. Everybody can go could of,would of, should of, but those guys get paid the big bucks for that reason. That's all I have to say for Now but reserve the Wisconsin pick that's the only one that makes me nervous. As always, Go Hawkeyes!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,700 #482 Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) So, with bitten and Hodge to pick yet...I am the only Northwestern fan this week...what am I missing here?? The stars are in alignment, the QB's are ready, the horses are facing West, Iowa is afraid to cross the goal line and I have squeezed the heck out of a doughnut. I have even invented a new cocktail for my Wheel Horse mug...a Bloody Maria...WOW!!! If the guys in the basement start getting Breakfast Burritos (and there is a good chance JimD will not be alone after this weekend)...I am going into free fall and count me in, but I just can't believe that Burrly1 has got all you guys thinking that Iowa can win at home against Northwestern. You have them all hood-winked John...Thanks Mate. See...the defense can't cross the goal line either. Edited October 31, 2014 by stevasaurus 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good Bye Dave Brandon the Athletic Director Who Hired Brady Hoke he resigned today the Temp Athletic Director or new one will no doubt fire Brady Hoke first week or so in December.

RMCIII 838 #490 Posted November 1, 2014 Steve - I am probably going to regert this, but I'm changing 1 pick. Change from Maryland to Penn. State. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMCIII 838 #491 Posted November 1, 2014 This one goes out to Steve & John; Speaking for myslef, I don't like either team Iowa or Northwestern, becasue of how unbalanced they have been playing this season..... However, you have to take into account that Iowa is only 10 points away from being an undefeated team. I can't say that about Northwestern. Also, it's a home game and Iowa had a week to rest. I think the 2 weeks off for Northwestern will do more harm than good for the Cats. I do think the Cats will put up a good solid effort, but I think it will be Iowa by 3 in the end.

Hodge71 664 #492 Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) I have no clue where to even go with these picks...I consulted the magic 8 ball...Ouija board, drank a few cold ones by the fire pit last night and checked the stars...next week I'll be finding a Shaman if this doesn't work...... Iowa, Penn State Nittany Lions, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio State ​The good news for me is I'm changing the boiler out in the house today so I wont see any games. Out with the one that the original owner put in...I believe he scored a surplus one from the Navy when he came back from WWII in 1946... I swear it has to be out of a battleship.... bye bye to $2000 a month oil bills in the winter..... Edited November 1, 2014 by Hodges Dodges 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
