    CFB week 3

    1) Florida st @ Syracuse

    2) Rutgers @ Kansas

    3) Sooners @ Iowa st

    4) WVU @ NC st

    5) LSU @ Auburn

    6) Boise st @ Okie light

    7) Mizzou @ Purdue

    8) USC @ Texas

    9) TCU @ Ohio st

    10) Duke @ Baylor

    Upset Special: Nothing really jumps out at me. Starting to get a feel for things in week three and sadly I'd say the best chance at an upset is N Texas St at Arkansas. They're really up tempo and we're really bad.

    I'd like to pick Vandy over Notre dame but that ain't happening. Maybe purdue over mizzou.................naw.

    Texas is gonna beat USC, but I didn’t say that.

    Mason Fine is the QB at NTSU and he’s a dandy.

    The Sooners may be facing another unknown second team qb at Iowa State, just like last year when they got trapped at home by Iowa State. Something tells me that won’t happen two times in a row to Lincoln Riley.

    I’m real interested to see how State will look vs WVa. It’s a home game and they’re favored by 3.5. The whole thing is probably moot though as I doubt they’ll be playing football in Raleigh this weekend.

    Welp, they just canceled the NC State/WVU game for Saturday. Not sure yet if they’ll reschedule it.

    QA? Are these picks you're making?

    Winner @ Loser?

    It reads like a schedule, not picks. This is how BBP interprets it, anyway. I'm fine. Just fine.
    If we all threw our problems in a pile, and you saw everyone else's problems-- you'd take yours back.

    Sorry to hear of your loss of friends, Eddie. Seems like the older we get the more we need to go stand up for our friends and family.

    CFB week 3

    Not college but still football related. As the VA contingent says so often, HTTR! Not those Redskins though but the team my son is on this year. They had their second game this morning and so far they are 2-0 and have outscored their opponents 44-0.

    This is during warmups for the first game. My son is #77.

    Was that North Texas that Arkansas gave up 44 to?

    Not sure where the game was. That qb from NTSU is the real deal I’m telling you.

    Looks like the Big Ten is making an early top 15 exit. TCU is looking sporty.

    TCU has to stop giving up points on offense and special teams. Starting to get out of hand.

    Week three thoughts, Arkansas edition:

    1) Florida st is really bad, I doubt they'd beat arkansas by more than 56 points.

    2) The Ole miss defense is really bad, I suspect Arkansas could score 8 or 10 points against them

    3) Notre Dames QB is really bad, I suspect Arkansas could hold him under 1500 yds total offense thru three quarters

    4) 90% of all the announcers in CFB are really bad. The other 15% don't have a clue. Not unlike Chad Morris.

    5) Gus Malzahn is buddies with Arkansas's coach, he'll most likely call off they dogs this week when they score 50. Probably midway in the 2nd quarter

    6) If Oklahoma played Arkansas, Skyler Murray would have a QB rating of 2600

    7) The Arkansas fans are calling for Houston Nutt or John L Smith to come back. (this is true) Definitely would be and immediate upgrade

    8) You can look up the term "washed up" and there will be a picture of John Chavis the Arkansas DC.

    9) The Razorbacks coach's pep talk for this week is " If we continue to improve we'll achieve rent a win status".

    10) We have become Kansas and Rutgers stepchild.

    bonus observation: Bye week is licking their chops waiting for the piggies

    Not matter what the spread is or who the opponent is, take the over
