UCLA is taking USC to the shed LOL !! The best game on now is Wisconsin Ohio St. Rock em sock em Big Boy Big Ten Football !!

USC has as much talent as any team in the country, they look like a team that has given up or wants a new coach .

If Oregon wins tonight it will be UCLA/Oregon in the Pac-12 CG in Eugene.

Right now it's pouring rain and windy here might hurt Oregon's offense but they still should score lots of points.

My biggest concern is Oregon's defense soooo many injuries, last week we had TE's playing on the Dline. This week DAT, Bennet (back-up QB) and Lowe (receiver) have all been practicing at CB.

Looks like USC is trying to come back, today is like the finial four in the Pac-12 the winners of the USC/UCLA and ORE/SU games will play in the CCG.

Captain Michael Zordich comforts Captain Michael Mauti as he is carted off the field today! These are the leaders who stood up last summer and told the world they were staying! This is what Penn State football is all about! They are...Penn State. And as you might have notice, they make me very proud to be a Penn Stater.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/columnist/lopresti/2012/11/17/lopresti-notre-dame-wake-forest/1711579/

12-6 on my college picks! Wow, wow, wow! Probably more shocked about Oregon! Wondered about KState all year! Baylor played their best defensive game and the Wildcats had No answers! Really feel for Les! It sucks when your team loses a heartbreaker like that! Didn't think anyone could shut down the Ducks that much! Looks like the Tide are back to controlling their own destiny! Win out and they get a chance to defend their championship! I know Chit has a big smile on his face this morning! Now on to Notre Dame, looks like Matt Barkley got hurt against UCLA, so the Irish should play the winner of the SEC Championship for the 'Crystal'!

10 and 7 on my college picks this week. After #1 Kansas State and #2 Oregon both go down looks like Notre Dame will be the new #1 in the BCS Standings ..... My new top 5 in the BCS.....

#1 Notre Dame
#2 Alabama
#3 Georgia
#4 Florida
#5 Kansas State

If Notre Dame goes down next week at U.S.C. the flood gates will open up for the BCS standings and just might as well flip a coin on the standings

Have today off, although most of there fans thought they took last week off ! Want to see how Luck does against the and pulling for the Enjoy the games !!

I think it will look more like this

#2 ALABAMA
#3 GEORGIA
#4 FLORIDA
#5 OREGON

After getting beat that bad K. STATE should drop to #9 or #10

12 and 4 in my college picks this week ....

Or like this

NO 1 NOTRE DAME

NO 2 EVERYONE ELSE !! Just havin a little fun guys

I agree with Oregon at five, now it's time for the Ducks to play the “if game”. If USC beats ND, if UCLA beats Stanford, if FSU beats FLA, if ORE beats OSU then if ORE beats UCLA in the Pac-12 CCG their back in. Long shot? Yes. The simpler outcome is Oregon beats OSU and at 11-1 still in the top five gets a BCS at large bid, Fiesta or Sugar.

Irish voted AP No. 1, Alabama No. 2

NEW YORK -- Notre Dame is No. 1 and Alabama is No. 2 in The Associated Press college football poll, moving to the top of the rankings after Oregon and Kansas State were upset Saturday night.

LES looks like all the Ducks need to do is win out and root for USC next week, then your right back in it bud !

Wow Jos' put on quite the show! 59 points!!

Still really down about Friday's layoff, but at least I don't have get up early. So I get to watch my ! Without Ben, Antonio Brown, and Troy not sure they have much of a chance against their bitter rivals, the Ravens! Maybe the ugly Bumblebee unis they are wearing have some magic in them! Or maybe the Ravens will get distracted by how ugly they are! Anyways I plan on watching and who knows stranger things have happened than Byron Leftwich leading the team to victory! HERE WE GO...

Just noticed I'm 11-0 on my NFL picks! What do they say about a blind squirrel! Hoping I'm 11-1 come about midnight, becuse I picked the Ravens!

49 ers Smith out tonight

http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/8651667/alex-smith-san-francisco-49ers-concussion-ruled-sources

9-4 SU 7-5-1 ATS so far

Takin Da Bears SU and + 6 TONIGHT

BCS Rankings http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/rankings/bcs

My only comment is Oregon should be NO WORSE than 3rd, and is getting jobbed by the SEC bias !

Well I'm 12-0 on my NFL pick, darn it! The Steeler defense played their best game by far, but in a losing cause. Special teams and too many injuries on the offense doomed the Black and Gold from the start! Hope Ben heals really fast! Going to be a real struggle to get a wild card without number 7! Picked the 49ers tonight in the battle of backup QBs!

Barkley out against Notre Dame

http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/ncf/story/_/id/8650748/matt-barkley-play-usc-trojans-notre-dame-fighting-irish-lane-kiffin-says

no worries on them moving up in the polls ....remember ALABAMA and GEORGIA have to play each other in the SEC Championship game , somebody will drop then!

With the way Barkley has played most of the year that might not be a break. And this might fire up their defense, sorry nuttin I got to root for USC FIGHT ON! (I think I died a little typing that ) it's Oregon's only chance to get back in the race for the NCG.
GO DUCKS!!
GO USC!
GO UCLA!

It s all good Bud Until Sat I didn t feel the Irish had a shot a the Big one. If they lose Sat, I ll be happy to have them back in the spotlight again, and root to see the game I ve thought should be for NO 1 all year. The Ducks offense against BAMA S defense. BUT if THE IRISH win Sat, all bets are off, and Ill be unbearable tiil we win the national TITLE !!

11 and 2 with my NFL picks so far Got the tonight..... Big win for my yesterday but at a BIG cost losing TE Rob Gronkowski to a broken left forearm. Had surgery this morning at Mass General Hospital to have a couple of screws inserted and will miss from 4 to 6 weeks Up by 35 points in the 4th quarter with time running out I cannot see any reason the starters were still on the field for a meaning less extra point that led to this injury

There's another possibility, if FSU beats FLA, GT beats UGA and UGA beats Bamma in the SEC CCG all SEC teams have two loses, then it could be ND vs ORE if ND/ORE win. Shhh... don't tell chit .

Really the only thing I'm hoping for is UO beats OSU and Oregon can get a at large BCS bowl bid, maybe the Fiesta vs K. St.
