I am not sure if it is I or not...but on my next pick I pick:

UCLA I will either win with this pick or burn and crash...I am not a Kelly fan..but he can increase the tempo and has had a year to get some speed.

7. FIU [Florida International]
8. Texas A&M

I almost made it without taking an SEC team. And even though I do not think A&M is a legitimate conference contender; the potential benefit of bumping a ranked team off track could give me a half point bonus after Week 5. The Aggies will clearly have the opportunity to give me that. So taking them as a final pick is about where my Comfort Zone lie with this team.

There is another team out there that I feel could have some real upside. But I won't say, in case someone else gets inspired by the possibility.

UGH! So close to coming back. Well I'm glad we are only doing 8 teams. I'm struggling to keep up with who is still out there.

I believe Goldy is available so I will take Minnesota.


Yeah; just imagine how trimmed down the field would be if Spence had chosen to participate this year.

That's TWO picks that highfly has ruthlessly stolen from me!! 8)
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

And the operative word is 'ruthless.'

My observation is, and we have had this discussion, that conferences with parity are difficult to pick...mostly Western Conferences. Those that are dominated by the same teams, not so much.

I predict UCF will go undefeated and we can just ditto the last 14 years conversation about that situation.

I have also changed my mind. Boise by 12.
