1. Georgia……. forget the skill positions in this one, watch the interior line play on both sides of the ball, these guys are really good.
2. Whisky….. speaking of which, Bartender, I’ll have a double.
Surely the Badgers won’t turn the ball over 5 TIMES and 1 for a PICK SIX like they did last week
Heaven help me, I’m starting to think about this game :?
3. Missouri….. because they’re playing Tennessee
4. Pitt….. kinda feels like how Benedict Arnold must have felt
5. Minnesota….. they sure as hell don’t know how to vote, hopefully they’re better at football
6. TCU…… I sure hope so
7. Memphis….. Bourbon and the Blues, good stuff
8. Louisville….. :roll:
9. Southern Cal….. just a shadow of what was once one of the best
10. Cincinnati…… I think I’m thinking again
11. Alabama….. during a recent press conference, reporters were questioning Coach Saban about what he was doing and how he was coaching this year’s team……. Can you believe that??? :shock: :shock: :shock:
12. Oklahoma….. ‘Where the wind comes blowing down the plains.’
13. Florida Atlantic….. is there a Florida Pacific?
14. Texas A&M….. I think I read where their Starting QB got injured, that would explain a lot
15. Okie State….. I’m kinda liking this bunch
16. Vandy….. good school, lousey football
17. Nebraska….. I happen to think they’re pretty good
18. Auburn….. but I’m still a Gus Malzahn fan
19. Washington….. rains too darn much
20. UCLA….. oh where, oh where is Terry Donahue????
