Sorry I couldn’t get the Week 8 picks up. Looks like my Internet Explorer browser and Word Press was an unsuccessful marriage. Anyways without further ado let’s get to this weeks match-ups.
Texas Tech versus Kansas State

(14) Texas Tech
(6-1, 3-1 Big 12)

(3) Kansas St
(7-0, 4-0 Big 12)
Kansas State proved to be a national contender by routing West Virginia and giving Geno Smith a run for his money. Texas Tech has been a surprise contender in the Big 12 this season as well, and that showed in its overtime win against TCU. Both teams are good, but I wouldn’t bet against any team that came off of a shellacking of one of the top offenses in college football.
My Pick: Kansas State
Florida versus Georgia

(2) Florida
(7-0, 6-0 SEC)

(10) Georgia
(6-1, 4-1 SEC)
This might actually be a rivalry again. Both are top 10 teams, and both have put together strong performances thus far. Florida has proven me wrong week after week against top competition, and I think this is the time where we realize that they actually are a contender and not a pretender. I don’t think Georgia is there quite yet.
My Pick: Florida
Mississippi State versus Alabama

(11) Miss. St
(7-0, 3-0 SEC)

(1) Alabama
(7-0, 4-0 SEC)
My heart says Mississippi State, but my head says Alabama. Alabama’s playing at home too. Kind of tough to pick against this rolling train.
My Pick: Alabama
Notre Dame versus Oklahoma

(5) Notre Dame
(7-0, 2-0 away)

(8) Oklahoma
(5-1, 3-1 Big 12)
Wow what a game. Two great offenses going against each other. Notre Dame is definitely for real this season, but they have a tough challenge against Oklahoma. Expect for a lot of points to be scored this game. I know I shouldn’t pick against Oklahoma at home, but screw it I’m gonna be Irish just this once.
My Pick: Notre Dame
My record: 21-13 (I swear it on my mom’s grave)
It’s great to be back!
HOHOHO!
