Comments on the week from our expert panel of reporters, bankers, doctors, lawyers, ad wizards, lawn guys, bond guys, car guys, pilots, priests, principals, builders, teachers, bums, and nomads.
Continually updated throughout the day...
The Jeff G Analysis
State – for the reasons stated before, plus I think they can shut down Robinson enough. The over must be huge for this one.
A&M – A&M should figure out how to put 4 quarters together. What’s a Brazo?
Okie State – Texas’s problems last week seemed to be based on lack of experience. Now they know how to get the shit kicked out of them by an Oklahoma team, this week might not hurt as much.
Auburn – Florida’s QB situation is bad, real bad.
TTech – The Who Cares Game of the Week. That includes Sullivan who has been noticeably (and mercifully) silent so far. Yes, you can tell him I said that.

If the sheep pokers of college station let me down im going to put a bag of dog shit on their bus when they come to Austin. -- David N
Whew, Aggies in the pool 4 weeks in a row. Me and Pap heading to College Station this weekend. Gotta load up on A&M-SEC merchandise. Hey, you think they'll move A&M-Ark to a home-and-home? Seems like it would make sense, but I'm guessing that both teams make way more guaranteed money from Jerry in Dallas than they would as a home game. But I'd love to get to Fayetteville or LR for a game. -- Aggie Mark
I'm thinking C. Don't know how you keep up with it all. I hope Steve Jobs gave you some fancy algortithm that automates this for you, before he passed. -- G-Biz
When will you start enforcing the 5p for Sal. I’m big on rules. BIG! Technically, he’s 0-15 the last 3 weeks. -- C Fish
Texas Tech just so Sully won't bug me. -- Moose

Regards from the Big O
Since I'm leaving for Auburn at the game with the gators tomorrow morning and I don't want to forget to send them tomorrow, I guess I'd better make my picks which are as follows: 1) Michigan (because even a victory over Ohio State doesn't justify giving the edge to M. State; besides in the Big 11, Michigan's QB is the most effective after the kid who chose Wisconsin over us -- Wilson? -- thus probably adding a loss by us to the Hogs this year, unfortunately); 2) Texas A&M (because I've withheld church donations to the Bears lately and haven't set up Jeremy's cockeyed scheme for funding their recruits; besides, A&M is a better team and except for picking AU out of loyalty, I didn't get to the top picking 9 point underdogs); 3) Oklahoma State (same reasoning as before, I don't pick 7 point underdogs; besides, the L'horns didn't impress me at all after picking them last Saturday over OU); 4) Auburn (for the same previous reason plus their QB is less experienced than ours and our defense has gotten better each game -- feed it to Michael and run, run, run); and 5) Texas Tech (no real reason other than Tubs playing at home and he almost pulled it out against A&M last week). Really enjoyed Jack Arute's giving your friends Pawwly and Danny Boy heck on the radio today. Jack has condemned the rush to speculative judgment (spell checks wrong here, it is proper to spell with or without an "e" according to most legal authorities) against AU throughout our ordeal -- which is now over, regardless of what our detractors (I guess that includes you too) misguided beliefs. In Gene's off color refrain as he raised the crystal football last January 10th, "War Damn Eagle!"

Poetry Corner with Danny K
It’s time to pick.
It’s here so quick.
These games are really fickle.
But whoever wins,
Whenever it ends,
My wife will play Hide the Pickle.

The Poolsville Auburn debate is very entertaining - I'm kind of sad to see the investigation come to an end for many reasons. And I'm very thankful that the Daviswa aren't a mafia family otherwise I'd have to go underground. -- Fleetwood

Glenn B's NCAAFConverter App
The Converter is on Alaska Time today (includes French Polynesia, as you probably know) and rather than run the risk of a late submission, I am sending you the basic results.
1. Michigan - Michigan State
NCAAFConverter says Blue is back. MICHIGAN.
2. Baylor - Texas A&M (Baylor worth four points)
NCAAFConverter says the team of attorneys Baylor had on retainer to stop A&M's flight from the Big 12 has been working overtime on breaking down A&M's offensive schemes for litigation purposes; these guys will be key in pulling the upset here. BAYLOR. Bonus points, please.
3. Oklahoma State - Texas (Texas worth three points).
NCAAFConverter duly notes that This Week in Schadenfreude awarded the Tears of Unfathomable Sadness to Texas after last week's loss to Oklahoma. Standing in water is never a good thing when lightning is about to strike twice. OSU, please. Go peddle your shiny bonus point elsewhere.
4. Florida - Auburn
NCAAFConverter says: really? What purpose does this serve? Arkansas showed last week that the emperor wears no clothes. But that won't stop Auburn from trouncing those Gators. AUBURN, please.
5. Kansas State - Texas Tech
NCAAFConverter says some things just cannot be explained through science. KSU, please.
