This week's games

Some people look at this as a chance to pick up some bonus points because so many in the pool won't pick these correctly. Others look at it as a standings killer. Either way, you must pass through the Gauntlet, a bridge to the bowl games. Note that the SWAC and Division II championships are at neutral sites, but in the Division I semifinals the second team listed is the home team. For $800 and the Ramon Escobar Trophy, puzzled by this crazy idea of "playoffs" that the lower divisions have come up with, select your winners and e-mail them back to me by 5 p.m. Friday.
