Here are the games for the Guest Panel to consider this week. Below are the standings as well. There were no changes in the top-three as all three panelists went 5-1 last week. Dr. Funkenstein and Black Widow moved up to fourth with 5-1 records. Big Dog was the only panelists to go 6-0 and as a result he moved up a spot. OSU may have a bye-week, but the guest panel is still providing you with picks and commentary. This week the panel is picking all oddball games.

Colorado St. - assuming the marijuana legalization law has not gone into effect yet out in Colorado
Akron - never bet on a team that has been out scored 136-7 the past three weeks
New Mexico
Western Michigan - always bet on a team whose quarterback is named Tyler Van Tubbergen

I'm impressed that Joe was able to find games where ALL schools have horrible losing records.
Black Widow's Picks:
ReplyDelete1. Central Michigan over Eastern Michigan: The Chippewas will get over the hump and have their first greater-than-3-win season under Enos with a win over Eastern Michigan.
2. Tulane over Memphis
3. UNLV over Colorado St.
4. Akron over UMASS: Although Akron has lost many, many games, they have at least scored points. UMASS doesn't look like it has much of an offense.
5. New Mexico over Wyoming
6. Western Michigan over Buffalo

Wow, this week will separate the men from the boys.
Virtually impossible to predict such games. One thing is for certain, all the teams are bad.
I picked New Mexico because they had the most wins out of everybody (4).
I picked Buffalo because they beat Miami (OH) last week. Does that mean they will win again? Miami is not such a bad team.
On a side note, how are the default picks determined? I'm willing to bet that the default picks go 5-1 or better this week!
A shout out to all the Veterans this weekend. Thanks for your service to our country.
Thought of the week:
Why do schools continue to teach Shakespeare?
Funtik the Hog
ReplyDeleteThree straight 5-1 weeks for this ol’ Hog. No time to get lazy though, these last few weeks are where the hogs separate themselves from the piglets! This is one of my least favorite weeks of the entire season, when the Moderator throws a curveball at us and makes us pick all oddball games, not to mention all oddball games usually involving two cra**y teams. Here goes nothing, and hopefully at least a 5-1 record this week (fingers crossed)…
Central Michigan def. Eastern Michigan: A game involving two directional Michigan teams!!! This HAS to be the Moderator’s favorite game of the entire year. Since Ohio State has a bye week, the Moderator has to be attending this game. How could he NOT be?!?! 50 yard line first row seats, I am sure. The mighty Chippewas of Central Michigan battling the ferocious Eagles of Eastern Michigan at Rynearson Stadium; a battle for the ages.
Memphis def. Tulane: Tulane averages 38.1 rushing yards per game. Think about that for a moment Guest Panel readers – averages 38.1 rushing yards a game. That means that for some games (presumably), they’ve accumulated less than that figure. Dear Lord…Barner at Oregon averages 38.1 yards per rushing attempt nearly. In this match-up between two God-awful teams, I’ll go with the underdog home team, but don’t even attempt to ask me to explain why.
UNLV def. Colorado State: When you have to look to the espn.com reader “Section 140 Conversation” page for analysis of a game, you know you’re in trouble. I’ll go with the Runnin’ Rebels here, because if they don’t win, the Vegas mobsters will be breaking some legs.
Akron def. Massachusetts: Massachusetts might be the worst team in all of the FBS. But, like any team transitioning from the FCS to the FBS, it’ll take some time. Remember, UConn was an annual contender for the worst team in the FBS award after they joined, and just a year or two ago they played in a BCS bowl. Take heart Minutemen fans, your time will come. Mark this game down as Funtik the Hog’s “Clairvoyant Snout Bucket Rummage” Pick of the Week for Week #11 (6-3 record thus far this season, yikes! For the record, I hate Texas – that team is directly responsible for two of my losses so far in the Guest Panel season. Can you make up your mind Texas football, sheesh! Either be good or bad!).
Wyoming def. New Mexico: The oddmakers have Wyoming as a 1.5 point favorite on the road. You know that means that they know something that we don’t. Go with the Cowboys in this one. And another fun fact, the Lobos average 53.5 passing yards a game. Combine the Tulane rush offense and the UNM pass offense, and you’ve got yourself the worst offensive team in the history of intercollegiate football.
Western Michigan def. Buffalo: Going with a lot of road teams this week, I guess that’s a direct result of the lack of knowledge pertaining to these games and their participants. On a related note, another game involving a Michigan directional team. Would it somehow be possible for a single week sometime to have all six games involve Michigan directional teams? We have Eastern Michigan, Central Michigan, Western Michigan that we all know of, I’m sure there’s a Northern Michigan University out there, I was able to find on Google a Southwestern Michigan College and a South University (technically not a Michigan directional school, but, it’ll have to do). Moderator, we know your love of the Michigan directional schools, make it happen! (not really though, I think that’d be a 0-6 week for all of the Guest Panelists).
