The Patriots Must Suck

Off to a great start in 2017 (unlike the Pats, didn't watch a single play, but that one is a head-scratcher. Glad I wasn't picking that game)!  I've always said...... I don't wanna win 'em all, just 60%.  I would also like to take this moment to announce that I will put my picks up against SVP (for entertainment purposes only, of course), since we are using essentially the same system.  Winner gets a high five.  ESPN finally learned how to use YouTube this season to post his picks - where it will get a million % more exposure than posting the video on their lame website where it's impossible to find and usually not updated.  Here's a link to his picks.  Unfortunately (for him!), he went 0-4-1.  We did share two losing picks.

Here's what happened last week.

Ball St. +7 @ Illinois WIN 21 - 24 (Margin +3)  Cards probably should have won outright.  Maybe next time fellas.

App. St. +14.5 @ Georgia LOSS 10 - 31 (Margin +21)  Just one score away from a winner.  Start scoring earlier than the 4th quarter next time.

Arkansas St. +14.5 @ Nebraska WIN 36 - 43 (Margin +7)  Nearly had an outright winner again as UNL was gouged in the air for 400+ yards.

Vanderbilt @ Mid. Tenn. St. +3.5 LOSS 28 - 6 (Margin +22)  Statement game for Vandy!?

Tennessee @ Ga. Tech +3 WIN 42 - 41 (2OT) (Margin +1)  Yellow Jackets blew two 14 point leads in this one and then went for 2 and the win in double OT.  Better than losing by 7 in 3OT!
