My lock pick is UCLA creams that spread.

Given your prognosticational abilities in football and your general knowledge of football, this prediction gives me warm fuzzies which I did not have before the game.

Arch, I just realized you've really been quiet about this football season and then I realized that's because we've been winning and thereby robbing you of the opportunity to get whipped up into an Ashura-esque frenzy.

Thats ok....they have won 2 National championships in the past several years, so they are on pace to win about 4 more in the next 12 years. That is pretty sweet.

Also, if they keep up this pace, they will give up fewer than 100 points all season. Wow!

I have only seen him do this in gay bars. Would he do it here, too?

actually neither one of those "on pace" predictions for USC would surprise me.

Been busy with other things and this game concerns me as will many others, but I take solace in Seattle's negativity, because in my heart, I know he knows many things, but but he's a true dummy when it comes to football. He didn't even know the challenge rule or understand a bootleg or the reason why the PAT was blocked. He was uninformed about the celebration rule, as are many fans. It's a dumb rule IMHO, but it's a rule.

So his rooting so vociferously against the magical kingdom makes me smile, knowing most times he'll be wrong.

However, UCLA knows our tendencies, has good team speed and NewWeasal can coach, so this game concerns me.

And the Sooners will only lose 12 BCS bowls. I'm not sure I like this logic. Where's my prozac?

All of the losses to non BCS teams.

And there will be 12 marriages between a running back and a cheerleader.
