Rambling's Week 13 CFB Recap


My favorite two weeks coupled together are right now with Rivalry week and Championship week back to back I'm looking to bounce back this week and look forward to the Thanksgiving weekend of sports both football and baseball. Now on to the picks....

Thursday, November 24th, 2011:
#25 Texas at Texas A&M7:00 pm ESPN, Texas still isn't a top 25 team and A&M isn't as good as I keep hoping they will be. Texas has Baylor this we Winner: 0-1 ATS: 0-1
Friday, November 25th, 2011:
#8 Houston at Tulsa11:00 am, Is Houston a top 10 team? No. Do they deserve to be ranked in the top 10 right now? Yes. They are the only other undefeated next to LSU. Winner: 0-2 ATS: 0-2
Iowa at #21 Nebraska, 11:00 am ABC, With a season ending win Nebraska goes into the bowl game on a high note but must have regrets about what could have been in it's first Big Ten season. Winner: 1-2 ATS: 0-3
#3 Arkansas at #1 LSU, 1:30 pm CBS, LSU has now put themselves in a position in which they can lose the SEC championship game and still play in the NCG. Winner: 2-2 ATS: 0-4
Pittsburgh at West Virginia, 6:00 pm ESPN, The Big East is still a total mess with three teams still in the hunt for the conference championship. West Virginia has a chance to win it still but will need some help from other teams to achieve a BCS berth.  Winner: 3-2 ATS: 0-5
Saturday, November 26th, 2011:
Iowa State at #9 Oklahoma, 11:00 am FX, Bedlam is on the horizon and Oklahoma is coming off a stomping of Iowa State. Iowa State is bowl eligible and can take solace in that. Winner: 4-2 ATS: 1-5
#13 Georgia at #23 Georgia Tech, 11:00 am ESPN, Georgia has a chance to throw a wrench in the system by making the SEC the first 3-bid league. Georgia Tech has taken a bit of a dive after looking like a true contender in the ACC. Winner: 5-2 ATS: 1-6
#14 Michigan State at Northwestern, 11:00 am BTN, Had 'em on upset alert and it turns out it wasn't necessary the Spartan coaching staff had this team coached up to be ready to play on Saturday even with nothing to play for. Winner: 6-2 ATS: 2-6
Ohio State at #15 Michigan, 11:00 am ABC, Michigan is trending towards a BCS game in the minds of many pundits and I think this is dangerous for the Big Ten because of the fact that Michigan is decidedly average. Winner: 7-2 ATS: 3-6
Wyoming at #7 Boise State, 1:00 pm,  Winner: 8-2 ATS: 3-7
#2 Alabama at #24 Auburn, 2:30 pm CBS, Roll Tide, all the way to the BCS championship game. Winner: 9-2 ATS: 3-8
#5 Virginia Tech at Virginia, 2:30 pm ABC/ESPN2, Virginia Tech reminded Virginia Saturday that they rule the ACC for a reason and that reason is the talent gap between them and the Cavaliers. Winner: 10-2 ATS: 4-8
Oregon State at #10 Oregon, 2:30 pm ABC/ESPN2, ummm.... yeah this game turned out predictably. Winner: 11-2 ATS: 4-8-1
#19 Penn State at #16 Wisconsin, 2:30 pm ESPN, Wisconsin is in the Big Ten title game and we get to see a rematch of a very good game from the season. Winner: 12-2 ATS: 4-9-1
Texas Tech vs #18 Baylor, 6:00 pm, Tech is really bad. RG3 is really, really good. Winner: 13-2 ATS: 5-9-1
#17 Clemson at #12 South Carolina, 6:45 pm ESPN,  Winner: 14-2 ATS: 5-10-1
#22 Notre Dame at #6 Stanford, 7:00 pm ABC,  Winner: 15-2 ATS: 6-10-1
UCLA at USC, 9:00 pm,  Winner: 16-2 ATS: 7-10-1
