Welp. Week 2 brought the pain and it was an Oklahoma State push from being a total bloodbath. More than half the field were eliminated (91) as only 70 survived and will move on to week 3.

Rules:

1. No edits or picks will be accepted after Thursday September 12th at 7 PM. A late pick or edit past the deadline and you will be eliminated. NO EXCEPTIONS.
2. Have to pick against the spread (ATS).
3. This will be top 25 games only. Meaning it has to feature a game with a top 25 team, but you may pick either team against the spread.
4. I will post the lines you must pick against. If the line changes, it does not matter. You are picking against the original lines I post and they will not change once posted (unless I make an obvious error of course. In which case, I will tag you as soon as possible letting you know the line has changed).
5. A push = survive.
6. Feel free to ride the same team all year. No restrictions on how many times you may choose a team.
7. Every week I'll post the survivors and who got eliminated.

Tiebreaker Rules

1. If all remaining survivors make a bad pick, the person with the closest pick wins.
2. If 2 or more people share the closest pick, those people will move on as survivors.

Mizzou hasn’t been swept in a non-conference series since Michigan State in 2000-2001.

Recent gentleman’s splits with Boston College, Indiana, Purdue, Arizona State, Wyoming, West Virginia, etc.

BYU doesn’t stand a chance in 2035.

Looking for two passes, shoot me a message if available

Huge series here. If they lose this game. He might not be coaching there long

These refs are 2022 Bud Light.

70% today and 3 total TD’s and a huge first down to ice the game. What more do yall want?

TE and LB got off easy I guess.

Guess it’s pretty lucky we were even in the game, much less winning.

Edit to add: apparently the season is over as well

Drinkwitz, Tre'Vez Johnson, Luther Burden and Nate Noel talked after the game

LSU trying to finish a game winning drive and they had a long pass for 1st and goal waived off - ball wasn't controlled before receiver went out of bounds.

Edit: replay reverses the decision, it was a catch, 1st and goal LSU

Ole Tittman is down 20-17 to UAB

…..is still a win.

For Vandy, jmc6391@gmail.com

Barely beat ODU and beat a bad Kentucky team. Their program has been mediocre for their whole existence too

Proud of football team. Wasn't pretty but they got it done.

He said this game reminded him of MTSU game from last year. He's happy the offense closed it out.

Fourth down conversion for a TD was zone and that play can't be made.

Takes blame on penalties.

Never seen four consecutive penalties like that during that third down stretch.

Used three-man rush and a spy to force Castellanos to throw. Just can't have busted coverages when that happens. Eyes were in the backfield.

"Blake Craig was difference in the game."

The OL did a good job in the run game. Got the outside zone working.

He felt the team was going to be find moving the ball once they got 3 points on their opening drive.

Feels the game shifted when Tre'Vez got the INT. He knew he was going for two when they scored on that drive.

The ball finds the players its supposed to. Luther wasn't targeted in the first quarter. But he's

The key was to contain the QB and stuff the run and they did that.

The first time team had adversity and everyone had to settle in.

Thought the explosive plays in the pass game were big and they have to keep searching for them.

Nate Noel got hot on the outside zone. Marcus Carroll had a good game, too.

Always great to have Norfleet. Worried about not doing too much with him in the run game due to the shoulder.

Called Batoon as cool as a cucumber and responded well. Batoon wasn't happy with the coverage busts, though obviously.

Doesn't want to get fined talking about the ACC ref crew. He just said it's the crew from the Georgia-Clemson game.

Presser promptly ends on that question.

Don’t get me wrong the right decision was made to move on, but they way the playoffs work and with their difficult for G5 schedule they may make it even with one loss. Was a bad hire when we hired him but glad to see he is doing well.

As the guest picker on College GameDay…do we think she’s gonna throw some shade at Mizzou as a university when they pick the BC game?

FSU 0-3, you hate to see it.

Norvell, better watch for sale signs in your front yard tomorrow.

Maybe. UAB 10 Arky 3. I know it’s early but it WOULD BE another doozy 🤣

That you aren't a razorbacks fan

I tried it today. Felt a little disappointed if this is supposed to be the best bbq in KC. I had a half pound of bacon burnt ends and a half pound of brisket.

Bacon was solid. Brisket was very avg imo.

Very early, but they Noles have no pulse at home against Memphis. BC’s “big” win looking pretty tame.

Bakers defense looking stout so far. 7-0 Gamecocks
