I think you are in a stong positon, oh great leader

losing my top confidence pick early (damn you Central Michigan!) put my whole team in a funk that they haven’t been able to climb out of. Go Gators!

I blame Herbstreit

I had TCU picked and for some odd reason I switched it after listening to him. I’m an idiot oh well still wouldn’t have been in the mix probably.

I put 34 on Florida GO GATORS !!!

As much as it would pain me to say this any other time in my life...

BOOMER SOONER.

Oklahoma is going to win, and to hell with Florida.

spoken like a true nebraskan

I’ve never understood why people in Nebraska hate Florida

To be completely honest,

I’m not sure where my hatred of the Gators (and Hurricanes and Seminoles, for that matter) comes from. It’s just how I was raised. However, there are 2 Florida alums that I do not hate:

and

how about me?

actually I didn’t graduate from Florida, but worked at the University for 4 years. I have a strong dislike for Miami U and FSU.

Fair enough, I can't hate on you.

But you still need to get to an ORoyals game with my brothers sometime. :P

I know someone who was a gofer for her at one of the College World Series

and reported that she was very nice.

Yeah, I hear all the time that she's a very pleasant person.

She seems really cool, like the kind of person I’d want to drink with. She knows her stuff, isn’t boring, and doesn’t come off as a ditz despite being, you know…stunning and blonde.

Her job as a sideline reporter means she often has to ask fluffy questions – that’s the nature of the job – but I feel like she could hold her own as a color commentator for pretty much any college sport.

Nebraska fans

and children of nebraska fans, like me, hate florida teams for the years of upsets they pulled on the huskers in countless Orange Bowls.

And who flat out doesn’t hate the U. Its more formal name of course being, Thug U.

At least Wally Joyner's not on the team....

That is true

of FSU and Miami and I understand that because of the years of asswhippings they layed on the Cornvicts but the Gators have done nothing but take a 62-24 pounding to the Conhuskers. It would be like a Florida fan hating Vanderbilt because they lost to UT.

Damn.

20 correct, just didn’t have a clue how to rank them. Hence, getting my ass kicked in points.

BOOMER SOONER

Although it hardly matters as I think I ranked it as my lowest game. So it basically comes down to how high RR or others ranked the win for either UF or the sooners.

At least Wally Joyner's not on the team....

worst case I get third with a UF win....assuming

Horam picked UF. If oklahoma wins, I take the trophy back to B E A UTIFUL, Ames, Iowa.

At least Wally Joyner's not on the team....

and by horam, i meant Raefzillla

And by everything ive just said i meant nothing

because i just realized the points on the table above and on the website are diffferent as the game last night must have not been in the table above. So i lied its me and RR.

At least Wally Joyner's not on the team....
