It’s week two of the college football season, and already the Pac 12 is doing its best to kill the farcical preseason storyline that it’s somehow a better conference than the SEC.
Coming off of a 12-2 record in week one, here are the picks.
Michigan 34, Oregon State 13 – Michigan players must already be in love with Jim Harbaugh, whose solution to a player’s shortness of breath problem in the opener was, “A few more pushups,” to “boost his immune system.”
Rutgers 55, Washington State 31 –
scha·den·freu·de
noun
- pleasure derived by someone from another person’s misfortune.
Notre Dame 41, Virginia 20 – It’s gotten so bad that the Cavaliers are now thinking of themselves as an FCS team to the point that they’ve scheduled UCLA and Notre Dame in the non-conference season for a quick buck.
Georgia 34, Vanderbilt 3 – Wait, they’re starting the SEC games?
Iowa 31, Iowa State 28 – It could be a last stand of sorts for Kirk Ferentz and his famous turtlenecks, as people are beginning to realize that the Hawkeyes haven’t actually been competitive since 2003.
Oklahoma 45, Tennessee 35 – The headlines from Tennessee’s first game was dominated by that amazing, collapsing, one-shoed Bowling Green player. What has been forgotten is that the Vols didn’t play much defense.
South Carolina 24, Kentucky 17 – I really think they’re starting the SEC games.
Oregon 44, Michigan State 37 – Just when you think Don Pellum is out… he pulls you back in again!
LSU 17, Mississippi State 14 – YES THANK GOD THEY’RE STARTING THE SEC GAMES!!!!
BYU 36, Boise State 31 – This one is tough to call – and it should be a great game – but after Bronco Mendenhall woke up from a decades-long slumber last week thanks to that Hail Mary against Nebraska last week, I like Brigham Young.
