Title: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: Catch Prothro on October 07, 2012, 10:25:03 AM Congrats to Sqwig and the three Bama's on great picks this week.
A look ahead to televised games during week 7: Morning games (Take at least Texas and Barn games): Louisville v. Pittsburg, ESPNU Kansas State v. Iowa State, FX Texas v. Oklahoma (a must pick), ABC Northwestern v. Minn, ESPN2 Iowa v. Michigan State, ESPN Auburn v. Ole Miss, SEC morning game (Burn down the Barn!) Afternoon games (take at least Bama and Notre Dame games): NC v. Miami, ESPNU Utah v. UCLA, Fox Bama v. MO, CBS WV v. Texas Tech, ESPN/ABC Stanford v. Notre Dame, NBC Oregon State v. BYU, ABC Illinois v. Michigan, ESPN/ABC Early Evening games (take at least Florida game): BC v. Florida State, ESPN2 Florida v. Vandy, ESPNU USC v. Washington, FOX Later Evening games (take all 3): USCe v. LSU, ESPN Tennessee v. Miss State, ESPN2 Texas AM v. Louisiana Tech, ESPNU Anyway, I have the top 9 games to pick as: Auburn Ole Miss Texas OU Bama MO Stanford Notre Dame WV v. Texas Tech Florida v. Vandy USCe v. LSU Tennessee v. MSU Texas AM v. Louisiana Tech And potential game 10 as: Louiville v. Pitt Kansas State v. Iowa State Oregon State v. BYU BC v. FSU The Bama point spread might be so high that we could pass on it -- Bama isn't going to lose to a team that just lost to Vandy, after a bye week, despite this game's preseason projection as a "trap game." :P Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 07, 2012, 11:53:46 AM Thanks for putting all of this information together for us. I know it is a lot of research to figure out what games are going to be on TV, what time of day, what network, etc.

I know it is a lot of research to figure out what games are going to be on TV, what time of day, what network, etc. nah, it's pretty easy actually, if you know where to look, ESPN. http://espn.go.com/college-football/schedule/_/week/7I don't include games on channels that most folks don't get, like CBS Sports Network or NBC Sports network, although those games (Boise State v. Fresno State or Central Florida v. Southern Miss) wouldn't make our list anyway. Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: ricky023 on October 07, 2012, 03:47:20 PM Well I appreciate all the work that has gone into these games. I know it has to be hard work. This week these one loss teams could be a game closer to being gone from the picture. RTR!
Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: cbbama99 on October 07, 2012, 04:23:23 PM I think the OSU - BYU game would be a good choice. That has trap game written all over it for the Beavers.

That has trap game written all over it for the Beavers. That's a good one. I think we probably will get coverage in Alabama -- ABC has three games scheduled in that time slot, and we'll get one of those on ABC and another on ESPN:WV v. Texas Tech, ESPN/ABC Oregon State v. BYU, ABC Illinois v. Michigan, ESPN/ABC Usually, the coverage map separates out the Big10 and Big East, and that's the game we wont get. Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 09, 2012, 07:16:43 PM So where did we end up?
Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: 2Stater on October 09, 2012, 07:43:53 PM So where did we end up? I like these FWIW: Auburn - Ole Miss Texas - OU Bama - MO Stanford -m Notre Dame WV - Texas Tech Florida - Vandy USCe - LSU Tennessee - MSU Texas AM - Louisiana Tech Kansas State - Iowa State Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 09, 2012, 07:58:07 PM Sounds good. The games are entered and ready for picks.
Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 12, 2012, 04:27:36 PM Man, some of these picks our really tough.
Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 13, 2012, 02:42:27 PM I can't believe that 0-1 made the leader board. We only had 2 guys get the first game right?
Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 13, 2012, 02:45:15 PM The Ole Miss game finishes before the Oklahoma game so I get to start out 1-1 instead of 0-2.
:lol: Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 13, 2012, 06:48:52 PM I nailed the tie breaker, but I am 2-4 on the games. I missed 2 games by 1 point each. >:(
The only 2 I got right are Alabama and Auburn though, so I will take it. :lol: Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: Catch Prothro on October 13, 2012, 07:03:42 PM I nailed the tie breaker, but I am 2-4 on the games.

Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: ALTideUp on October 14, 2012, 08:40:59 AM Thanks. Blut what I want is a roll call for those who hit the WVU/TTU game. Theiy're the geniuses of the board. That was the only game I thought I had locked down.
Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: ricky023 on October 14, 2012, 09:22:22 AM Congrats to all the winners you guys made some fine picks. I missed the auburn and West Va. games and I thought they were a lock. Auburn has gotten so low they would have to jump up to kiss a snakes' belly. RTR!

It looks like Leewillie is the only person who picked that game correctly. #+ Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: BAMAWV on October 14, 2012, 10:31:52 PM WVU always loses at least one game a season that no ones sees coming. Last year, maybe, it was the East Carolina Pirates. I saw thm on the local news trying to blame the wind for GenoSmith's inaccuracies. LOL --The wind did not blow when TT had the ball?
One more characteristic of WVU-- they tend to stay down when beaten-- K State up next.

Morgantown is a hard place for team's to get in and out. I'm changing to WVU and also picking the Tide to have a break out, mid-season game against the Vols. Bama 48-3 RTROne more characteristic of WVU-- they tend to stay down when beaten-- K State up next. Title: Re: Week 7 Games, A Look Ahead Post by: ALTideUp on October 20, 2012, 09:48:28 AM I'm banking on KState's defensive. As in, they seem to have one. That seems to be all it takes to stop WVU.
