he tossed a coin and called that skill. i call that luck
i posted a PERFECT slate of college picks this season. did he? nope. calling college games is way harder than the NFL. the NFL is too predictable due to their conservative style. in college it's wide open
could you do this, WTF? i think NOT
Well .. a rare event. thanks to some wild finishes that could have gone either way, i nailed every pick this week.

Syracuse @ (17)
Florida St. TixYahoo Calendar
WINNER: FSU
Jimbo took one on the chin last week. he CANNOT afford to drop one at home against Syralose.
Syracuse 21 - 45 (17)
Florida St. Final
Jimbo had to use his backup QB and rolls. Holding out Golston is right for the kid .. and the biggie coming up with Clemson.

(19)

Georgia @ (11)
Florida TixYahoo Calendar
WINNER: UF
if UF wants to return to the elite, they need to make the Swamp the Swamp .. again.

(15)
Michigan 29 - 26 Minnesota Final
Another wild ending. at first blush i don't agree with Gophers call to go for the win but on second thought given the situation it was probably the right call.
