2010 Pick 'Em Gauntlet: Week Two (With Week One Recap)
Week one is officially in the books, and let's just say I didn't start off with a bang. Unless the bang is made because you've been shot and are losing a lot of blood, and in that case, I started off with a major bang. In fact, most of the TSM crew crashed and burned, while our readers kick a great deal of ass. Don't expect that to continue, as I hope to get back into winning ways sooner, rather than later.
There were a few pushes, too, which just further complicates the standings. No matter, though, as we will push on regardless. Below, you'll find the editors' picks along with the standings from last week.
And remember, if you didn't pick last week, you can certainly participate this week. We'll be dropping the lowest two weeks, so you can technically not even pick two weeks and still win (again, most likely a Nike WVU t-shirt). Good luck.
Here are the games we're picking this week (all selections due by kickoff of WVU vs. Marshall tomorrow at 7 pm):
- Oklahoma (-7.5) vs. Florida State
- Notre Dame (-3.5) vs. Michigan
- Florida (-15) vs. USF

Thanks!
Week 2 my friends and it's a good one
Oklahoma (-7.5) vs. Florida State – FSU didn’t play anyone last week. Oklahoma has too much of J.R.’s BBQ sauce to smother all over FSU in this one.
Michigan(3.5) vs. Notre Dame – Not only does Michigan cover, they win outright. BTW, I hate ND more than I hate Rich Rod
USF (15) vs. Florida – I wasn’t impressed much with Florida. USF didn’t play anyone. Getting 15, I think they can cover for me.
Ohio State (-8.5) vs. Miami – toss up game to me. I go with OSU only because they are at home. Neutral field, I would go with Miami.
Alabama (-11) vs. Penn State – JoePa has a Frosh QB and that will show in this game
West Virginia (-12.5) @ Marshall – WVU could play this game blindfolded and cover
These views are intended for the express purpose of laughing at me. Please feel free to do so.

Let’s Go….!
Now is the time boys to make a big noise.
No matter what the people say,
For there is naught to fear, the gang's all here,
So hail West Virginia, hail.
Trying not to lay a goose egg
My selections:
Oklahoma (-7.5) vs. Florida state – only ‘cause it’s in Norman
Notre Dame (-3.5) vs. Michigan – lots of experience beating the spread
Florida (-15) vs. USF – don’t think that Florida will cover, ugh
Ohio State (-8.5) vs. Miami – a tough one, but it’s too early for OSU to choke
Alabama (-11) vs. Penn State
West Virginia (-12.5) @ Marshall – let’s hope we cover the spread by halftime!
2nd? that's bull*!@t

Five TD-or-greater favorites. Gulp.
Oklahoma (-7.5) vs. Florida State. Sooners were sucking each other’s popsicles before the Utah St game. They’ll be commandeering all the Noles’ popsicles Saturday.
M (+3.5) @ Notre Dame. Michigan is better than Perdue; not sure ND is way better than UConn, though they’ll probably not leave both safties high all day.
Florida (-15) vs. USF. Sorry Skip. Urbz has horse-whipped the Gators since they left the field last Saturday.
Ohio State (-8.5) vs. Miami. Jacory Harris has awesome overalls. So he has that going for him.
Bama (-11) vs. COME TO PENN SCHTATE. Ugly.
WVU (-12.5) @ Marshall. Just don’t bet the over.

/knows ND played Purdue, the NW Indiana institution, and not the chicken company.
