Ladies and Gentlemen – This week’s picks will be in Honor of the Marine Corps Birthday and Veterans Day. Since 10 November 1775 The United States Marine Corps has stood on the Nation’s porch like a Pit Bull waiting to be unleashed when the occupants of the house are threatened. We have served in peace and for the past decade, a lot of war, a lot of war.
Ladies and Gentlemen – This past week separated the contenders from the pretenders and it almost separated me from the liquor cabinet. Your Favorite College Football Prognosticator was a very subpar 52 and 16 or 76% for the week and for the season after seven weeks that leaves me at 400 and 93 or 81%. It’s hard to believe I have picked almost 500 games thus far in the 2011 season But please hold...
Ladies and Gentlemen – This week…. I write to you from high atop my mountain compound that is the RTR Ranch and Sanatorium. I felt obligated to be in a “safe” place to write this week since the Illinois Fighting Pumpkins and the Kansas State Wildcats are both undefeated (6-0) for the first time since the Pilgrims played a Thanksgiving Football game. Because as we all know, that is one of the first signs...
Ladies and Gentlemen – Last Week (Week 5 if you are keeping count and I know you are) was the equivalent of Your Favorite College Football Prognosticator stepping on a rake and getting smacked in the jimmy.

Ladies and Gentlemen – Halloween is over and I hope that none of my beloved readers lost a loved one this year to the insatiable appetite of Fat Phil Fulmer when he emerged from the pumpkin patch. But there were far too many “Tricks” and not enough “Treats” to suit me this year. This coupled with the “signs” of the coming apocalypse made Halloween all too disturbing. What do I mean and what are...
Ladies and Gentlemen – Before we get into this week’s selections….. I would like to “thanks” in no particular order: The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets The Minnesota O’ so very Golden Gophers Coach Drooley and the Tennessee Volunteers Zippy the Akron Kangaroo and the entire football coaching staff at West Point…. For completely screwing up Your Favorite College Football Prognosticator’s weekly average and sending your fans into fits of rage while dashing for the...
Ladies and Gentlemen – Today is Thanksgiving…. To most people that means three things…. Family, food and football…. And not necessarily in that order… We have a cornucopia of rivalries this weekend…… Overflowing with hate and discontent….. Ah, Good Times… I can hardly wait to dig in, but before we do Let’s be thankful for what we have and not grumble about what we don’t have…. For example, I am thankful last week Your...
Ladies and Gentlemen – I ask you…. Who got treats and who got tricked this weekend? The Homers of Indiana certainly got “tricked” into believing a two touchdown lead was enough to beat the Iowa Hawkeyes. And the South Carolina Gamecocks had more than enough “Butterfingers” to start the game in Knoxville, which counted as a tasty “treat” for the Volunteers. But perhaps the best treat of all was watching the Trojans get the...
