The Big 5 College Football Games of the Weekend


5. UConn Huskies at Virginia Cavaliers
This is an odd pick, but still the teams are a combined 10-1 for the season (Really is 9-2, Uconn Lost to Temple). Both teams have had, for the most part, cake schedules. So which one will prove to be the phony first, or is one team actually for real this season? The Pick: Huskies I guess?

4. Louisiana State Tigers at Kentucky Wildcats
Most would probably put this as the biggest game of the weekend. I however will not. I do not see anyway that the Wildcats defeat the best team in the country regardless of whether or not its in the Bayou or Lexington. The Pick: LSU Rolls

4. Wisconsin Badgers at Penn St. Nittany Lions
Let's just call this the over-rated preseason Big 10 bowl game. Loser is completely out of the mix for the Big 10 title if Penn St. hasn't already eliminated itself. A couple of weeks ago people might have thought this game would make or break the Big 10 season. Now? Not so much. The Pick: Joe Pa's boys end the Badgers hopes

3. Purdon't Boilermakers at Michigan Wolverines
The Wolverines have beaten one moderately good team this year in Penn St. The rest of their performances have been poor at best. If they can knock off Purdon't perhaps they have a chance at being a Big 10 contender. If they can't, well then Lloyd should be expecting his papers shortly. The Pick: I can't see the Wolverines losing to Purdon't

1. Missouri Tigers at Oklahoma Sooners
The Sooners have an outside chance at the National Championship game if they manage to run the table, while the Tigers are attempting to prove that they are in fact for real. If the Tigers do somehow manage to get out of Norman with a victory than they should immediately be thrust into the legitimate BCS title game contenders list. The Pick: The Tigers get Tamed

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
