TAE Top 25

[The Ancient Enemy]

Moldo holds a bowl pick-em every year. Someone won who picked based on mascots. Another winner made her picks based on colors. I'm not so sure being able to guess better than someone else is any indicator of knowledge. If your little brother guesses correctly on all 60 games played in one weekend, does that mean he knows more than Kirk Herbstreit?

How about this one, know-it-all, explain this: why doesn't ESPN post Corso or Herbstreit's weekly tallies, or yearly tallies on the games they pick? Because showing that stat makes them lose credibility, because so many stupid things happen in college football every week. Hence me liking it so much.

TAE knows something, just trust me on that one. Of course, you think he knows nothing and I know a little, but really, watching Texas (if indeed you caught 3 games) beat up LA-Lafayette and Rice tends to make them look a hell of a lot better than they really are. They are what, 1-9 between them right now? It wouldn't take much to totally annihilate those two teams.

They also beat Oklahoma, Ohio State, and Missouri. Maybe you forgot those 3 teams. I don't care what TAE thinks he knows. Him and I can bet anyday of the week. I'm up for it.

How about this one, know-it-all, explain this: why does ESPN post Chris Berman's stats all year? Why do they post everyone on their sites predictions on their website?

Boomer picks Pro-Football doesnt he, Pro and College are different, if you ask me, pro is too predictable, but like AE said anything can happen in college. I just feel that Pro is easier to pick than college.

Because TV and the internet are different things. How many people do you think look at those stats on the internet? 15? You're one of them.

Bermann does NFL games, and he's smarter than all of those other guys anyways.

I love how Missouri is entioned as a credible opponent. How many more times does Gary Pinkell need to drop the ball before you realize his program is dogsh*t? Probably a lot more times, since you think McCarney's Cyclones are on the verge of a national title. I think Kansas is about to win the BCS too. All those quality teams in the Big 12 like Oklahoma State. They MIGHT beat Baylor. They were 3-0 and you were talking about them like they were Auburn. 3-0 to 3-9, maybe 4-8 if Shaun Bell breaks his leg before November 19th.

Yep, Oklahoma State is great. Just ask deliverance. He bragged them up after they squeaked by three very good teams: Montana State (15-10), FAU (23-3), and Arkansas State (20-10).

Keep up the good work.

Texas beat only one credible opponent, that being Ohio State. PSU beat them by 4 more points than Texas did, so why isn't PSU getting bragged up by you? ULL and Rice and two of the ten worst programs in IA college football, Oklahoma is very down this year (getting beaten by TCU, almost getting beaten by Tulsa, and getting the crap kicked out of them by UCLA is NOT the record of a quality team), and Missouri is good for 5 losses every year. That is one good team that Texas beat. ONE. Does that spell it out for you? Missouri is not good. Oklahoma is even worse. ULL and Rice should go I-AA, and even then, they wouldn't make the playoffs. So right there you have four very crappy opponents, and one good one, and that one still doesn't look like a top ten caliber team. Shoot off your mouth all you want, it doesn't make it so.

[The Ancient Enemy]

There's more truth to what you just said than any of us know. They are definitely 15 teams in I-AA that can beat ULL and Rice any day of the week this year.

What does it matter how much you beat by someone by? Does it matter if it's by 3 or 7? Does it matter if TEXAS was AT OHIO STATE IN FRONT OF OHIO STATE'S HOME CROWD??? I don't think you're considering that. They didn't have 110,000 people on their side. Just remember that. Texas is #2. PSU is #8. That's what really matters.

[The Ancient Enemy]

I actually think Colorado may have been overlooked by a lot of people, me included. Can Texas beat them twice?

Texas is 2? Thought they were 1, deliverance?
