Ward's Winners 9/14 week

[Bama6895]

Hello everyone I hope you all had a good week. Here is the updated record:

Last Week: 6-3
Overall: 10-8-1

On to the picks:

Michigan St-14

NC State-13.5

Michigan-3.5 (the luck of the Irish ends here)

Boise St-7.5

Washington St+7.5 (like it as long as it is 7 or above)

Ole Miss +4.5 (Eli will eat them alive)

Kentucky-17 (UK is on a roll and Dinardo is the coach for IU)

Pitt-6.5 ( I am in love with this game. If I wanted to call a game, the GOM or GOY then this would be it. Pitt will demolish a young, inexperienced, and talentless team that is UAB. UAB's QB is a banged up and might even be out. I forgot to check on that before I posted but will check and post back later.)

GL everyone and PLEASE give me some feedback on these. I might have missed something plus I like to hear other's views.

I have a few more I will post later but need to check over another time or two.

Agree with the Michigan, Pitt, Kentucky, and Ole miss picks.
-Wondering if the Ole Miss game wont we a shootout.
-IU just plain bad
-Pitt will want to score after a tough aggie defense
-Can't expect to win and not score an offensive TD against the Woverines.

Best of luck.

...like the card, Ward. all except Wash St. :shrug:

OSU should win the Big 10 this year and Wash St. hasn't impressed me thusfar....

...good luck with the games and the studies. (I just started Estate and Gift Tax Law this year...and let me tell ya, it sucks!!! I swear I don't know how or why you want to do this for a living, but to each his own. I may even have a few questions for you later on.... LOL)


p.s. Bama looked good LW at OK. I even thought they were going to pull out the SU win until that last fumble. I'm certainly looking forward to you having to put that Big Orange "T" up as your avatar from October 27 through Thanksgiving.


You should go ahead and warn the troops in Tusca"loser" that...


The Iceman Cometh....

PUHD thanks for the comments.

Taoist,

I can not wait for you to have a big elephant as your avatar after the Bama-Tennessee game. ROLL TIDE

I am going to take estate and gift tax next semester along with decedants estates. I was going to take DE this year but found out the teacher was a huge dick and the most liberal person you will ever meet. I have a personally autographed picture of Rush Limbaugh on my wall, that should tell you where I stand.

Do not worry, I do not want to fool with estate and gift tax crap. I took that class when I got my masters in tax. Loved the teacher, hated the class. I want to do corporate and partnership work. I do not want to get into estate planning. So see, I think it sucks too.

I still disappointed about the UA-OU game. I thought we would win also. Not to mention the ride home would have been a lot better after a win. Yes, I did drive 11.5 hours out to Norman and back. I am scared if flying, if you are about to ask why I did not fly.

Have a good one, and I will talk to you later. Good luck with your studies also.

Yo Bama,

Glad to see you taking that support for the Tide on the road. The second half sure gives us a promising outlook for the season. I still can't figure what the hell happened to Tyler on that last pass. Has he had any quotes about it? I for one jumped all over the +12 and rode it to the bank. Look forward to seeing you put that big elephant on these Tennessee fans, I will be there pulling on the victory!!!

We have a really bad run defense... The problem have not been solved as of yet. We just installed a new defensive scheme with 4-2-5. We are trying to use our speed to cover everything because we are so undersized in our defense. But getting +4 points with Eli, against Texas Tech...I'll take the charity. I don't believe we should be an underdog. Not to dog Klingsbury out, he's great QB, but not in Manning's league yet! I just hope our run defense is up to the task! GLTA.

Dunclock,

I am travel to almost all of the games. The only one I will miss this year will be Arkansas. I have to move the girlfriend and I hate that drive.

Tyler has not said much about the fumble. He just said that he take responsability for it. You can check to see if I missed anything by going to the www.al.com then go to Sports then to Alabama football. This is a good site if you have never looked at. It has sports stories from the Birmingham, Huntsville, Gadsden, and Mobile Papers.

I will pull on the Tide but you got to pull on the Titans to victory. I am also a big Titans fan. Lets hope Carter plays up to his ability while Kerse is out.

Rebel,

Thanks for the heads up and info. I remember that last year UM did not have a good defense but I thought it had improved. Should make for interesting Bama-Ole Miss game. Your offensive strength is our defensive weakness and our offensive strength is your defensive weakness. Should be a big clash of styles.

GL TO ALL

Couldn't have said it any better Bama! If we can stop the run, there is no question we will win this game outright!(For our capping sakes!) I'll take the 4 points and consider it a gift! The line has moved down to +3 now. I hope everyone that's on OleMiss take it when it's at 3.5 or more. That hook might be the difference!

 

[Bama6895]

Adding:

Vandy +21.5
Iowa St+3.5

 

[Bama6895]

Adding these:

South Carolina +5.5
Colorado St -2.5
Miami (OH) +13

I think this will be it for the weekend. I hope everyone does well, with the exception of Dirty Doug. Any comments on these would be appreciated. Would like to hear you angle on these games.

Bama.......I am with you on the Wash St and Ole miss games. That is two of my four picks. Gl , looks like your off to a good start this season.

 

[Master Capper]

I like most of your plays any thoughts on Bama-N Tx? The only 2 games you listed that I am definitly not playing are Boise and Wash State

 

[Bama6895]

Master it is hard to say about Bama.

Bama is coming off a tough loss, but everything I read about says they are over it. Coach Fran seems better at getting our players ready for the smaller games then in years past. So that looks to be in Alabama's favor. Plus the NT does not have much of an arial attack and will try to run the ball and eat up clock. This plays right to Bama's defensive strength, which is stopping the run. Passing is where Bama has meltdowns.

NT as I said will try to eat up the clock and control the ball. This means they want a lower scoring game which in turn means it will be harder to cover the 21 points. But as I said, we can stop the run.

If I had to bet this game, I would take Bama. Also this is the true home opener considering we are playing on campus and not up in the piece of crap Legion Field. I am tempted to bet this myself but I am not, just because they are my favorite team.

Master I hope this helps.
