TCU over Okies

sonofabitch ... 26 1/2 is a helluva start.

I was seriously thinking about picking this one because I figured OK would stumble through rebuilding, but I talked myself out of it when Herbie talked up OK on the radio after attending an OK practice. Dammit Herbie ... you just cost me 26 1/2!!!

Good pick, HUB.

Mike Stoops really should have gone for it on 4th down and 3, with under 3 minutes left, on Utah's 42 yard line. Idiot cost me a shot at 7 points. :biggrin:

Bad week for the Stoops boys.

Here are the games for Week 2. If you didn't play in week 1, don't worry, most of us got zero points, so go ahead and join the contest. Just pick one underdog, and if they win the game straight up, you get the number of points that were the spread. If your team covers the spread but loses the game, you get no points. Week 1 standings are a couple posts earlier.

Week 2 point spreads (I will try to update games with no line later)
