If my memory serves, he also said this vs. Cal, Wisky and N'Western--I know it's part of his 'act', but yeah, it's getting old.

I know people don't like him, but those aren't terrible upset picks.

Just be glad he is picking against you, rather than cursing you by picking you to win. :)

IMO, the SEC should get rid of their championship game and go to 10-game schedule, w/5 games at home for each school.

Given the new playoff schedule, the SEC Championship game isn't as necessary whereas the amount of quality wins will be more important.

Cal over anybody is a terrible upset pick.

Mark May would pick a bottom feeder high school team over Ohio State.

Reps. He might as well have picked UAB over Alabama. That pick was a fireable offense.

Miami is not very good. A terrible Wake team is dominating them right now. No way in hell they can beat FSU next week.

So is Johnny. He's on pace to crush last year's numbers. He won't (and probably shouldn't) win the Heisman, but it's certainly going to be tough to get him out of the conversation. Similar to when Tebow didn't repeat...there was more to it than his stats. People didn't want it.

Mariota's gotta be way out in front I would think. 28 total TD and 0 INT.

Him and Jameis are clearly, especially if they keep winning. That's what I mean though, say in the end Oregon has a loss and Mariota comes down to earth a bit. Any benefit of the doubt is going to go against the incumbent, at least when talking Heisman.

Because of his crappy defense, Manziel has had to take a lot of chances and has been in a lot more do or die situations.

The Houston true Freshman QB O'Korn looks really good. Looks like he may have the next Case Keenum career...

I also completely forgot they were in the AAC.

Nice moment for Bobby B. Planting the spear at midfield.
