A relatively calm weekend at the very top of the college pool standings as well as the top 10 in the land, although OU and Stanford had George and Ringo sweating it out.
Boston College and Mississippi State lost in convincing fashion, Stanford’s OT win saved Ringo from a train-wreck weekend, he remains #1, but the lead is slim.
Tied for 2nd – Mike Lynn and PJ. Both were 6-0, PJ wins the week with 58 points, with 18 from Ohio State and 4 other 9 point wins. MLynn scores 51 led by a road doubler from Sparty.
George and Meathead were also 6-0, but both were 2-3 against the spread and didn’t cover double games.
Texas knocked off TCU for 5-1 Gob, he almost hit the daily double with Oregon.
Navy and Pitt lost by a combined 4 points for Skunk. He goes 4-2 managing 28 points.
“For my doubler this week, I will go with Virginia Tech. Unlike the commissioner, I am doubling my biggest spread, but 1.) I cannot conceive of a situation wherein Va. Tech loses that game; 2.) I should thus be certain of road win points; 3.) Last year Virginia Tech won 38-0, in the only other meeting between the 2 schools, so hopefully I can get a defensive point; 4.) Next week Virginia Tech play Duke so they really shouldn’t be looking ahead; and 5.) Va. Tech’s game last week was cancelled so they should be dying to get on the field and play a game.”
But, Mousie, thou art no thy lane [you aren’t alone]
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men
Gang aft a-gley, [often go awry]
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,
For promised joy.
Another historic bad beat in a double game. Throw a ranked Okie State loss on top. And you get a 27 point, name-changin’ week.
Mousie Garner.
