Before This Particular House Of Cards Crumbles

I must take a moment to note that your blogfather not only is leading the BON ESPN Pick 'Em Challenge, but he's ranked #59... in the entire country.

Am I jinxing my future picks with this moment of hubris? Undoubtedly. Do I care? Clearly not.

Bow down, BONers. At least for one week - bow down.

Like the t-shirt at the truck stop says...

59th place is the 58th loser.

Second to last

of the people who actually made picks for the first two weeks (There are actually about 5 people who did not pick this week that are still ahead of me).

Last place, that would be aggie 12th Man Child.

No faith in Brandon Cox at all

Of course, South Florida tried to give away the win.

BON Entries

How many BON entries are there? Seems to be a crapload.

by JohnsonUT on Sep 9, 2007 5:07 PM CDT reply actions

Roughly 250

It's a crowded field

I told my wife (who cares less about football, other than when OU loses, and I'm in the doldrums) I was number 2 in a Longhorn pick 'em pool. She said I better not be gambling. I said, heck no, at most the winner gets a Longhorn t-shirt or something like that. She just laughed like what on earth would I do with that.

Should have known better about Oregon. Washington was an easy pick. Wavered on SF/Auburn, but went with the home team.

Good weekend for the Big XII. I hope Nebraska puts up a fight against USC. Last year they played not to lose badly. Pac 10 looks strong this year.

Nice turn around, UT, in the 2nd half to dispatch TCU.
