Its time... the email you have been waiting for has finally arrived. The kickoff to the 2005 Deuce Football Championships...
This year we are honored to have in our midst as our guest analyst future hall of famer, and winner of 2 DFC championships in four years, including last season, Chris "Wookiee" Fulaytar, giving us expert analysis and his picks for the season.
All games are college this week, All rankings are from DeucESPN Poll, all gametimes CST:
Saturday's Games:
Colorado State Rams at Colorado Buffalos, 2:30pm, TBS
Traditionally one of the first games of the year, its always a toss up...
Wookiee sez: Yeah, whatever. Colorado rolls
#18 Boise State Broncos at #13 Georgia Bulldogs, 430p
Boise State is always a good team, but lets see how they do against the traditionally powerful Dawgs of GA
Wookiee sez: BSU is from the BIG WEST for crying out loud. Quit drinking the Boise Kool-Aid People. Georgia ...... Big.
#17 Texas A&M Aggies at Clemson Tigers, 7pm, ABC
Coach Fran takes his boys against Coach Tommy, who somehow keeps his job always at the last minute
Wookiee sez: Texas A&M b/c Clemson's new uniforms are UGGGGGGGLY! Also b/c every time A&M wins, Bama fans get even madder at him.
Notre Dame Fightin' Catholics at #23 Pittsburgh "don't call us Pitt" Panthers, 7pm, ABC
The defending Big East champs host the revived Irish, now coached by the Super Bowl champ Patriots' former sideline coach Charlie Weis
Wookiee sez: Actually they are called Pitt again. And being the defending Big Least champ is not something I would crow too loudly about. God is on Notre Dame's side. Go Irish!
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at #16 Auburn Tigers, 7:45pm, ESPN
Two years ago, GT gave Auburn their second loss in a row, setting up a disasterous season after being ranked preseason #2. Last season's 13-0 told a different story... but how will the Tigers handle losing half of their defense?
Wookiee sez: They will handle it fine. Auburn will be 6-0 going into LSU
Sunday's Games
West Virginia Mountaineers at Syracuse "dont call us Orangemen" Orange, 12:30pm, ABC
Yeah... I won't pretend to have a clue about this game. And yes, they are no longer Orangemen. Pick 'em.
Wookiee sez: I don't have a clue either. Take the 'Cuse at home.
#8 Virginia Tech Hokies at N.C.State Wolfpack, 6:15pm, ESPN2
As much as I'm thinking Va Tech, can you every truly count out the Wolfpack? Don't urn your back on the Wolfpack, you might end up Their the schitzos of the ACC
Wookiee sez: If Frank Beamer can hide the bong and the doritos from Marcus Vick, then the Hokies will win. I think he will.
Monday Night Game
#9 Miami Hurricanes at #14 Florida State Seminoles, 7pm, ABC
Speaking of hurricanes... What will it be this year... wide right? wide left? (also the tiebreak game)
Wookiee sez: FSU has lost 6 straight to the 'Canes. The last two they have manged to give away in impressive displays of choking. They will probably do it again. Take Miami from now until forever until Bowden's Boys figure out a way to win the big one.
TieBreak Game...
Total points scored in the Miami/FSU game
Picks due by Friday afternoon. Send to this email address (thedfc@gmail.com) or david.dollar@nbcuni.com, I will send a confirmation that your picks have been received.
