DFC Week Twelve

Week Twelve in the DFC

This is it, ladies & gentlemen. Remember, once you submit your picks, they CANNOT be changed for any reason. I will submit my picks to a third party (probably Stephanie and/or Wookiee) so when I go 8-0 and fly into the postseason, no one can make any claims of impropriety.

College Games
All ranks from AP Poll, all times CST

Oklahoma Sooners (6-3) at #21 Texas Tech Red Raiders (8-2), 11am
Boomer Sooners become bowl eligible after their win over Coach Fran, and now take on the other Texas team, the high flying Red Raiders, who were put down in a mild upset by OK State. Attention... there has been an Adrian Peterson sighting.

#9 Ohio State Buckeyes (8-2) at #17 Michigan Wolverines (7-3), 12pm ABC
Penn State takes on Michigan State later on in the afternoon. You'd expect the Lions to dominate, but this is college football. Anyway, this OSU/Michigan winner will win the Big Ten IF Penn State loses... and if the Lions win, the winner of this one (especially OSU) takes a huge step towards that BCS at-large bid. (Also the TB Game)

#8 Alabama Crimson Tide (9-1) at #11 Auburn Tigers (8-2), 230pm CBS
Uh........ um....... yeah.

Clemson Tigers (6-4) at #19 South Carolina Gamecocks (7-3), 6pm
Steve Superior taking on The Bowdoin Son Not Named Terry, fresh off a win in Bowdoin Bowl VII yesterday. Actually, it wasn't just a win, it was a domination over Florida State. And who doesnt love the Gamecocks right now? I mean, when Georgia loses to Kentucky, South Carolina will win the SEC West!

NFL Games

Philadelphia Eagles (4-4) at NYGiants (6-3), 12pm Fox
I gve you the announcers take anytime the Giants play ball: Eli Manning Eli Manning Eli Manning Eli Manning Amani Toomer Eli Manning Eli Manning Eli Manning Tiki Barber Eli Manning Eli Manning Eli Manning Peyton vs Eli Super Bowl Oh How We Dream Eli Manning Eli Manning Eli Manning...

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-3) at Atlanta Falcons (6-2), 12pm Fox
When Tampa beat Washington on Sunday, I heard words I'd never heard before... "Chris Simms has led the team to a victory". Who knew?

Buffalo Bills (4-5) at San Diego Chargers (5-4), 315pm CBS
The Bills did a great job shutting down a Priest-less Chiefs team this weekend. However, they go to the coast to take on a LaDanian Tomlinson team... if you aren't watching this guy, you are missing it.

Indianapolis Colts (9-0) at Cincinnati Bengals (7-2), 315pm CBS
Can the Colts go undefeated? Probably not. But it will be fun watching them try. And don't you just love the Bungals, the NFL version of Vanderbilt (only the Bungels would be bowl eligible) and look out--Carson Palmer may be a QB decision that just might work out (Akili Smith, anyone? Anyone?)
