Copy and paste for one. And two, do you see a freakin' check mark by his name? :rofl:

Yeah, I noticed no check by his name. Also noticed you didn't check on Barnhart. He's been pretty high on the Tide as of late. I take it you're not a big fan of his. I've actually come to like him more than I used to since I've started watching the "Talking Football" show on CSS.

As he was just as high on Nutt and Ole Miss. IIRC, he was pretty high on LSU beating Bama in BDS this year as well.

It's not that I don't like his observations and reporting. But, when it comes to picking games? He's not one I trust with X's and O's like the other guys. In fact, I'd trust Fulmer quicker than Barnhart.

I have not watched the show on CSS—it's not a part of my cable company. So, might change my mind on TB with more exposure.

I'm not complaining. I just thought that may was so nice they checked him twice.

I put the checks in...didn't compile the names though.

I can't say I've seen a list that was so evenly divided though. Fact is, not a soul knows how this game will come out.

I sure don't.

All I've said this week is this.

If Bama hits 30 we should win the game.

If it goes to OT I'm going with UF only because I think we'd settle for a FG and they could get it in the end zone.

I do believe, without a shadow of doubt, this game comes down to how Greg plays. If he's on? It's a VT / Clemson repeat.
 
Great post Terry. That really paints a picture...a pretty Crimson picture.

How does Dick Vitale make the list? Seems to me that a basketball guy has no more business venturing into picking football than Richard Simmons -- who by the way picks Florida because he likes their Tight End.
