Week 2

Hola freakitos. Here we are at the second week of the college football season. Thoughts on last week's games:
1. Who knew that my beloved Hurricanes would be involved in the best game of the week? I guess I should not be surprised because any time Miami and Florida State play it's always fun. The only difference between this year and the last 3 is that they both had an offense this time around.
2. The tradition continues with your Chica lacking any ability to successfully prognosticate. The good thing is I do not make a living predicting game winners....oh wait, that's not a good thing. Can someone please answer my plea and find me a full-time job doing this stuff???
3. BYU upset Oklahoma! It was kind of an ugly game as there was very little offense and Sam Bradford was hurt but it was an upset nonetheless; God knows we do love an upset on the Sportschica site.
4. Charleston Southern almost beat Florida. HA, just kidding. I'm going to continue to put this kind of rubbish here until Florida plays a worthy opponent. The good news for Gator fans: Tim Tebow has not ascended back to heaven yet.
5. And finally, Legarrett Blount from Oregon was suspended for the entire season for punching the country freak from Boise State. Here's my thing, I think the dude who taunted him (insert his name here) should have also received a minimum one game suspension for acting like a dang fool!

Okay, on to this week's picks; this week I'm only listing the games that are on my pool and based on the spread (except for the Thursday game). Again, if you disagree with my picks, PLEASE LET A CHICA KNOW! I need all the help I can get.

Thursday
Clemson vs #15 Georgia Tech - Dudes, GT is going to run all over Clemson. Clemson has their own great running back, CJ Spiller, but in the end Tech wins with that blasted triple option. Pick: GT

Saturday
Syracuse vs #7 Penn St - The spread is PSU by 28.5.  Penn St beat Akron by only 24 points last week, I have to think that Syracuse can put up a few points on the Nittany Lions. Pick: Syracuse (Remember, I am picking the spread, freaks!)

#18 Notre Dame vs Michigan - ND by 3.5 is the spread. I'm torn with this one but I'm going to go with the nasty Irish. Pick: ND

#16 TCU vs Virginia - The spread is TCU by 11. TCU all the way. The ACC is weak and Virginia is one of the teams dragging the conference to the bottom...hell, they couldn't even beat a Div 1-AA school last week. Pick: TCU. By the way, I know it is no longer called Div 1-AA but I refuse to call it by its new name.

UCLA vs Tennessee - The spread is UT by 8. I'm going to go with UT since they're home and UCLA is just not good! Pick: Tenn

South Carolina vs #21 Georgia - The spread is GA by 7. LAST week I picked GA to cover the spread and they jacked me so because of the jacked-up-ness, I'm going with the Cocks. Pick: S. Carolina

#3 USC vs #8 Ohio State - The spread is USC by 7.
Uuuuuggggghhhhh. Ohio St BARELY beat Navy last week. Poor pitiful Navy, they are so horribly bad, and yet, OSU only beat them by 4 points. Pick: USC

Well, that's it for the picks. Look for la Chica at the Dolphins vs Falcons game this Sunday. I will be in the Georgia Dome in full Dolphin garb so check me out! Thanks to my buddy Tamera for the awesome tickets....Go Sparty.
