Upon reflection, I am glad I didn't put many points on the Huskies. each team should be penalized for lack of defense. On to an action packed weekend.

Speak Freak…
That has got to be the most points scored in a bowl game
Hey, I have to work tomorrow. I check this out in the AM. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
I spoke too quick. Baylor just scored. Maybe I should have picked total points scored-102 right now-will they break 150?
At least I am ahead of my 9 and 7 year old grandsons by 1 point.
Skip, there is still hope for you. As for me, if I can't win the points race, there's still a chance for the Speak Freakers title. Ha!
Wish I had more points riding on the Huskies right now. What about you Mike? I missed most of the game. Has there been any defense on either side of the ball?
Bob Rudy, it's good to see you on the top 10 speak freakers. I wish I could claim my picks have been researched, but the fact is that i ran out of time and picked the home team, assigning asending point values. I would not find any comfort in finding that we have picked the same team. I am hoping to see myself out of last place sometime soon.
... but you don't mind, right, Bob Rudy?
Baylor should have punted. I guess hindsight is 20-20.
Hey Bruce,
How's the weather down there in the basement?
Where's Derek? Have you gone mute?
Hmmm, with a couple wins tonight I'll be in 4th place, give or take
An Xlarge first for me. I'm on speak freak while enroute to San Antonio to watch Baylor in the Alamo bowl that I have all 35 points on Baylor to win. Sic'em!
Happy Birthday Jeff! May both of today's picks be the right one's for you.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEFF!!!
Everyone join me in wishing our host Jeff Hartman a happy birthday. Happy Birthday Murmur!
WOW, just glad to be a part of the Archer Invitational. Malc, the fam is making ya proud, but did you miss the deadline this year on your picks? I mean from where I'm at in the standings I don't see your name so I figured you didn't get 'em in on time.
Oh well, like those sad Cubbies we um, dislike, there's always next year:(.
I am strugglin! I'm like the one kid in class who brings down the grading curve...like SEVERELY! But that's a good thing...right? Well...not in this case :-(
The coach of team archer isn't quite keeping up with the team. . Hmm
Its time to play "catch up on that Archer team. What a start! good job
Nice work team archer!
Look at "team Archer" just takin over XL12 - sans me (UGH). I'm just doin my part to bring some humility to the Archer prowess, ya know? :-)
Does TCU have a defense?
At the bar watching the TCU LA TECH game..... tons of TCU fans here!
Not a chance BOB. Biggest point spread in the bowls.
Marshall Wins !!!! (PS-make that "The Herd". My vision was impaired on my previous post.) Now on to my net "upset" pick-Louisanna Tech over TCU. What do you think Skip? Do we have a prayer?
All of sudden, I am liking my "upset" pick. Go "The Hero" and finish strong in the 2nd half.
Not that they had much of a chance before, but Iowa has even less chance now since running back Marcus Coker (nearly their only running back and last year's Insight Bowl MVP) was today suspended and won't be playing. Oh well.
WOO - HOO!!!
I'm in 2nd place!
YEAH ME!!!
Well...that was a the quickest way to stink up XLarge 2011-12. Even when my pick makes a great comeback they find a way to lose. 26 points lost on the heels of 31 points lost in the final minute. Unbelievable...
Had to finish my picks in haste today. Knew that adding a quick 31 pts for Utah State was gonna doom me. Only 2 games in and I already lose 31 pts. Ugh...
Sweet finish Ohio U. Better than against N. Ill. Drew, You have an interesting way to value your picks.lol
Bummer. I was well on my way to picking all 35 games correctly.
I never said "last". But since the Rudy's tend to clump towards the bottom it leaves fewer spots for the rest of us. Remember, cream always rises.
Merry Christmas Gio. Thanks for the well wishes. Jake, name the last time a Rudy finished last in this thing. Check yourself.
You fooled me Chris you bugger. You picked MI
How about UCLA getting into a Bowl with a 6-7 record?
It's pretty ridiculous how many Big 10 teams are in bowl games this year. SEC is in a close second, but at least they're good at football.
Welcome and Merry Christmas to all, especially team Archer, D. "not so Rose" Jacobsen, Unstoppable M. nice guy Rudness, to name a few. . .
XLarge 2012...let's go!!
There should be a "like" button on here because I'd totally hit it for that last post.
Team Rudy: increasing everyone else' odds of not finishing at the bottom since 1996.
AHH you bugger, you got me! you picked the wolverines lol
Chris Burns, are you a Buckeye fan too or just a MICHIGAN hater.
MJ what's up with Wynn. Why isn't he on this thing?
Hey Derrick/Delzell-
Now that Nebraska is playing for the good guys, do you have any pro-Big 10 statements you'd like to make?
Someone get on the horn to Sheaffer.
Inside Scoop. Virginia Tech pick. 35pt value.
Hey Jeff, could you send Harold's info to hgianopulos@gmail.com
Thanks g
