Happy Halloween, from my porch to your computer.  ![[Linked Image]](http://i422.photobucket.com/albums/pp310/EngineDrWill/pickem/pack_zpsbb8be08c.jpg) Man it is hard to believe, we're in week #10 already. It seems only yesterday we were all dreaming of glory on the gridiron and looking forward to utter domination in the Pick'em. Yeah, seems like a long, long, long time ago for me too. The heat is on and we're heading into the home stretch. Every game is critical from here on in. And last week's winner, Heavywalker has came through with some real holiday spirit. Between the two of us we have a list of 10 games that will rival any scares a stray zombie or ghoul can throw your way. Redemption is just an upset away. Good luck, Will Week #10 Games List:
1) USC at Oregon St. - Fri
2) Wisconsin at Iowa
3) Army at Air Force
4) Michigan at Michigan St.
5) Minnesota at Indiana
6) Northwestern at Nebraska
7) Georgia at Florida
8) Tennessee at Missouri
9) Oklahoma St. at Texas Tech
10) Miami Fla at Florida St. + total points tie breaker
Smellin' a lot of 'if' coming off this plan.

What? No Utah picks!? This is a real pick and treat.  Dawgs-Gators is a toughie. Are all of the Mizzou games in Columbia?

Mizzou sure must be beat up after that run of games they've had.
AF-Army is a coin flip.
Which Nebraska shows up?
Minnesota-Indiana = coin flip.
UGA-UF and OKST-TT coin flips as well.
Tough week.

Martinez won't be starting at QB, Armstrong will.

That makes a difference for sure. Injury updates are something I'm going to have to look at hard this week.

Fla actually plays some D. I fear UGA may be looking at a three game skid....
Couldn't say about Army-AF?
I sank last week and fear this week ain't gonna help!

Martinez suffered a hip pointer during the Minnesota game. http://espn.go.com/college-football...s-qb-taylor-martinez-suffers-hip-pointerLINCOLN, Neb. -- Redshirt freshman Tommy Armstrong has again moved into the No. 1 quarterback position at Nebraska after Taylor Martinez suffered a hip pointer in the Huskers' 34-23 loss Saturday at Minnesota, coach Bo Pelini said.
Martinez did not practice Sunday.
If the Huskers had played Monday, the coach said, Armstrong would have started, although Pelini has not made a determination for this weekend's game against Northwestern. Martinez also said the injury to his left foot had been inaccurately described to the media as turf toe, which is a sprain of the ligaments around the big toe joint. The injury actually is to his second and third toes. He declined to comment when asked if either of the toes were sprained or broken. Martinez said his injury probably was described publicly as turf toe because it's a commonly understood ailment. He said he's been told the injury he has -- whatever it is -- can take three or four months to heal.
Asked how close he is to 100 percent, Martinez said, "I'm getting there."

Something to think about on the FSU-UM matchup... This will be the 12th time Miami and Florida State meet with both ranked in the AP Top 10. Miami has won eight of the previous 11 such meetings. Not sure many (any?) rivalries can make that claim. Perhaps USC-Notre Dame or Michigan-Ohio State.

Why is Indiana -9.5 on Minnesota..?
Seems like it should be the other way around...

Just to [bleep] with your head and mine. Several of these lines make no sense to me.
And then you have Mister Nebraska Mike saying to bet the farm on NW. Ugh!

I'm thinking USC needs to be treated like Texas: Whatever you are most uncomfortable picking is the right call. :p
What a way to start the week off.
About Indiana... well the odds favor the offense. No way they stop the gophers all day. But they score in bunches.

Army-AF looks to be a potential barn burner. Sure wished they would air these military games.
Iowa is gonna' burn me again. I just know it! ACK!
Have to go meet Mike "BOWHUNR" at 3 so you guys play nice. :-)
