The official football picks thread

[kingsnthahole]

welcome everyone and stay tuned for tomorrow's pick in the Gtech/Miami SHOWDOWN

[PANAMHIEST]

I want to know how in the world are we suppose to pick the winner in the dallas cowboy vrs new york giants game. I am a big time cowboys fan, but from a sports book perspective, this is a nightmare of a pick in my opinion. I mean the cowboys have a great team and got 3 TD's over 30 yards last week, and the giants got a great defense, but an integeral part of their offensive schem is gone in plaxibo buress, the guy that helped win alot of games against the cowboys after tikki barber left. So who is the safe pick here, the straight money pick?

Easy. You click the Dallas button.

3 point favorites at home? Yes pls.

[Pokerkitty6]

Maimi all the way!

[GloBug]

yeah i wont doubt miami this week with the way they played FSU. and watch for the kid Jacory Harris the miami QB he is a stud.

[GaTechMom]

Georgia Tech all the way. Also how come you guys are talking pro games when Kingsnthahole posted about the college game.

[Pokerkitty6]

I knew we would hear from mom tonight. Miami will win. I am so convinced I am wearing my Miami Hurricanes doo-rag to both of my doctors tomorrow. It's funny when I wear it around here because I am in gator country! Either way it will be a great game!

[targetguy1]

yeah if i was a betting man i would put the money on mia to take this one by 17.

[kingsnthahole]

first off, the g-men vs the boys, the is gonna be a hardnosed game, i wouldnt touch the spread in this one...i think c-boys win outright only bc it's at home...i would suggest picking the under or dallas moneyline in this one, unless the giants d scores 2 touchdowns, this one will end 17-14 Cboys ontop. Jacobs could run wild though....and thats scary!

[kingsnthahole]

gtech-miami pick will be posted at about 6pm tonight.

[PANAMHIEST]

Thanks for the opinions on the dallas-giants game. As fr as g-tech against miami, I am gonna go with g-tech here, just by what my gut is telling me. I know miami is a great team, and they have been a solid program for a long time now, But under the spotlight in whats probably going to be a nationally telivised game, G-Tech will shine, and stun alot of people.

[skinsfan2]

I believe the Giants will loose this as the barely survived against the Redskins last week the skins came back tough in the second half.

[eejit101]

Giant will def lose.

As for CFL i have no idea so i just ignore it

[kingsnthahole]

OK, it's 6:10 pm...i'm at work till 9, so i'm gonna miss kickoff...but here goes the pick.

This is going to be a GREAT football game, very close all the way down to the very last minute! Miami handed it to Florida State last week, however last week is last week and it was a matchup of two solid, not great teams. Ga. Tech has the goods this year to be a great team. The first thing that comes to mind is John Nesbitt. Solid QB qith GREAT running ability. Did you know that Ga Tech already has combined as a team in 2 games for over 450 yds rushing... Mostly due to this elusive QB. He needs to get his passing efficiency down, however. I look to Ga. Tech to control this game on the ground, and win with a late drive in the 4th quarter. The Yellow Jackets as a team this year will only go as far as Nesbitt's arm will allow. You will see teams keying on him all game with a spy. And it will happen tonight!

Ga. Tech to beat the spread at 4

Ga. tech to win moneyline (35-31)

and ofcourse im taking the over at 54...its the ACC, theres no defense, BIG SCORES!

[thenutzaa1]

easy win for GTech...... about the moneyline that is tough!!! but i like Gtech in both as well kings!!

miami starts off flat b/c they beat their instate rivals fsu last week. about miami's QB he gets shutdown all game for running. Gtech watched the tapes of last week.


GTECH covering 4 and moneyline!!!!! haha i got 100 on gtech 50 on the spread and 50 on the moneyline...... lets go GTECH!!!!!!

[kingsnthahole]

its a win win win situation for you, hahahaha

[kingsnthahole]

thank god for espn 360...stupid gym doesn't even have espn...what a bunch of chumps

[TerpZone]

easy win for GTech.

LOL Nothing is easy in the ACC.

Screw GT though. Miami >>>>>> GT.

[kingsnthahole]

it woudl appear as if Ga tech has NO PASS DEFENSE...

[kingsnthahole]

ok so miami dominated...
i want to see them play one more game well and i will stop holding grudges against miami.

[targetguy1]

didnt i say miami by 17? yeah i thought so. only won by 16 but it you guys would of listen to me before hand you wouldnt of lost so much money betting on gt.

[PANAMHIEST]

I am a bit let down I guess that this game didnt live up to what it was hyped up to be. This was suppose to be a great game between two very good teams, but miami came out and made a laughing stock of g-tech defense the whole game. g-tech has a great offense, but the coaches need to kick the crap outta the defensive unit this week and whip them boys back in shape or something. This was not a great game, and miami deserved to win. They came prepared with a great offensive package, and solid defense.

[thenutzaa1]

i turned the game off after the first quarter, ugly performance from the yellow jackets!!!! Miami QB came out and played ball 20-25 with 3 TD's......where is the defense. Gtech defense should of not been on the field and maybe Miami would of not score as much!!!!

[kingsnthahole]

gtech lost ALOT of stock last night in my book... good thing i didn't bet, i picked them for my streak but no cash$

Again, ACC football: Don't Bother.

If you're not Vtech or Miami (who isn't really an ACC team anyway) then you're not good. It's as simple as that.
