Can you believe it's the last week of football already? Time flies during college football season. Hopefully you had a good Thanksgiving and by "good" I mean you didn't kill anyone in your family. Time to loosen the belts, hit the couch, and watch some football.
Tonight we get two games both starting at 7:30. On Fox Sports 1 No. 5 TCU is playing for a spot in the inaugural college football playoff. In their way: Texas, a team looking to stay above .500. Over on ESPN you can catch LSU as they travel to take on Texas A&M. One thing's for sure: the state of Texas will be busy tonight.

So here it is, all the marbles come down to one week. Our leader Chad can get 1 game wrong and still be guaranteed the BSD Prognosticator of the Year award. 2 wrong and he's still guaranteed a tie. The pack needs him to fall flat on his face if anyone but me is going to catch him.

Someone please tell me how you pick Purdue/Indiana, it's like the Big Ten Suck bowl. The winner of Illinois/Northwestern get a bowl bid, the loser goes home for the year. Thank God the Michigan - Ohio State game means absolutely nothing outside of the two fan-bases and speaking of meaningless games: OH HI RUTGERS/MARYLAND!

I'm turning in my homer card for the first time this year and picking Penn State. Which means they will lose by 3 touchdowns you can count on it. There's a lot of belief in Iowa and not so much in Indiana and bscaff goes postal for one more week. What say you oh loyal reader?......
