LSC Pick'em: Week 6

[IronOre]

Well, angelofan looked like a genius by taking Western Oregon over CWU, but then his faith in the other Western (New Mexico) let him down. Still, got WOU over CWU right.

“Almost never made one!” He made 5 of 6. 15/16 PAT and 9/11 FG for the season. I’d say that’s pretty damn good. Seriously. So far.

I was not referring to Urias, but the guy we had years ago. Hughes kept him on the team to make (short) kickoffs for a couple of more years.

I picked WNMU to upset Kingsville at home. When you look at comparable so far this season, WNMU has played a tougher schedule. Kingsville less won at WT than WT handed it to them with 6 TO's. Mustangs continue to roll. Vigil has them jacked.

And I'm stepping out on a limb and picking The Buffs to come away with a win in Wichita Falls. I'm concerned about the loss of Cavender and the DB who's name begins with an S (which I can't spell without looking it up) on defense. I think WT will establish a run game and the Next Man Up on D will work out okay.

Up the middle worked well against MSU last year. That was the best game of the season, but Maskill has had a year to stew about it. I don't think last year's game plan will work this time.

I still don't understand what happened last week. An effective passing game. Multiple FGs MADE. Think back to the Houghtaling days when there was no passing game and the clown Hughes trotted out for FG's almost never made one "but he makes 50 in practice". Did Hughes learn from last week or will it be back to up the middle whether it works or not?

If that game was in Silver City I would have been more apt to pick Western New Mexico.

Long trip to Kingsville and riding the high of beating a more recent traditional power in Midwestern State in overtime might be a little too much to overcome.

That being said you are kicking my arse in the pick ems.

That "long trip" to Kingsville may also help a team "focus" on the job at hand without distractions. You never know. I remember Colby Carthel telling me that the trip to Kingsville was a great team spirit builder, bringing everyone together. WT went down to KTown and kicked some azz that year!

Programming Note: I am going on a trip this weekend, so the pick'em results and next week's pick'em will be delayed until Tuesday.

Well, I sure wasn't going to take this in the direction of BBQ-my wife was in Texas for business a few weeks ago and I'm hoping to get down there and try some.

This is getting as bad as the old "who has the best popcorn and iced threads"

SFU had a pirogi and polish sausage wagon at their stadium. I didn't buy any because I was going to dinner afterwards, but it smelled good.

You've got a meat-like substance between two pieces of bread. That skinny piece of bread holding the two pieces together is statistically insignificant! The majority is wrong on this one.

I'm going to defer to one of my favorite cooking authors, Kenji Lopez-Alt, on this one:

(yep, he's playing both sides)
