MAC Blog picks: week 8

By Tim Riordan@UBBullRun Oct 22, 2009, 11:07am EDT

Let's go Rockets was perfect last week and has now caught up to The MAC Daily for most wins. Bull Run and Red&Black continue to fall off the pace.

I am finished letting EMU Burn me (now that I say that watch them go out and win). Two times I picked them to win (Kent, Army) and two times the burned me. So even though I have this nagging feeling that the Eagles will beat BSU this week (started after OverThePylon announced Page is out for the year) I am going to go against my gut and picking BSU.

I also find myself picking against UB (I have my contacts in so my blue tinted glasses would give me a headache today) though I am somewhat heartened, as a Bulls fan, to see that Fire Up Chips (our current % leader) has UB picked.
