Waco Kid's college football 2025 week 2

The_Waco_Kid's Avatar
Each week upcoming games can be discussed and predictions made, name-calling after victories and general all-around college football discussion! Each week will be closed out by the next Monday and a new thread opened for the current college football schedule for each week.

Rules -

"Rules?? We don't need no stinkin’ rules!”

Actually we do.

WKWCFR rule 1

"Lies, damn lies and statistics!"

British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli

If you quote a stat, record, 3rd down conversion rate, an all-time mark or the number of jock straps an 85-man team needs ...

Post it! If you can't post a link to it, it's bogus!
What's valid in the Internet age? Just about anything! Any of the major sports publications, local newspapers, any of the big networks and official school and NCAA sites just to cover the big ones.

WKWCFR rule 2

Predictions must be posted 1 day in advance! If you haven't read the sports page and figgured out who's going to win by the day before ya never will!

Must be time stamped before Midnight the day before game-day, for any weekly games Thur-Sun on the current weekly schedule.

So there you have it, pretty basic! You can post on general topics of your favorite teams regardless of that week's opponent. Just remember WKWCFR rule 1

the Bambino rule


feel free to post any college match ups of your favorite teams ranked or not. at any level of football. if you post it TWK will make a pick for the game.

============================== ============================== ==
... Okay there sporting blokes... After "3-0" last week,
lemme wander in here with a few bonzer choices:

... I'm seeing the Cowboy Strong actually handed almost FOUR (4) TD's
on the wager line... Yes, Oregon is a good side, but surely seem
like too many points to overcome... Take Okla State and points!

... Blimey! ... West Virginia (WVU) not really getting much respect.
Used to live over that-way and been to a few "Backyard Brawler"
battles against Pittsburgh. ... I like WVU beating the green
Ohio team. ... WVU should win by 10 or more!

... And I'll give ya a "marquee match" game - Michigan visiting
Oklahoma. ... The Sooners (???) should prevail by a TD or so.
