A few notes:

  • BK and I disagreed on a few things (Boise, Arkansas, Texas A&M) but not much, really. If I were the only BlogHawg, I would never tempt the Jinx Gods by picking Arkansas to best Bama, win the West and play in a BCS game. That said, I have them at 10-2 with  a Bama loss and one more along the way. But, a  BlogHawg tie had to be broken and the tie went to BK on pretty much everything because he is hardheaded like that. Oh, and Mark Ingram’s knee surgery today can’t be dismissed, either.

  • For those that decry this as a homer pick, one might want to take a look at our 2009 predictions, (READ: Bama fan) and note that we did pretty well, and were any semblance of competence from Alex Tejada in the clutch from nailing the Arkansas and SEC picks about as well as one could hope to given all the variables involved.

  • The Boise BCSCG pick will be decided this Sunday.

  • T-minus 2 Days to football that counts– I can feel it.
