Updating my "buy or sell" tally...
Texas Longhorns (4-2)
What did I say? Sell. Already chalked that one up last week, but the Sooners helped solidify my pick.
Arizona State (6-0)
What did I say? Buy. Barely got by Wazzu to make it six straight. The Huskies and Golden Bears are next.
Verdict: Holding out.
Clemson (4-2)
What did I say? Sell. Clemson loses in a game of Beamer Ball to solidify what I said about the Tigers back when.
Kentucky (5-1)
What did I say? Buy. I said Kentucky would have to post a 2-1 record against Spurrier, Miles, and Meyer to confirm my "buy" pick. They start the stretch 0-1. I also said UK-Florida would be the determining factor in the SEC East race. Oops.
Verdict: Leaning towards a miscue here.
Cincinnati (6-0)
What did I say? Sell. Curses! The Bearcats hung with Rutgers and ran away from Piscataway with a win for my first missed pick.
Verdict: Incorrect, sir.
Wisconsin (5-1)
What did I say? Sell. I rebound with a "sell" pick on the Badgers, who fell on the road to the Illini. PSU and OSU still wait in the wings.
Verdict: I'll give myself credit for this one for now, unless they come back and sweep the Lions and Buckeyes.
Missouri (5-0)
What did I say? Buy. Bing bing! The Tigers destroyed the Huskers at home and now have the inside track in the Big 12 North.
Verdict: Another in my favor.
South Florida (5-0)
What did I say? Buy. Shaky against FAU, but still the Big East favorites with Cincinnati.
Purdue (5-1)
What did I say? Sell. Joe Tiller folds in a marquee game? Who woulda thunk?
Verdict: Ding ding!
Kansas (5-0)
What did I say? Sell. Uhm, oops?
Verdict: Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeech. Crash. Burn.
Connecticut (5-0)
What did I say? Sell. My bad, Virginia took on Middle Tennessee this week. The Huskies were off and will play at Virginia next week.
Verdict: Waiting on UConn-UVA.
Michigan State (4-2)
What did I say? Buy. Well, they won't be 6-1 rolling into Columbus thanks to a win in OT by Northwestern.
Verdict: Another crash and burn.
So I go from 3-0 last week to 6-3, with 3 teams still in limbo (Arizona State, Kentucky, and Connecticut). Leaning towards a missed pick on UK, though. We'll know by next week. I'd be more than happy with 8-4 for my first go around, just like Joe Paterno would be.
