Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 6 Predictions
We’re into Week 6 of the College Football season, and the Yumps are looking to build on the momentum of their Week 5 win, and tighten the overall gap, or possibly even take the lead in the standings. They gained one point last night as Nebraska miraculously stormed back and won a game they had [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 5 Results
As Leah pointed out a little earlier today, the Yumps most definitely rolled the Chumps in Week 5. With only two blemishes on their picks (Leah had Cal and Katie took Boomer Sooner) the Yumps earned their first weekly victory and cut into the Chumps lead. P Crush earned the Week 5 Title as biggest [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 5 Predictions
Week 5 in college football land, and a lot of big games this weekend. Both the Cats and Cards have big conference battles and there are three games pitting two Top 25 teams against each other. Once again no one was feeling a Cats upset as Chumps and Yumps alike unanimously declared Bama the winner. [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 4 Results
It was a week of upsets, and in two of the Pinkie’s game picks, a Top 25 team fell to an unranked. Iowa again handled Penn State and South Florida went into Tallahassee and came out with a victory sans Matt Groethe. P Crush was the only prognosticator to get either one of those games [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 4 Predictions
The Yumps look to make up some ground this week. Things kickoff at noon tomorrow as South Florida and Florida State meet at Doak Campbell Stadium where the Bulls will be without Matt Grothe, the Big East career leader in total offense with 10,875 yards (who tore the ACL in his left knee in last [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 3 Results
A tough week for the Yumps, but I know all about tough weeks (see my 0h-fer-five performance in Week 2…) Guy got only 3-of-5 this week, but held on to the overall lead with 11-of-15 total picks correct. Rohrer, P Crush and nickev are all right on his heels with 10 total points each. The [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 3 Predictions
Well, I knew I was gonna be separating from the pack one direction or the other, unfortunately for me it was the other…. So (1) South Carolina being unable to convert basically a 1st-and-goal from the 11 yard line with under a minute to play in Georgia, (2) USC’s Pete Carroll going for it on [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 2 Results
What an unbelievable week of college football. Just like Rich Brooks said via his twitter page, USC vs. Ohio State…wow, Notre Dame vs. Michigan…double wow, South Carolina vs. Georgia…triple wow. Another wow was Carl H’s 0-fer performance. It’s tough to go 0-fer, especially when all of the games were as close as they were. Guy [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 2 Predictions
Last Week saw the Chumps get out to an early, slim margin over the Yumps, 19-15. Leah and Katie will try and overthrow us Chumps here in Week 2 and gain the overall lead. The big game this week is obviously Pete Carroll’s fourth ranked Trojans of Southern California marching into the Horseshoe and looking [...]
Chumps vs. Yumps: Week 1 Results
Opening weekend of college football is complete. The ‘Cats rolled, the Cardinals struggled against the nation’s worst team, BYU upset the Sooners without Sam Bradford and Florida State and Miami actually put up some points. I loved BYU head coach Bronco Mendenhall’s interview after the 14-13 win over Oklahoma. The man was all business. Smile, [...]
