Three teams are playing up, two are playing down. Who's in for a close one?
For the record, I think the Yotes can be competitive, but the other 4 look like huge blowouts waiting to happen. But I know that doesn't jibe with local conventional wisdom.

Three teams are playing up, two are playing down. Who's in for a close one? For the record, I think the Yotes can be competitive, but the other 4 look like huge blowouts waiting to happen. But I know that doesn't give with local conventional wisdom. I agree with USD@KSU, but many will say it should be SDSU@ISU. I could go with either, but I really think ISU is going to be tough this year. They are poised to be a contender in the Big 12(0). I'm slightly less bullish on KSU. as for "give", I was going to correct you and say it should be "jive". Then I looked it up and found out we are both wrong: www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/jive-jibe-gibeBasically, It should be "Jibe", but increasingly people are wrongly substituting with "Jive" which has an entirely different definition. "Gibe" is also wrong, but sometimes used. So we are both wrong, but you are more wronger. |

I've got to say, it isn't encouraging that some people think Ind. St/Quincy will be a tight game. Going to be a long year for ISUb.

We can wrap this up:
Ind St. 49 Quincy 0
Miss St. 17 Oklahoma St. 58
USD 24 KSU 27
Ill St. 46 St. X 0
SDSU 0 Iowa St. 84
We will use the extrapolated score of the SDSU game for official poll results. As such, the Yotes were the closest game by a mile. If you voted for that game, congrats! You are a winner of an 'atta boy' or 'atta girl'.
