28. Double User Error

I see that when I posted my picks, Condemn was still logged it. So my picks show as his - he has two sets and I have none. Sorry for that, too late to go back and edit. Now - I probably shouldn't say anything, but all things considered Condem might be just as happy to trade and take mine since I'm doing a wee bit better than him. Then again....this could be his week.

The post that is mine along with my picks is below:

29. Another game within a half point of the spread, last night...

..how many this season? Makes me wonder.

[enuegii]

30. I think there's five within 1/2 point, eight within one point,

and three pushes so far.

[Condem]

31. Incredible. Mostly, I've been on the wrong side of those half points.

Oh well. Okay. Off to the Homecoming parade and then a Government Mule concert downtown!!!

[Condem]

32. Some pix from Homecoming vs Penn State

Just beautiful!


Some late night hijinx


Goodnight, Kinnick!

[terryg11]

33. how awesome was striping?

it looked great on tv, before the game a lot of people tailgating were kind of bitching about how they had to wear black or gold, and I didn't think it would work too well, I was wrong!! It looked awesome!
nice pics, btw

[Condem]

34. What an atmosphere!!

The fuzz even let us tailgate for an hour after the game. Just a great night!!
