Congrats to @mikeinknoxville on winning Week 2 with a score of 14 points! It was a tough week. And honestly, I feel like this upcoming week is just as tough! Mike has also taken the lead in the cumulative standings. Will we see a Tennesse Vol win the Pick'Em contest two years in a row?

@dukedevilz is supposed to babysit me in this thread every year but I guess he’s been slacking

Hah right! Unforgivable!

I do try to tag those that haven't made picks, but I'm clearly not going to be able to do that every week.

 

[jhmossy]

@PA_Panther comes in first when he picks the games and dead ****ing last when @dukedevilz picks them. You can't make this shit up.

Uh….never mind! Marquette’s D is really damn good. They may be better without Kolek

Honestly, go **** yourself for making me pick Purdue

 

[dukedevilz]

Marquette with back-to-back wins in the Pick'Em contest! Don't take the Golden Eagles lightly! They may have lost Ighodaro and Kolek, but this is still a team to with A LOT of talent. Kam Jones is a stud!

I thought it was pretty obvious after watching their game this weekend at Maryland. Maryland is no joke, they are a very underrated team with one of the top freshman in the country. That's saying something because this is the best freshman class since at least 2018. Marquette went into their building and took care of business.

Meanwhile, everyone was salivating over Purdue because of tghe win vs Alabama, but that was at home with a very loud crowd and Bama couldn't him a shot to save their lives. And it wasn;t like they were missing because of Purdue's defense, they were missing wide open looks all game. I knew Marquette was going to have little difficulty taking care of Purdue last night. Picked them for 4 points, wish I had them even higher.

I'm now 0-2 picking Purdue (picked Bama to beat us). Hopefully that's the last time @dukedevilz puts Purdue in the pick 6.

You know you'll see them again! Heck, Purdue has Texas A&M and Auburn next month. Very likely I'll include one of those games.

Don't have any issues with anything you said here. Bama's 3-point shooting isn't going to be as sharp as last year. Sears and Wrightsell are elite. But, Stevenson and Nelson? Nah, let them shoot all day. Take your chances. Losing Griffen was a huge loss for them. Bama should look a little different once Chris Youngblood comes back, though.

I really like this Maryland team. I had them in my preseason top 50 and I think they have a great shot at making the tournament. So yes, Marquette winning in a hostile arena like that in the second week of the season is very, very impressive.

you seen Queen play? He's legit and has a big personality. Kinda reminds me of a young and more talented (forgot the big guy's name who led NC state on the deep run).

Bama has been very unimpressive thus far. Single digit wins against Arkansas State and McNeese followed by the loss to Purdue. Might have a battle on their hands tonight against Illinois.
