Dude, what happen 30 years ago is irrelevant. The beauty of sports is trying to predict what will happen based on match ups, stats, recent trends, home or away, injuries etc. I don't care if you tell me the week of but I'd love to hear your prediction of who will trip up the ducks. Not a blanket statement of "it could happen". You've heard my pick of potential upseter, what's yours?
I am not a "PREDICTOR"....... AS A reformed gambler , I know one thing ,,predicting anything beyond trends is FUTILE, , you even missed my ENTIRE POINT OF THAT POST , the post wasn't about USC OR ASU, IT WAS ABOUT ,"the only sure thing in college football is the uncertainty", we go A COUPLE YEARS with BAMA and OREGON ON TOP .... and you forget CLEMSON's NATIONAL TITLE, OR BYU's,,, I'LL BET you, being the frontrunner type ,you didn't see those coming,, and I am NOT SLAMMIN' you for being a frontrunner , its the nature of fans in general ...keep predicting,,, and keep accurate score ,,, against the VEGAS lines ...you know who wins ..the BOOK,,, that's a FOR SURE,, AS FAR AS MY pick's IT' S way to early to make outlandish predictions , although I
DID PICK ASU over WISCONSIN,not a mighty feat , I FOR ONE try to avoid slingin' mud against the wall and hope something sticks

HERE is a PERFECT example of you really don't know.... MANTEI TEO,,, If the "fake girlfriend"scandal happens MID-SEASON ...the MIGHTY IRISH go 9-3 AND don't get ANYWHERE NEAR the title game,,,that is how fragile college age ego's are,,so just hope MARRIOTTA doesn't have a meltdown,or injury AND YOU HAVE A GOOD SHOT,,, IF YOU REALLY WANT A "PREDIDTION , HERE GOES ;IF THE DON'T GET CAUGHT UP IN ALL THE RAH-RAH HAPPY HORSE MANURE FAN-MEDIA PREDICTIONS,,,and avoid major injury,,, AND THEY GET BY STANFORD AND UCLA ,,,THEY WILL GET THEIR SHOT
