Guess Who's Back!

Me. I am back. Did you guess it correctly? I hope so... kinda easy. Just a slaughtering with a 5 for 5 correct predictions to get back on track. I will admit I was kinda nervous that I was losing my touch, but turns out I am still the King Midas of the UMAC. I could probably even tell you was going to win all of the elections tomorrow, but since a lot of politicians advertise with me I think it's in my best interest to keep those to myself. Kind of a snoresville games this week with any games that matter being complete blow-outs, but I gotta recap them anyways.

Northwestern vs MacMurray

Let's be real here for a second. We all knew this was going to be a blow-out. Northwestern had found themselves out of the first place hunt and just needed a team to take their aggression out on. I don't really know what else to say about this game. Northwestern>MacMurray can sum it up pretty good.

IWC vs Eureka

Hey! I got you right on this one IWC! Thanks for the help on the blog for once. I'm still a little surprised though at how close of a game this was. Top teams in the UMAC are winning by 40+ against Eureka and you only pull of an eight point victory. You've got to understand at least a little bit of my skepticism on whether or not you've made it in the top half. Still you had to go to Eureka and win on the road so I'm not trying to take away the W from you or anything. I just think with that Coach Park defensive mentality you should be able to hold teams to less points than 28, especially Eureka this year.

Scholastica vs Morris

Hahaha, Sorry I had to laugh a little bit at myself when I even thought for a second Morris would pull a miracle close game here. I actually thought from what I was told that Morris had a solid defense. I think that person may have lied to me as Scholastica put up 40 on the Robinson show. I'm really impressed with this guy and I think if the Scholastica lifting program does anything for him that he could be a Monster next year. (more than he already is) I am interested to see the Gas get back more into the mix if he can and start up that 1-2 punch. (pick who the 1 is and the 2 is. Doesn't matter)

Crown vs Martin Luther

Hey Crown! Glad to see that you didn't make this a close one in the end. Martin Luther having a rough season here and Crown came in and finished their hopes of another win. Crown will at least be able to hang their heads a little higher after some late season wins when we wondered if they would even get one.

Greenville vs Westminster

This game was a big big bummer. I really thought this one would be a game that would be worth watching and maybe would come down to the end. Greenville looks scary good with a big win over a team like Westminster. Greenville has played some solid teams the past few games and I think it's prepared them for a tough battle coming


To sum up this whole post in a few seconds. I was 5 for 5 this week and I'm so already ready for next weeks game so I barely tried here.

SCARY PREDICTIONS

No Halloween theme intended here with the picture. My last blog post hit an all time low of views (still a lot) so I think I lost all those band-wagoners and I'm back to the true followers. That means I can just get back to the basics of solid picks. Lots of tough match-ups this week and I might need some lucky guesses to get me through this one. I also know that a lot of you players won't be able to go out anywhere fun for Halloween because you'll be traveling... I've got my old Scholastica Jersey sitting in my room if anyone out there wants to go as a winner for Halloween. Speaking of that... let's make these prediction Halloween costumed themed. This is how it works... I'll pick a costume that I think fits each team the best in the match-up. Btw yes I realize some might be offended, and if you're religiously against Halloween you might want to sit out this blog post.

So our first Match-up is going to be MacMurray @ Northwestern
First off I picked the roller-coaster costume for Northwestern because of the kinda obvious roller coaster season they had. They seemed to have a solid shot at first and now they've got two losses and looking at possibly at not even taking second or third in the UMAC this year. The MacMurray costume if you got the reference remind me to send you a dollar in the mail. That of course is the costume from the movie "Running Man" with Arnold  where he has to kill a bunch of people in a game show that is meant for convicts to get killed. Just google that movie and watch it. The face put on it of course is the great Patrick Hall. This guy has some skills and is the staple of the teams rush game. Unlike Arnold did in the movie tho... MacMurray wont be winning this game. Nortwestern might have had a few bad games this year, but not enough to lose this one. Expect a blow-out game here.

Final Score
Northwestern 44 MacMurray 14


Next matchup I've got Greenville @ Westminster! Greenville is rocking the bridesmaid costume (maid of honor to be exact) because they always seem to be top dog but find themselves as the bridesmaid and never the bride, but could this be the year they put on the brides dress!? We will see! Westminster I've got as Pepto-Bismol because... They good for an upset!! (Insert rimshot) big upset last week, but I don't think it'll happen this week.

Final Score
Greenville 44 Westminster 28


Now I've got IWC vs Eureka! IWC I got as the Rubix cube because nobody knows exactly how good/bad they are. They're confusing the heck out of me! Eureka I picked Captain Planet because of the song "Captain planet he's a hero, Scholastica held their team to zero" but hey you're still a super hero and maybe you can "recycle" IWC this week!

Final Score
IWC 32 Eureka 18


Morris vs Scholastica!
I've got Morris as Mr. Potato head because they can be solid, but a lot of the time they're missing pieces or they've lost them. I picked Scholastca as Rocky because they're the champ of days past fighting for the chance to be the Champ again!

Final Score
CSS 40 Morris 14

There you go folks! I actually spent hours on this and then Google sandbagged me and deleted it all and I mailed it in the 2nd time... Enjoy and stuff
