Well, the first few games of the college football season are under our
belts.  We are not going to re-post George's "Top 20 or so" list for this
week since there will few changes and not enough games.  FSU and Air Force
moved up some places due to their huge wins over their opponents.

Here are George's picks for this weekend's pigskin action:

California at Washington State               Washington State by 6
Colorado State at Colorado                   Colorado by 8
Florida at Miami                             Florida by 3
Florida State at Nebraska                    ** EVEN **
Louisville at West Virginia                  West Virginia by 6
Mississippi at Memphis State                 Memphis State by 4
New Mexico at Texas Tech                     Texas Tech by 6
Northwestern at Duke                         Duke by 5
Oklahoma State at Washington                 Washington by 5
Penn State at Maryland                       Maryland by 10
Temple at Boston College                     Boston College by 4
UCLA at Brigham Young                        Brigham Young by 6
North Carolina at Navy                       Navy by 3
Southern Cal at Illinois                     Illinois by 5
Texas-El Paso at Southern Methodist          Southern Methodist by 24
Wyoming at Baylor                            Baylor by 8

Because of the way we pick the games we count a correct pick for George
if he comes close to the actual outcome by 0 to 4 points.  Other counts
are for 5-9 pts, 10-14 pts, 15-19 pts, and 20 on up.  Out of 7 games that
George predicted last week, here is the breakdown:

    Points      0-4    5-9    10-14   15-19  20-up  Total
    # Games      1      3       1       0      2      7

That gives him the same numbers for the year also.  We will include this
breakdown in our weekly top-20 and predictions also.

We hope you enjoy gleaming over these prognostications almost as much as
we enjoy doing them.  If you have any questions or comments, please feel
to drop us a note.  Have a good week and we hope your teams win (just as
long as your team is not Georgia).
