What can I say? Another beating at the hands of the underdogs. Obviously, I (like many prognosticators) fell in love with the favorites after the early season domination. Now we see what happens eventually every year: parity strikes in the pros and college powers start to wear down or take weeks off against weak teams. As an example, the NFL's last 3 winless teams (Titans, Bucs, Rams) have gone 5-4 the last 3 weeks while the previously unbeaten Broncos and 5-1 Giants have each dropped 3 in a row. Parity strikes. Even the top-tier Saints and Colts have not covered each of the last 2 weeks.
I'm particularly upset with my first losing week in locks. Cincy screwed me and set the tone for the entire weekend by going to the prevent and letting WV get a late, meaningless touchdown. I completely whiffed on Denver.
p.s. - Remind me NEVER to pick the Aggies again. What a bunch of losers.
