OK, Smarty...how did those picks go?

 So, before the season starts every year I take a shot at predicting every game on our schedule.  Then, for humility and penance, I go back when the season is over and study them.  However, THIS YEAR, my friends, there is no humility to be found, merely a double fist pump.

I usually get them about half right....Anyway, this year I got 22 right and only 6 wrong!  Are you kidding me?  I'm not sure what that means--perhaps that our team was not very predictable, but I'm still fist pumping.  I called four wins that we eventually lost (@OU, @ BSU, @Detroit, CMU) , and 2 losses that we eventually won (@Kent and @Canisius).  Note that I had the home ones in pretty good shape, but less luck on our road performance.

HA!  Now, let me go look in on my bracket.
