Caribbean Hen is going for 2021 pick em sweep

seems like all I would have to do is pick the MVFC team to win

problem is I picked Sam Houston State # 1 in my poll the entire year after seeing
them play in week 1 and got laughed at for it, Not the kind of laughs the humor champ
signed up for AGS to get xdrunkyx

Credit where credit is due: you have been on SH all season. Mad respect.

I do appreciate that DT, This should be a great Championship game

South Dakota State will be a slight favorite I think

[bonarae]

SHSU if crowds are to be judged?

But since on-field performance matters more, I'd go with the Jacks. xpeacex

[OhioHen]

SDSU - having watched the thorough beat down the Jacks put on the Hens yesterday, I don't see any way the Bearkats hold up.

hate to say it, but South Dakota State has had an easy road to the Championship game

Sammy has taken down out North Dakota State and JMU.... No reason they won't beat South Dakota State

[JacksFan40]

South Dakota State

If I didn’t try and pick VMI to upset JMU in round one I’d be tied for first, oh well.

[Laker]

This game is a true toss-up.

The only tossup with this game is "Will SDSU get to 50?"

Bro, you have been so incredibly wrong both of the last two SH games, not sure why anyone would heed anything you put out. You called for a rout in both of their last games, my guess is, wrong again for the the little Banty Rooster...

[caribbeanhen]

This game is a true toss-up.

I totally agree with you on this KPSUL

And thank goodness we don't have to wait three weeks to see it

[Paladin1aa]

SDSU - don’t think this will be close. Major choke job by JMU . Otherwise Sam would be home watching. Bunnies by 14.

[SonuvaHenx2]

SDSU 40-0

SDSU
SHSU

In fact, I'm 2-1 on Sam Houston State playoff picks with my blemish being picking a team that's won 8 of the last 9 titles. Sue me.

But keep on digging your hole to hide in for the off-season after you guys get trashed.

Nothing to hide from when your team is unbeaten and knocked off two powerhouses. If they lose on Sunday still a spectacular season and a great group of young men with buckets of heart. Sue me.

Yeah true. Sam Houston has had a helluva season for sure. I wouldn't mind trading places so I could get my hands on a nice runner-up shirt next week.

Your right, I guess that’s better than a elite 8 shirt that JSU will have to produce. All too typical for their exit time. At least we are used to not getting knocked out till the semis or natty....

That sounds like something Grass would push for.

Maybe it would have cut-off sleeves to up the 'blue-collar' factor.

[Libertine]

Sam

That DL is just terrifying

[caribbeanhen]

elite eight?

The only T shirt they will be producing in Jacksonville will be

I Eight at Shoney’s :D

I'm not sure Sammy should be throwing "shirt" shade at anybody.

The only choke job by JMU was the choke holds the Kats #12 and #3 dropped on their ass.

SDSU……if I am on the correct power pickem thread.

[Mfergy4]

Pulling for the Jack Rabbits!! Gotta keep the Trophy in the MVFC!!!

[ST_Lawson]

Two great teams. Should be an exciting game, but I'm going with the Jackrabbits by a FG.

[caribbeanhen]

Sammy beat North Dakota State nine days ago but it was really South Dakota State

If they beat South Dakota State in the championship game they will have to play well enough to beat North Dakota State

[BEAR]

Man while I want SHSU to win it in this shortened season that doesn't feature all the teams....I just think it will be a tough win for the Kats without their offense waking the FRICK up earlier. That simple fact can eventually bite you....will it be in this game? Who knows...but if the rabbits can play disciplined ball and be patient then they can hold on to win it. JMU got sloppy and GAVE the kats some scores with that sideline INT (heck of a circus catch by the D though) , run backs on kicks, and kickoff flub. Talk about a collapse! D was pretty good too...but you could see JMU recompose themselves after that little stint.
Sorry Kats...if they don't collapse, the rabbits take home the trophy.

You come get you some stripes this fall! :D (J/K....I saw our updated roster...FULL of freshman. Likely a good game this year. Gonna miss the SLC like I miss the GSC. )

I'm glad we are getting to play you one more time. Seriously going to miss the good rivalries we have had with you guys and the LA schools. I'm especially going to miss that Lake Charles seafood. I seriously wish UCA all the best in the ASUN and I hope the Southland reconstitutes itself into an even better conference than before the Texas 4 left.

If Sam Houston didn’t have one of the most dynamic punt returners in college football there would’ve been no collapse

so I don’t really see it as a collapse

JMU got beat and out talented

Yeah. That punt return wasn't on JMU. In case people haven't noticed, Ezzard has been making opponents look silly all season. He averaged over 30 yards a catch.

DT, I don’t think a lot of people have noticed

Many on here should do more game watching and less posting

[SUPharmacist]

I am going to go SDSU. Looks like a great game and neither team would surprise me.

I'm pulling for Sam Houston, but my gut says SDSU.

Good luck this weekend, I hope SHSU comes out on top.

He has been on the Bearkats all season. He saw them as championship material before anybody else. Glad you recognize that.

As long as Schmid takes his meds, Sammy wins

Looking forward to a great game

It took me a minute to figure out how this score would be possible but...it could happen. xthumbsupx

If you went to OT at 3-3 wouldn't the safety end the game? I don't remember the rule. I suppose if the other team kicked their FG first it could happen.

Oh I’m aware. He’s on about his 17th victory lap right now. Just busting his chops a little.

[CenMEBlackBearFan]

Sammy 45-42.

[caribbeanhen]

Oh I’m aware. He’s on about his 17th victory lap right now. Just busting his chops a little.

There is not enough checkered flags in the state of Indiana or Daytona Beach or Dover Downs to Homestead for all the victory laps I’m going to be taking if I win this thing

Hotties and a cold glass of milk too

You had no other choice

[KPSUL]

You had no other choice

I get what you say, but I am so undecided about which team will win, and which team I want to win this game, I really didn't care whether I had to take SHSU or SDSU.

I hope it will be a competitive, well played game - that's what is best for FCS football in general.

indeed, feel the same way

I would love to see some more regular season games like this one, although it doesn’t get any better as this one is for all the marbles

Also my only two picking losses were against SHSU, why not go for three?
