Since I joined this site, I have had a tendency to make bold predictions- some of which worked and some that bombed.
I'm sure you guys have also made similar predictions.
What are some of your hits and misses?
I'll start with a few of my best:
1. I said that Auburn, ranked 10th in the AP preseason poll, was ranked too high, was overrated, and would be brought down by a pathetic offense- they went 5-7, had a comically bad offense, and seemed to be going nowhere. I took sweet delight in seeing Alabama bitch-slap them 36-0.
2. I predicted that the Browns would upset the Giants on Monday Night Football
3. I said Texas Tech would beat Texas
4. I was the only guy outside of Arizona to pick the Cardinals over the Panthers
However, I also made some bad calls:
1. I said Colt McCoy was overrated- goes 12-1 and finished runner-up for the Heisman
2. I predicted Cleveland and Detroit to each go 11-5, win their division, and make the playoffs
3. I said the Cardinals would win in snowy Foxboro
4. I basically mocked Florida's defense and said they were overrated. As a guy who praised the Big 12 and ripped the SEC as slow and with nothing but popgun offenses... yikes!
Feel free to give your best/worst predictions and comment on some of my crazy predictions I made.
