WEEK 16 FOOTBALL PICKS

Lets look at some of the highlights from Week 15 of the football season. In High School, we crowned 2010 State Champions, as Byrnes and Northwestern won in 4A Division 1 and Division 2. Myrtle Beach won in 3A and Pageland-Central won in 2A. In College, Virginia Tech won the ACC Championship, Auburn pounded South Carolina, to win the SEC Championship and Oklahoma rallied to win the Big 12 Championship over Nebraska. In the NFL, the Carolina Panthers blew a 14 to 0 lead and lost 31 to 14 to the Seattle Seahawks.

*****The ArmChair Coach Game Ball Of The Week goes to all of the State Champions crowned last week at the Weekend Of Champions, Byrnes, Northwestern, Myrtle Beach and Pageland-Central*****

The ArmChair Coach went 6 and 4 in football picks last week. My record for the season is 118 and 32 for a percentage of .787. Lets look at this weeks picks.

COLLEGE GAMES

Army vs Navy..... This is one of the best rivalries in College Football. Navy has been pretty dominate in this game in recent years and they will win it again..... Navy 27 Army 20

FCS Quarterfinals

Georgia Southern @ Wofford..... The Terriers won a close one at Georgia Southern earlier this season. The Eagles have really come on strong late in the season. This will be another close one..... Georgia Southern 23 Wofford 21

Villanova @ Appalachian State..... This has a chance to be a heck of a game. The crowd will be large and vocal in Boone, North Carolina for this one. It will make a difference..... Appalachian State 20 Villanova 16

New Hampshire @ Deleware..... The fans in Deleware love their Blue Hens. It will be a tough environment for New Hampshire to win in..... Deleware 26 New Hampshire 19

North Dakota State @ Eastern Washington..... We have yet another interesting game. It should be close and I believe the home team will get the win..... Eastern Washington 20 North Dakota State 14

NFL GAMES

Atlanta @ Carolina..... The Falcons are playing for possible home field advantage in the NFC Playoffs and the Panthers are playing for the Number 1 over-all pick in the 2011 NFL draft. You know where this game is heading..... Atlanta 28 Carolina 16

Miami @ New York Jets..... The Dolphins lost to the lowly Browns last week and they need a win. The Jets were embarrassed by the Patriots last week and they are mad..... New York Jets 23 Miami 16

Green Bay @ Detroit..... The Packers need this game to keep pace with the Bears in the NFC North. The Lions are 2 and 10, but they play everyone tough..... Green Bay 24 Detroit 20

Philadelphia @ Dallas..... The Eagles are trying to win the NFC East and a win in Dallas would be huge. The Cowboys have looked like a new team since the coaching change. I smell upset..... Dallas 27 Philadelphia 24

New England @ Chicago..... This battle between the leader of the AFC East and the NFC North goes to..... New England 23 Chicago 21

Until Next Time.
