GAME 4: # 16 Ohio State Buckeyes (4-0) @ # 20 Michigan State Spartans (3-1) – Mr. Basketball of Michigan, J-Rich, is smiling because his Spartans will be the first to deal Urban renewal a loss this season. Spartans – 28, Buckeyes – 24.

What did we learn from our 5 games from this past weekend you ask?  1) Missouri may want to go back to the Big 12 after second straight SEC loss,  2) Michigan and Notre Dame are both pretty lousy, 3) Collin Klein is the toughest SOB in College Football, 4) FSU is officially back and bad-ass, 5) The Oregon Ducks may end the SEC run of National titles this year, 6) ALWAYS pick against my weekly upset special.

We also learned the winner of the Free Original Retro Brand Vintage -T this week is Dave Allison out of Ogden, Utah.  Of the 49 entries this week, Dave was one of 4 folks to run the table at 5- 0, and he was the lucky man to have his name drawn as the winner (Kudo's to Osamu Umemora, Evan Levine, and Kim Dekker for also running the table.)

Many of you know the simple rules to our contest, but if you are joining us for the first time, please take a quick minute to review...

1) Every week I will preview 5 College Football Match-ups for the upcoming weekend and offer my expertise, or more commonly lack thereof, as to who will win & why, along with a predicted final score.

2) Contestants will enter their picks for the same 5 games in the comment section at the end of this post, and the person that beats me and/or the person who picks the most games correctly (no point spreads, straight up wins and losses) will win a FREE Original Retro Brand t-shirt of their choice from originalretrobrand.com  In the event of a tie, we will have a drawing to determine the final winner.  In the rare event that I win, nobody gets nuthin’!  Comments must be posted no later than kickoff of the first scheduled game which is 9/29/12 @NOON EST to be counted!  ***ONLY ONE ENTRY PER CUSTOMER***

3) I will announce the winner on this blog and our Facebook page the following week – Usually Wednesday or Thursday – Then we’ll do it again.

Get ready to Rrrrummmmbbbbblllleeeeee....   Here are your 5 games for week #5 -

GAME 1: North Carolina State Wolfpack (3-1) @ Miami Hurricanes (3-1) - The "U' flip-flopped their way to a big win over Georgia Tech, while the Wolfpak put a whoopin' on the Citadel for their 3rd straight victory. I gotta pick the pak just because I know all of ya'll are going with the Canes at home. Wolfpak - 44, Hurricanes - 38.

GAME 2: Penn State Nittany Lions (2-2) @ Illinois Fighting Illini (2-2) - Let's call this game the Big-10 Boredom Bowl. Penn State is rollin' with back-to-back wins while Illinois is playing Jekyl & Hyde. I gotta go with the kid in the photo. He obviously knows how to pick 'em. Nittany Lions - 26, Fighting Illini - 21.

GAME 3: # 25 Baylor Bears (3-0) @ # 9 West Virginia Mountaineers - Baylor outlasted those pesky peeps from the Sunbelt ULM, but Heisman hopeful Geno Smith has the Mountain men 3rd in the nation in passing yds, and the Bear defense just ain't got enough to stop him. Mountaineers - 47, Bears - 35.

UPSET SPECAL: Wisconsin Badgers (3-1) @ # 22 Nebraska Cornhuskers (3-1) - This is the week I break through for my first upset special victory. Huskers used up all their scoring last week against Idaho State (73 pts). Obviously these Badger babes have clouded my sanity and so be it. Badgers - 28, Cornhuskers - 24.

My record stands at a very unimpressive 10-10 after 4 weeks in.  Gonna run the table this week.

Once again, I want to remind everybody about another way to win Retro Brand gear.  Every Friday morning around 8:30am est, I call in live on the nationally syndicated Lex & Terry show on Sirius/XM radio for football picks.  If you email your name, e-mail address & mailing address to: picks@lexandterry.com you have a chance to win a $200 Retro Brand gift card.  What have you got to lose?  Nuthin.  Now let's see your picks for this week and good luck!

Lex and Terry have been in the entertainment industry for years, and are HUGE sports fans, and especially love all things retro. With the Stanley Cup in full swing, we checked in to get their take on a few things:

Andy: Word on the street is that you and Lex have a deep seeded hatred for the Detroit Red Wings, favored to win the Stanley Cup. Please share your thoughts if you would -

Andy: I know you are a Pittsburgh Steelers fan. Is that random, or are you a Pittsburgh man across the board, I.E. Pirates, Pens?

Either: Being that your show is broadcast in Dallas, and being that you have Steve Ott of the Stars on regularly, are you a true Stars fan, or do you suck up in fear of being beaten severely?

**Andy can take sister joke in stride

Either: I don't recollect seeing the Stars donning ye olde Minnesota North Stars retro unis for any throwback games. Is this something you would like to see?

Either: I know each of you have purchased several Original Retro Brand shirts in the past. What is it about them you like so much?
