Crystal Helmet, Week 15
Posted by Jerry Brewer
College picks
California 38, Washington 13
Why: It's not so much a game as it is a goodbye. Or rather, a tossing overboard. Tyrone Willingham is off the ship after this one, and Steve Sarkisian has already been tagged his replacement. At least the hope for a better day will obstruct the humiliation of going 0-12.
Florida 27, Alabama 21
Oklahoma 49, Missouri 35
USC 45, UCLA 17
Arizona State 37, Arizona 35
NFL picks
New England 24, Seahawks 3
Why: The injuries just won't stop, but the schedule continues. The Seahawks display their worst offensive showing of the season -- which is saying something -- and the Patriots win a game in which they're never threatened.
Dallas 24, Pittsburgh 19
Baltimore 21, Washington 17
Miami 24, Buffalo 13
New York Giants 21, Philadelphia 20
Last week's record: 8-2
Season to date: 96-44 (68.7 percent)
