Chucky Buckles Week 3 Game Picks

Overall, that’s about 83% or a solid B- if he were back in school.   MICHIGAN CENTER @ GRASS LAKE: In an act seldom seen at the high school level, the entire Cardinals team parachutes into the stadium before the game to avoid the traffic congestion for what should be the area’s premier regular season matchup. Center’s flare for the big play – especially on offense – gives them the edge. Drum roll please… PICK: MICHIGAN CENTER WESTERN @ LUMEN CHRISTI: Panther bus gets turned around and hopelessly lost on the new service road on their campus, causing fans to worry.

It’s a great fit for me.
