Hiiiiiiiiii, I’m Meackie!!!!!! My daddy asked me to give picks for this week’s MEAC games. Using the wisdom I got from my daddy, I picked the winners of all the games. GO MEAC!!!!

MEAC

Morgan State vs. Bowie State:

My daddy says that Morgan doesn’t have a defense, but they do have pride, unlike A&T and Norfolk. My daddy also says Bowie State doesn’t have a stadium, but they do have a Lego set that people can sit on and watch games. Morgan has just enough pride to squeak by Bowie State in a close one.

Hampton vs. Howard:

My daddy says that it’s best to say nothing at all when someone asks you a question. My daddy says that’s how he got all his jobs. So I’m picking the real HU to win this one. OK, I guess I really have to pick one, so I’m going with my birthplace: Hampton Hampton and some more Hampton.

Winston-Salem State at SC State:

SC State fired my daddy. But I’m not so stupid that I’d pick tar and nicotine over barbecue and geechee. SC State lights Menthol Salem.

Delaware State vs. Millersville:

My daddy says that he lost his virginity to a coke can in Dover. Delaware State by a td and missed extra point.

Arkansas-Pine Bluff at Bethune-Cookman College:

My daddy says the SWAC is the best conference in the world. My daddy also says that he can’t believe that little church school is so good. My daddy says that even though the SWAC is the best conference in the world, you can’t really expect to beat the Good Lord. BCC by 14.

FAMU vs. South Florida:

My daddy’s mad at FAMU for leaving. He also said that until they do right by him ain’t nothing good gonna happen to them. He also said FAMU told Harpo to beat him. I don’t know what that means, but I think it means South Florida is going to beat FAMU into involuntary servitude.

NC A&T vs. Norfolk State:

My daddy says that both teams suck, but A&T sucks less. My daddy also says that Norfolk has a new coach, and his ice is colder. Since ice is good in Crown Royal, Norfolk State shocks the world.

SWAC:

Prairie View vs. Paul Quinn:

My daddy says the SWAC is the greatest football conference ever. There is no way one lone man named Paul Quinn can beat a representative of the SWAC. Prairie View by the same type of score they used to lose by.

SIAC:

Fort Valley vs. Lane:

My daddy says if Savannah State continues to suck then we’ll have to look elsewhere for an addition to the MEAC. My daddy says the best bet is probably Fort Valley or Albany. Since Albany isn’t one of the schools in this paragraph I’ll have to go with Fort Valley.

CIAA:

Fayetteville State vs. Elizabeth City State:

My daddy says that Fayetteville State will make a great addition to the MEAC one day if we have to expand again. My daddy also says that Elizabeth City State had a winning season once but Fayetteville State has had several in a row. Fayetteville State by 30 or so.

Independents:

Savannah State vs. Elon:

See above comment under NC A&T vs. Norfolk about a certain man’s ice being colder. Elon by 9.
