JV NFL Preview – 10 October Saturday Openness

Whoa Nellie! Will we get some perfect 10 games today? The slate doesn’t look too freaking appetizing at first glance, but one never knows. Anyway, I fucking miss Keith Jackson. He was awesome.

Oklahoma vs. Texas (noon, ABC)

All the early games are complete shit. The one week I would LIKE my wolven sort to play this window, they end up playing Friday night in Blacksburg (which I like especially because it ticks off all the grumpy old white men who find high school football “sacred” – even though a reat many schools play on Thursday anyway now). This is the game to watch because it’s all sorts of fun to point and laugh at what’s become of Texas. It would be kinda sad if it weren’t, you know, fucking TEXAS.

Northwestern at Michigan (3:30, BTN)

With all these terrible games on the major networks, this is what slips down to BTN? Fucking really? Let’s hope the Wildcats make make it snow proud, and/or happy drunk. The Harbs fluffing is bad enough as it is.

Washington State at Oregon (6:00, Pac 12)

Loser of this game goes into complete and utter freefall. Games of this nature can make for very interesting television, especially when there is no defense to be played by either side. Yes, I’m reaching here.

Oklahoma State at West By God Virginia (7:00, ESPN2)

No rest for the wicked, cousinfuckers. Part 2 of the methhead two-step is at home, at least, and the Pokes really aren’t much of a team. Both of these squads are likely more entertaining than they are really good, but that likely makes for quality viewing.

Miami at Florida State (8:00, ABC)

Hey, another game that used to mean something! This week’s version of Florida/Tennessee. Miami has a good QB, and not that much else that impresses me. Florida State has an impressive defense and overall athleticism, but struggles mightily to move the ball, especially through the air.

Cal at Utah (10:00, ESPN)

Last but definitely not least, your DVR/tweaker special. Both teams are undefeated, and interesting in different ways. Team Secular Big Love is the “steady” team that has risen to the top of the heap thanks to the chaos all around it. The question remains whether they can find that 5th gear to make that Great Leap Forward into the playoffs, and to really compete for the title. Whereas the Bears are the fast advancing doormat riding the arm of a star QB, putative #1 draft pick Jared Goff. With the EPL on hold yet again due to stuid international play, you need this game for your Sunday morning NFL warmups.
