Mr. November Brings His A Game – JV NFL Open Thread

Holy shit, kids.  This slate is amazeballs.  To the point where I can’t even say anything smart-ass, just want to play badass band of our times The National’s epic John Kerry song:

Nebraska at Ohio State (Noon, Fox)

This is on national Fox…why?  This will feature some epic tOSU vengeance, for Redshirt’s viewing pleasure.  I am watching to scout the QB, and to collect my first #HAILGAMBLOR of the day (bet this at -17, now up to -19).

Texas A&M at Auburn (Noon, ESPN)

Battle between the two SEC West sides I simply can’t get any sort of read on.  Profiles as a defensive struggle, so my early bet for 45-42 bananacakes action.

Michigan State at Maryland (Noon, ESPN)

Sparty only favoured by 3, this is taking candy from a baby.  But who would eat turtle-flavoured candy?  Ewwwwwwwww.

Georgia at Kentucky (3:30, CBS)

Perhaps the most interesting match of the afternoon, personally.  This could go two ways – Jawja could just rip UK a new one, shaking off its offensive doldrums…or Kenfucky could control the clock with its run game and defense, and pull things out of their ass in Q4 once again.  Either way, I like to see epic atmosphere in places not used to same.

Florida State at NC State (3:30, ABC)

Did you see anything the last two weeks to indicate that my shitty wolves should be 9-point favourites against anybody right now, even a dysfunctional Noles squadron like this?  They still have enough talent to at least keep it close, so $50 on the opposition it is.

West By God Virginia at Texas (3:30, Fox)

There Will Be Points.  Had UT won last week, I would have bet the fuckers du cousins here, but in present circumstances I shall just be an interested spectator.  Grier is another QB I am scouting for Donks WOO!!

Paedo State at Michigan (3:45, ESPN)

On a normal JV day, this would be high on the watch list, not the #4 option of the viewing window.  At least one of these shitsuckers has to lose, eh?

Duke at Miami (7:00, ESPN2)

I have the Devils ATS (+9.5) and ML (+300).  Da U is hot garbage, kiddies.  Duke has lost 3 ACC matches, but most in heartbreak-y fashion.  This is the kind of opponent they beat under Cutcliffe.

Alabama at LSU (8:00, CBS)

Here’s your moneymaker, and the way we can get at least ONE of Notre Dame or the B1G champion out of the playoffs – LSU wins out.  1-loss Bama gets in again, after all, they won the title last year that way.  LSU gets in as the SEC champ and #1/2 seed.  And the Bayou Bengals have the defense to have a puncher’s chance under the Death Valley lights, though I only bet the absurd 14.5-point spread.  Bonus is this is always the most violent fixture of the JV slate, so is great for satisfying one’s ever-present blood lust.

Oklahoma at Texas Tech (8:00, ABC)

Just in case, ABC is also showing the Northern Steer Fucker Alliance, perhaps blowing their annual chance at sneaking into the playoffs v. Guns Up!!  Plausibly interesting match, in any event.

Stanford at Washington (9:00, PAC-12)

Wow, this got relegated all the way down to conference network only?  Maybe lacks the sizzle it did 3-4 weeks ago, but still a pretty solid matchup.  And the Trees will cover +10, easy.  These are roughly equal sides, in my view.

Cal at Washington State (10:45, ESPN)

But NAY!  That last one ain’t even your tweaker match, as we have an excellent one on the Paloose.  Wazzu has struggled into the Top 10 this week, just as they did last season ahead of playing the Bears…when they lost 37-3 in Berkeley.  One expects revenge is on their minds, but the Cougs also just used up quite a bit of emotional energy v. the Quackers.  Really looking forward to this.

Sam Bradford will be thr next qb of the Bills and make more fucking money.

Senor Weaselo

And then he will get hurt for the Peter Man. THE PETER MAN IS ETERNAL.

JustStopDude

Wait…how the fuck is Fresno State ranked? Like two seasons ago, they only had a single win…when the fuck did this happen?!?!

theeWeeBabySeamus

I’m starting to be happy that I passed on betting FSU ATS or ML.
Geez they fucking suck.

(tWBS’s moneh safely in he pocket)

theeWeeBabySeamus

I need to call my friend’s wife tonight.

Ok wait, that sounded wrong.

She’s an FSU alum and we talk shit pre and post games. I don’t answer the phone when we lose.

Young Boys 3 Grasshopper 0. Our Young Boys keep pounding anything in front of them.

Spanky Datass

Making the horns down hand sign in Austin is an unsportsman like conduct penalty? Fuckin’ fuckity fuck.

WCS

And then ejecting our best o-lineman for an extra shove. #Big12Refs

ballsofsteelandfury

This is very strange watching another team dominate possession against Barça.

herodotus450

I think LilJordan Humphrey might officially be hte new Equinameous St. James.

WCS

One of the Texas defensive guys just suffered a compound fracture of his right arm. That was ugly.

theeWeeBabySeamus

See Reggie run.
RUN REGGIE RUN!!!!!

theeWeeBabySeamus

You’re gonna have to be moar specific.

theeWeeBabySeamus

They’re worse than I thought.
Jimbo got out just in time.

theeWeeBabySeamus

But we’re not much better.
This could go either way.

WCS

Saban has the titles and recruits, but, Jimbo might be the smartest coach in JV foobawl. Dude knew things were about to go all sploody in Tallahassee, and got all the monies on the way out the door.

Horatio Cornblower

If you’re Nebraska, 2-6 and going nowhere, and you have a chance to stick it to #10 tOSU, how are you kicking a FG there?

scotchnaut

Newb Braska trying to recall the 80’s.

JustStopDude

I still don’t get how good their season has gone. I guess the key is to just straight up murder a kid for team building….

JustStopDude

Fuck I love fall. Its gorgeous outside. The trees are changing color…a decent game in on the TV…all i need is a damn beer.

JustStopDude

Oh and I get an extra hour of sleep tonight!!!

ballsofsteelandfury

That’s the best part.

...

I’m still miffed it was taken from me in the spring and returned without interest!

ballsofsteelandfury

Boys, I’m restoring balance to the universe. One pornhub video at a time.

One down today.

Horatio Cornblower

We had no kids in the house last night, so my wife and I had sex like porn stars.

I made weird faces and took forever to finish and she faked her orgasms.

ballsofsteelandfury

The DFO way!

scotchnaut

Not gonna lie-Sillycuse not sucking football-wise is kinda interesting.

/basketball-wise they gon surprise this year
//take note, Hippo-there’s some easy money to be made early in the season

Viva La Tabula Raza

Walter White drove Chrysler products when his meth business took off, wonder what made him change to the Ford brand.

Senor Weaselo

They don’t make the Aztek like they used to. Or anymore. Thank goodness on that, but RIP in peace Pontiac.

Redshirt

This…this isn’t Ohio State football.

Downfield Matriculator

Lack of a a running game is sad enough, but the frickin’ men of Schiano may have even more work to do . . . I find myself understanding the anger of the Volunteer fan base!

Horatio Cornblower

Downfield: Browns or Bengals? I think we have one of each, so you could conceivably break the tie and allow one of those teams to actually win something.

Downfield Matriculator

Back from Dad duties and will also admit to Steeler fan (but since Terry Hanratty/Joe Gilliam so just before the bandwagon . . . really!)

scotchnaut

Downfield, where you from?

Downfield Matriculator

Grew up in Akron and Toledo, watched Archie win Heismans and maintained fanhood through the Cooper years. Avoided rooting for the hapless Browns because I thought Terry Hanratty was the cure to all ills in Pittsburgh (I was off by one Terry).

Now I live in the SF Bay Area and am watching tOSU on my phone at my kid’s sailing regatta and happy the bar at the yacht club opens in 40 mins!

scotchnaut

Welcome aboard, sailor!

Downfield Matriculator

Longtime lurker here and at KSK before — usually too damn busy/technologically inept to post, but trying to branch out . . . in other words, F$%k it, I’m going deep!

Redshirt

one of us. one of us. one of us.

Horatio Cornblower

The yacht club!?

Oh fuck; somebody go and get the good clubhouse linens. You know, the ones that only have food stains on them.

GET YOUR FOOT OFF THE BOAT, SPALDING!!!!!!!

Downfield Matriculator

If Hippo needs some more action, $50 says the Smails kid picks his nose.

Redshirt

If Ohio State doesn’t start running the ball more, Zombie Woody Hayes may march into Ohio Stadium looking for blood.

scotchnaut

Update: Sillycuse still crushing Tim Duncan U 21-10.

Horatio Cornblower

/bursts out of locker
//whips half-eaten sandwich at Scotchy

WHY DIDN’T ANYONE TELL ME THERE WAS A NEW THREAD!!???

theeWeeBabySeamus

//whips half-eaten sandwich at Scotchy

/looks at half-eaten sandwich on floor
//looks at Scotchy

Ummmmmm….you gonna eat that?
Asking foar a friend.

Downfield Matriculator

tOSU dogshit uniforms working to prevent proper vengeance. The crap running game (or lack of letting 5-star running backs run as part of the daft game plan) will be problematic against the Fightin’ Harbaughs. Woody is spinning about in his grave (looking for Clemson players to punch, one supposes).

Horatio Cornblower

Reference, shmeference, I’m just glad the old bastard’s dead.

scotchnaut

smh. He was a gentle lover and a great tipper.

Downfield Matriculator

I’ll out myself as a Buckeye fan of longstanding (just before Archie Griffin) and even I cannot defend punching a player . . . . Dabo Swinney OTOH needs a right cross to his blasphemous yap.

scotchnaut

This guy I like.

theeWeeBabySeamus

aTm/Aubie looks interesting.
I got no juice on it, but it’s a good game so far.

scotchnaut

I got no juice on it

Thank gawd. And you’re the one always going on about ‘phrasing’….

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hehehehe…well played.

theeWeeBabySeamus

If UGa loses to UK, I might finally go on that murder spree I’ve been threatening for a few weeks now, btw.

scotchnaut

“Black dude by the name of Schwartz playing for us? No doubt he’s going to steal a high finance job from us!”

-Auburn/MAGA fans

Horatio Cornblower

Probably still pissed ’bout the white redneck what poisoned them oaks.

scotchnaut

With you on the Georgia/Kentucky thingy. No idea how this is going to shake out.

scotchnaut

Absolutely. That particular circumstance just doesn’t happen on a regular basis.

Redshirt

It should be added “…to the referee’s determination that the action by the defender wasn’t a football action but an action directly upon the opposing player’s head.”

theeWeeBabySeamus

@Hippo, we’re still #21 in the CFB Playoff Rankings.

I mean holy shit, how are these people who vote on this stuff THAT fucking stupid?

Imma put a half a grand on the ‘Noles to cover, methinks. No, I am not joking.

theeWeeBabySeamus

/checks ‘Nole’s ML

Hmmmmmm…..

theeWeeBabySeamus

‘Noles +265 right now….That might be worth the risk of a Benjamin.

yeah right

Hippo convinced me too.

theeWeeBabySeamus

He smrt when it comes to the betting.

scotchnaut

Cuse beating the hell out of Wake Forest, 14-10!

Redshirt

Nebraska attempted an surprise onside kick. However the kicker suddenly forgot how to kick.

scotchnaut

“The power of Blair Walsh compels you!”

-voice inside the head of Nebraska kicker

Senor Weaselo

Charlie Brown approved!

Wakezilla

BREAKING NEWS: Toronto Argos have fired Marc Trestman. After winning the Grey Cup in his first season, Trestman led the Argos to a 4-14 record and missed the playoffs.

This was not a decision by Jim Popp and very well will likely bite the Argos in the ass.

Farewell, Marc
