Well, I’d rather have it be noisy. The schedulers disagree. though.
Ballsy: Oh, the Colorado Derby will be quite noisy! The Colorado State coach started talking shit about Deion and then he clapped back and, well, I expect there to be a lot of extracurricular activities in this game. Hi! I’m back despite my anal sex joke from last week!
Tennessee (-6) at Florida (7:00, ESPN)
Orange abortion uniforms, everywhere. Florida Men have looked like warmed-over ass so far, but they’ll be up for a rivalry game in The Swamp.
Ballsy: I did not know that drinking mustard was a Tennessee thing. Apparently it is. T for Titties?
Original Recipe Big Love (+8) at Arkansas (7:30, ESPN2)
Here’s the second Moneyline itch of the day – Pig Sooey haven’t impressed, and not sure they will pass this first real test of the season.
Ballsy: My best friend’s wife went to Arkansas and suffers with them every football season. I would make fun of her, but she’s suffered enough.
Pitt (+2.5) at West By God Virginia (7:30, ABC)
I mean, at least these two sides/fanbases hate one another. Viva Hate!
Ballsy: If I’m correct, this is the Gumbygirl/WCS Derby. I could be wrong, though. I do know that WCS really cares about this game, though.
TCU (-7.5) at Houston (8:00, Fox)
This wet noodle is the first daily mention of “Big” Fox. Yeesh, what a slate. Should be some scoring here, at least. See how angry Sonny Dykes is about sparking the “SKO BUFFS” phenomenon.
Ballsy: I like Texas ladies. That accent slays me…
Colorado State (+24) at Colorado (10:00, ESPN)
Hippo is very, very tired of these Pro ‘Rasslin-style “feuds” each week’s coach stages (and yes, I do believe it is 100% staged/scripted) with Coach Prime. They’ll sleepwalk through this one, but if you’re awake…I guess it’s better than staring at the wall.
Ballsy: If you can do a parlay on the OVER and there being a bench-clearing brawl in this game, RUN DON’T WALK to the bookie and bet the kids’ college funds on it.
Apparently, they changed the rule…
“The team that won the first coin toss will pick for any even-numbered overtime periods, and the team that lost the coin toss will make the decision in every odd-numbered period.”
Is that Stevie Wonder?
I Wish
Coach Prime better hit that transfer portal HARD this weekend.
WHEN THE FUCK DID LINDA COHN GO BLONDE?
I asked nicely and she obliged.
It was easier than cleaning out her hair.
Just had the same thought.
Apparently I haven’t watched SportsCenter in a decade or two.
I didn’t realize that was her, until she started talking.
Do you believe now?
They fucking held off getting upset at home against a big underdog state rival in OT AND YOU’RE RUSHING THE FIELD?!
What fucking blind deaf ball washer is writing these nonsensical statements? Who are these dickheads just screaming this trash like Coach Prime is Rudy???
“Do you believe now?”
No. No I don’t. Stop it. Colorado has beaten three bad teams, two of them barely and one of those teams had to literally give them the game. They have no defense, their offensive line isn’t real, and their coaching staff can’t adjust to the most basic problems.
Other than that, though, they’re pretty good.
That was an egregious statement. This was supposed to be a blowout. Instead they won in overtime with the help of many penalties. Life comes at you fast Buffs. Be ready.
They will get their ass handed to them next week in Oregon.
From your lips to Cthulhu’s many ears. Or eyes. Limbs.
Look, the point is the guy’s got a lot going on, OK!?
Apparently I missed a thing? I was watching Poirot.
The ending of this game was more strained than anything Agatha Christie came up with.
I like Agatha Christie tripe!
It was Hallowe’en Party, the book the new movie is based on. Sort of. Loosely.Nobody is in Venice in the book, and no houses were haunted, just the usual polite English murder and mayhem in a country house.
boooooo
Do you believe now?!! Woohoo!!
Given that CU was 2-0 and a heavy home favorite….
I sure can, Fucking Lobotomized Announcer.
Coach Prime is the Man*
*who let a bunch of basically JC players take his purportedly ranked team to double over time
CSU wrapping up the season with 3 wins. Book it.
Do they play UConn? Because that’s one right there.
Um, how can that be blind side if he’s running STRAIGHT AT HIM??
Head’s on a swivel.
It wasn’t. It was a bad call. Pick was probably correct but the PI was for the Coach Prime narrative.
Since when is a block called a pick? The QB was running, wasn’t he?
QB was still behind the line of scrimmage though.
That’s some bullshit
That’s a piss poor call. The other 8 personal fouls were probably deserved
CSU Coach all smiles.
He got his excuse.
Nailed it.
BLEEERGH is a Ram tonight
BLEEEERGH!
Man, if the ref is going to pick you on a 2-pt conversion in OT there is no way you can let him be standing up after the play.
Feels like csu gonna fumble….
I’d like to see the majors this CU offense is taking.
Whatever those majors are they surely involve safety scissors and crayons.
CSU might wanna cover that tight end
They’re gonna run out of times they can throw to him.
Penetration in the backfield produces happy Balls
So…Colorado just goes first every time?
Good coachin!
Yeah, I thought they were supposed to switch…
Did the rule change?
“Chess match with Coach Prime…”
Me: HEY, STUPID, I’M DOING THE (PASS OVER THE MIDDLE) FOUR-MOVE CHESS CHECKMATE A 6-YEAR-OLD WOULD SEE COMING!!!
Coach Prime: I’ve got the receipts!
Me: Aaaaaaaannnnnnd that’s check mate. Also you’re not actually allowed to do jumps in chess.
Another flaw in Sanders’ roster — no guy who can jump over the line on XPs.
The OVER hits!!
Now for the bench-clearing brawl…
If I’m CSU I’m kicking the extra point here, but I’m not sure if my 54-year-old English kicker is still awake, so I might have to go for 2.
I hate the “no full weight on the QB” penalty. It’s tackle football. Get some flags on the players or get rid of that call.
That said, you can’t fucking drill a guy in the head like that and expect to still be in the game.
Picked a good time to make the hit.
I think the time to cheap-shot the star QB out of the game would be the 1st quarter, but better late than never, I guess.
Up 10 would have been wise.
Nevermind.
“Is this the player- coach or father- son dynamic there?”
Never seen anyone fucking ask that of any other cosch with their son taking a hard hit.
Ok IF they score here, the Ramz have to go for 2 right?
I don’t think they have the balls
You are correct.
Yup, no balls
That’s a big IF, but yes.
Damn cowards. Deserve to lose.
They’ll punt, in keeping with their late game strategy to date.
Philly Philly!
Came here to say this — concur!
Ball game. There’s no way CSU doesn’t fuck this up 8 ways to Sunday.
Regardless, pretty clear Sanders is a total fraud as a coach.
CSU did their part. Utah never would have seen them into OT.
Colorado State doing their best Plaxico Burress impression
CSU really wants to give this game away
