FYI, Bournemouth/Brighton (10:00, USA) and City/Spurs (12:30, NBC) are reasonable enough watches.
Indiana (+13.5) at tOhio State (Noon, Fox)
Hoosiers finally get their big test. Maybe too big? Let’s hope they come good (PHRASING), anyway.
Ole Miss (-10) at Florida Men (Noon, ABC)
Gators will be feeling their oats coming off last week’s humbling of LSU. Johnny Reb is another level up, though. Maybe also an emotional hangover?
SMU (-10) at Virginia (Noon, ESPN2)
Death by SMU-SMU danced with disaster last week (home to BC), and need to fix their shit in order to avoid this banana skin.
Paedo State (-11.5) at Minnesota (3:30, CBS)
It would be so very awesome for these Paedo jackasses to lose, and the Gophers likely have enough defensively to at least annoy them.
Original Recipe Big Love (+3) at Arizona State (3:30, ESPN)
Winner gets the inside lane to the “surprise package” Big Twaaaaalve championship game. But the chaotic ride will never, ever make sense.
Colorado (-3) at Kansas (3:30, Fox)
Speaking of chaos, this is the last real regular season obstacle for the Fightin’ Deions. Rock Chalk is better than their record shows, and they seem to embrace the “giant killer” role. Already priced into the line, though.
Okay, Media. Can Coach Prime no longer be a thing?
Stupid ASU.
I just chased down the fedex truck and carried 15 bottles of wine 3 blocks. I suddenly have a strong opinion about having a working buzzer

Is it good? I’m always down to try a new ramen item.
I’m never a huge fan of seafood-flavored things without the actual seafood, but it’s fine. Pretty much any ramen you pay more than $1.50 per package for (these were $7 for four if I’m remembering correctly) is going to be at least decent.

great series of outcomes for Tennessee today.
2 QB dynasty league, have traded away Daniels and some others, and now Purdy is hurt. So…..Minshew, Cooper Rush, or Tommy Cutlets at QB2?
Cutlets not a bad play this week.
Minshew
/not professional advice
MINSHEW MANIA
Weirdly, I think Cutlets might be the safest pick. The other two are in danger of getting replaced (by Ridder and Lance).

Is Indiana’s QB calling plays in the huddle or describing what he would do with his linemen’s female relatives?

One likes to daydream about a multi-state killin’ spree, but deep down inside? We all know it’s too much work.
Yeah, much easier to inspire a copycat multi-state killin’ spree. You get the credit without having to do the legwork.
I don’t want to go out east. So, other than lurking around the monument at Four Corners, it’d be just an insane amount of driving to commit murders in different arbitrary legal jurisdictions.
I mean, what’s it even matter the state? Killing is illegal everywhere.
I’m gonna work on getting MAGA to ram through my raw milk agenda in AZ.

Yeah this is getting ugly.
How do I show UI is what their record is? A tiny ten, a normal dash, and an enormous block/bold/underlined one?
I was wearing my IU sweatshirt, but I sniffed sommet awful and think maybe one of the cats peed on it last night (it was cold, so this would be a sensible alternative to asking Hippo to let him out).
Brocky, take that for what symbolism ye will.
Hmm, IU plays in a conference with northwestern and Penn state, both who have cat mascots, but i think the guilty party is likely Kentucky
this…this checks out

Long ass day of getting everyone else’s problems and issues. Lord grant me peace or grant me an alibi.
You were in the Clubhouse the whole time.
I mean, you were doing a lot of laundry, burning some oddly-shaped things wrapped up in carpets, and vigorously scrubbing your pants while you were in the Clubhouse, but you were definitely here.
And I’m personally happy to testify to as much, except of course for the time period I wasn’t present because the defendant I mean Redshirt asked me to run out and buy some more bleach.
And lye! Don’t forget the lye!
To the cops? Yeah I can lye for ya.
Boy, I guess Rodri was the correct pick for player of the year after all. City are LOST without him.
Indiana should perhaps cover that Tate kid.
This is one of the most underwhelming long-TD run calls I’ve ever heard.

I don’t hear anyone complaining.
For you intrepid travelers, the Toronto gathering is April 15th through the 19th. Staying right downtown. Niagara Falls is being discussed for the 18th but the rest is just visiting a city and folks I’ve never met.
Not yet.
What will this mean for the Maple Leafs chances to win the Stanley Cup?
/Seriously, doesn’t most of the DFO Canuckistani contingent want to burn Toronto to the ground?
Just checked my schedule. I have an absolutely awful case scheduled for a Court trial on the 21st.
Going to have to up my “settle this stupid thing immediately” game.
I love visiting Toronto. Not living there
Niagara Falls is about 90 miles from Toronto via driving around the western edge of Lake Ontario, or about half that if you take a boat.
For comparison, the distance from Los Angeles to San Diego is about 100 miles, depending on how you want to measure it, but also has great train service between them.
But I’m familiar with the areas and I can tell you that Niagara Falls is worth a visit. So is a ride on the Pacific Surfliner.
Masterful opening drive by the Fightin’ Brockys.
It was nice while it lasted…
…things I definitely didn’t say on prom night
Forgot to mention the scotchy/Ho-and-Low-Ratio Derby. On ACCN RITE NOW!!
Oh, that is not going to end well for the Fightins.

BOURNEMOUTH HIT THE FUCKING POST!!!
Crystal Palace are the Chicago Bears of the Premier League. Shitty, but never quite shitty enough to where they just kick them out.
That means you’ve selected them as your side, yeah??
Yeah, I did one of those online quizzes. Also, I enjoy the song “Glad All Over.”
They do have very cool uniforms, though.

Rooting for Arsenal against Nottingham Forest feels like rooting for the sheriff over Robin Hood, but I’m still gonna do it.
Just think of it as rooting for Alan Rickman against Kevin Costner.
I feel better already!
/I finally broke down and watched Costner’s “destroy my finances” dream project ‘Horizon’ the other night. It’s actually a pretty decent Western, and would probably be better if there weren’t the foundations for 3 or 4 movies in there, each of 3 or 4 hours duration.
It was a solid “By the numbers” western but it feels like it’s going to run longer than “Gunsmoke” by the time it’s done.
Exactly. There’s ‘Epic Western’ and then there’s ‘Holy Shit Wrap It Up Already.’

Sitting in the car in Richmond watching eldest’s soccer team get fucking dismantled. These kids just went undefeated in their regular season, the first team EVER from this soccer club (Shenandoah County) to do it. So this jerkoff coach decided it’d be a great idea to get fucking humiliated down here, end the season on a horrible note, and make all the families travel and pay for hotel accommodations the weekend before thanksgiving to do it.
I am a grumpy fuck. I might have pneumonia right now, and the inside of my skull is collapsing like wet sand leaving only lightning bolts of rage and suicidal ideation pinging and echoing like fruit bats off dark, wet bone.
Another stupid situation in America.
at least Rum Ham won’t lose today
So this was a non conference thing, just a “friendly”?
What a buzz kill. Poor kids.
Yeah. These other teams are really good. Like, “grab a copy of their roster” good, so I can follow some of their players in college.
You do that stuff, playing way above your level as a gut check, early in a season. Just not thinking there.
Hopefully there is at least pizza at the end of the day
Orange slices for everyone!
I feel like teaching them to smoke after this.
My brain is vile poison like that right now.
Find em some nice prerolls, they will love you for it.

Suitable for my Saturday night activities.
I fucking hate waking up early, already been up 2 hours. Now I will feel even more guilt when I get nothing accomplished while even having extra time.
These are not productive morning hours.
Meh, relaxing and resting is good for you. We all need time to heal and recharge
“And don’t forget to refuel, too!” – Zion Williamson, loading up an 8-quart mixing bowl with shrimp alfredo
I’m the opposite. I get most of my tasks done before lunch, then tend to sluff off in the late afternoon and evening. I blame my morning paper route as a kid. Since I was about 13 I’ve been getting up at 4 AM. When I first retired I tried running in the afternoon but never was comfortable with it. Since I start work at 8 getting the run in cleaning up and the drive in is my early morning routine. I’m now hard wired for that. But I do plan on slipping that to about 6 when I retire in 18 months. I am looking forward to that.
Up early on a Saturday to get the winter tyres out on the car, so sitting in a waiting room with the other up too early peeps. And my timing was off this morning, so didn’t get a coffee before I left, so, as the kids say, raw dogging it.
Also, no love for the Canadian [edit: men’s university ] football championship game? Have no idea if there’s a line for it, or even where to look?
