YES, I am indeed super-duper nervous about my Wolven Sort’s match with Wake Forest. Thanks for asking!
Texas A&M (-2.5) at Ole Miss (7:00, ESPN)
Everyone in the mee-jia is 100% on board with Jimbo Fisher’s Bonfire Cult. Not that I want to be the side backing Lane Kiffin, but here we are anyway.
Kenfucky (-21) at Vanderbilt (7:00, ESPN2)
Your weekly reminder that Vandy still exists. Kinda sorta, at least on paper.
Arizona State (-5.5) at Washington (7:00, FS1)
Sparky should protest – if Herm Edwards has to coach their bunch, then the Huskies should have to use Jimmy Lake, too.
NC State (+2) at Wake Forest (7:30, ACCN)
Oh, just fuck all the things already. Genuinely don’t understand how this gets shit-ass ACCN broadcasting, likely the most important game my Shitty Wolves have played in a decade.
Washington State (+14) at Oregon (10:30, ESPN)
You heard it here first – Hippo is predicting the outright upset here. Go Cougs!
Nevada (+3) at San Diego State (10:30, CBSSN)
Looky loo, yet another interesting tweaker fixture for the JV BOLTMEN! Should NC State win earlier, not sure it would be a good or a bad omen for the Wolf Pack. But it’s deffo one or the other. The above pic came back when I searched photo archives for “Nevada” so I just went with it.
Dammit, Bruins playing in the 2nd half like they wanna save Chip’s job.
Whatever, will become eligible for Las Vegas Bowl with the win.
Kansas-Texas in OT is bananacakey goodness.
UT scored to go up a TD in OT, got an unsportsmanlike for celebrating, so KU gets to start from the 12 for their possession.
KU with the TD, going for 2 for the win.
KU WITH THE WIN 57-56
HAHAHAHA FUCK YOU TEXAS, BOTH THE U AND THE STATE
oh you better believe Sarkisian gonna drank chuh chuh
Evening lizard people. Dinner with Hermana Weaselo, Senorita Weaselo, and cellist best friend was wonderful, and I would have never believed that I’d have three amazing women in my life who have my back the way they do. With that I’ll do the rest of Senor Weaselo’s 30 for 30 playlist tomorrow on account of there’s Joffre cake waiting for me.
What is Joffre cake? Chocolate layer cake, chocolate buttercream, chocolate ganache. Death by chocolate Romanian style!
As opposed to currently death by covid.
Glad you’re baller-celebrating as you ought.
Also, the word “baller” can no longer be in your vocab, but then it probably never was.
Ugh, do I start Q-Aron tomorrow or roll with Tanny Fanny so I can at least pretend Rodgers got the suspension he deserves?
Pretend you’re a real NFL owner and play whichever asshole gets you the win.
With Julio out, I kinda think Q-aron is the right call.
But this year, I have been wrong SO MUCH about both college and pro football, you should probably bet the house on the Titans’ over.
Evening.
Howdy
Brewed in Enfield, the town of my youth, (I was 3 when we left), and much like Enfield it’s decidedly meh.
So I was watching full gear, dad comes home and wants to watch 10 rings. So I’m triple screening right now
Omg breakin’!
Wait until you hear about this new movie, ‘The Blair Witch Project’!
I saw that film in Jerome Bettis’ hometown of Detroit, with Ryan Fitzpatrick, who told me that when he was at Harvard the basketball team could have used a player like Jimmy Graham.
Guess he couldn’t take no for an answer from COVID either

Live update. Grub sucks. 0-1 ice hox
please tell me y’all call yourselves the Ice Twalves
Well, Ice Vikings would be sort of redundant…
I did just see a number 12 jersey with fan on the nameplate. Sigh.
Still sucking. 0-2
The suckage has intensified. 0-3 and a natural hat trick.
To drive the point home. Dude’s name is Pitlick and these were the first 3 goals of his season.
Pity power play goal. 1-3 ice hox.
Empty netter with 5 (FIVE) minutes left. Not just the players that suck. 1-4.
Another pity goal. 2-4 ice hox.
And home clutching freezer vodka closely. Don’t have to endure this abuse again until Wednesday.
Have I mentioned before how very much I hate being an NC State supporter?
It’s come up, yes.
well, it’s still very much true
Chip Kelly get the sack if he loses at home to JV Donks?
They owe him a buyout if they let him go before mid-January.
I am fine waiting for late January, but no more than that.
I’m bored, so here’s this:
This Carmen Sandiego reboot has my attention
This picture makes me want to have sex, but it also makes me want pancakes.
You should be bored more often.
I ser Jesus came back to finish the water to wine business.
Ole Miss doing everything they can to give this game to the Aggies
Ole Miss owned the 1st half like Siegfried owned Roy, but they shoulda scored more than 15. Now Jimbo’s Jeniuses have cut it to 5 and old Mo has left Kiffin’s sideline.
Sens up 4-0 on the Pens because you just won’t stop touching yourselves!
WCS would be upset, but he’s banging a princess.
One does not BANG a princess.
One gently PLOWS a princess.
Learn some manners, heathen.
in the case of British princesses the plowing is often done into a tunnel wall
+1 Dodi Fayed.
That name again is Mister Plow! – WCS, Pittsburgh, PA

Does anyone have his mailing address?

It’s 21 now, so afraid the Representative would no longer be interested.
That’s a twist: this time it’s Roethlisberger that gets violated by something entering his body without permission.
Serious question: if you had to bet your life on it, who would do better on an IQ test, Roethlisberger, or Bradshaw?
I can’t bet on Inanimate Carbon Rod?
Bradshaw. Hands down.
https://giphy.com/gifs/mrw-oc-asks-wYyTHMm50f4Dm
Bradshaw has been living with his CTE for 40 years. Apples and oranges. Head to head at the same age, I’d go Bradshaw all day.
Top O the evenin to ya! I have had the booze shakes all day. I may have over done it yesterday in Edmonton.
you know the best cure for that!
Sleep. Lots of it. Unfortunately the time change has fucked up my son and so he gets up every god damned day at 4 am.
Lane Kiffin: smug asshole or smuggest asshole?

UConn high-fiving each other during the opening kick return against Clemson.
I’m assuming that the game ended right there and nothing else happened.
I mean…y’all covered!
You know Dabo is pissed they didn’t get the clean sheet.
MORAL VICTORIES ARE THE BEST VICTORIES!!!
Reminds me of one of my jv games:
Out team fumbled on the two yard line on our first play from scrimmage,
We then scored 49 unanswered points.
That’s what happens when a 5A school schedules a tune up game against a 3a school
Woohoo, gonna lose to the Lions!
Let’s not go overboard here.
Mason Rudolph is the starting QB, so my decision to take Najee Harris with my second pick is going to look like genius, at least until Harris dies from dehydration sometime in the 2nd quarter.
I just checked to see how much the lions defense was projected.
They’re literally ranked 32nd in defense right now
Seems high
🤦♂️

I probably could have scrolled down a mere inch before posting this, but apparently that was too much effort for me.
A real Blair Witch moment.
Me, scrolling down and seeing Fronk and Monty have already covered this:
The Ben: OUT (COVID)
You just know he’s going to turn out to be unvaccinated.
of course, Jeebus is his vaccine

Ben hates vaccine mandates. He has very strong feelings about anyone having anything inserted into them against their will.
Nice.
Are we sure it’s not a herpes flare up?
HARF! The Ben has The #NuAIDS, more Choco Tacos and Call of Duty this weekend!!
HARF HARF COVID
Did TamU leave their defense back on campus?
Bought a couple of new additions to the bar. Something called Genepy le Chamois, which is sort of a poor man’s Chartreuse, and a Gentian amaro.
The latter is used in a cocktail called “Pink & Smoky.” But since it is pink, smoky, and bitter, I see no reason not to call it the “Rizzo.”
There are worse things I could drink….
Jim Tomsula and Ryan Leaf nod in agreement from the overpass they’re living under.
Ryan Leaf does radio for Westwood One now. Who knew?
that “My Pillow” asshole ran an infomercial during State/Wake. He had a cross on his lapel so u noe u can trust him!
Was it a burning cross?
I had a trick-or-treater this year give me her husband’s (yes, this was a grown-ass woman) business card for house painting which she described as “faith-based painting”.
Means you gotta pray the guy shows up, reasonably sober.
Think she grew up in a home with lead-based painting

Seems like something I’d keep to myself.

Hippo is jittier than Michael J. Fox signing a check right now.

-Me, for sure
3-2?
“Seriously? 4-1 all the way!”

I’ll provide the live updates for the Kraken.
(It will not be good for the home team)
If we’re talking hockey, I want to vent about how the Mike Babcock Rehabilitation Tour is underway. David Singh at Sportsnet published a puff piece this week that was such fluffery, Peter King would blush.
