Arkansas (+2.5) v. Texas A&M at JerralWorld (7:00, ESPN) A specially scheduled game to serve one man's ego, in the temple to said ego. Hope that it's compelling viewing, otherwise this be the nap window. Kansas State (+13) at Oklahoma (8:00, Fox) Remember, LOVE Unded Bill Snyders as a big underdog. No matter

JV NFL Stands Alone (Early Sabado Open Thread)
Despite the calendar disruptions for the Slave LaboUr World Cup, Lesser Footy still works in a stupid window for international friendlies. BLECH. Hope y'all slept in. Clemson (-7) at Wake Forest (Noon, ABC) Meaningful ACC footy! Say it ain't so. I can't decide if I want Wake to win (for Atlantic tiebreaker
Thursday Night Paulin’ Thread
Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 2, 2022 Season
One might have imagined a reversion to normalcy, after a chaotic-as-fuck Week One. One would be wrong. Better type this shit up before my brain melts. As y'all know, the transitive property doesn't work with football. Otherwise, as Dok noted, Detroit was on pace to become the NFL's best squadron. They
September Stress JV Night Thread
Partially Lesser and Fully (Early) JV Thread
Well, the stupid Queen is still fucking ded. I still don't care, apart from this weekend's schedule being at least less fucked up (though note that "fashionable" Sky Six sides Chelski, Men Untied, and Filthy Redshite all get the weekend off after their European travels). Partial fuckery beats full fuckery. No

Merry 9/11 Eve! JV NFL Night Thread
This week, it's worth doing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tj08Ni3tklw Kentucky (+5.5) at Florida (7:00, ESPN) This game is always fun, this line is an overreaction to Week 1. Wager accordingly. SillyCuse (-23) at UConn (7:00, CBSSN) Clubhouse Derby! And a resurrection of one of the 1980s greatest rivalries. Just in a sport that neither school much cares about. Southern
“European Hangover?” EPL and Early JV Thread
The Qatar Slave LaboUr Cup has messed with footy's schedule, and we got Shempions action in the first week of September (and before any international break). Perhaps this will cause a little heartburn for the European contestants, or we won't notice at all. Anyway, none of this is Thomas Tuchel, who
JV Saturday Thread de la Noche
JV Saturday Thread teh Firstest
There's a fuckton of action (AND narrative!!) later tonight, so that will get its own thread. But don't neglect the hors d'oeveres! NC State (-11.5) at East Carolina (Noon, ESPN) NC State should never, ever play these hillbilly Deliverance extras. ESPECIALLY in Satan's taint (aka Greenville, North Cakalaky). But, because our "leadership"
