Huzzah, we are back for another helping: Arizona State (+8.5) at Unded Bill Snyders (7:00, ESPN) Poor little Sparky, 7-2 and absolutely nobody is buying it. Oregon (-14) at Wisconsin (7:30, NBC) Another week, another super-extensive, prime-time turd for NBC. On top of Notre Dame playing a schedule that would make a decent high

No EPL this morning, international break. Here is your lukewarm tofu-based menu for today: Steerfuckers South (-13.5) at Pig Sooey (Noon, ABC) I can't figure the Hawgs out, but here's hoping they make a better showing today than I expect.

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - November 12, 2024November 12, 202472

AUTHORS NOTE: You may be wondering why I am writing the Niners Bye Week Update a week after their bye. The simple answer is that America had Kind of A Lot Going On Right Now last week, and the ups and downs of the Santa Clara Failsons just didn't register
