KIMMEL V KANYE



I honestly don't think there is a bigger joke on this planet than Kanye.

 Dear Kanye,

You are a fucking tool.

Signed,

Everyone

Everything about him sucks. Except "Drive Slow," and that's just because Paul Wall kills it per usual.


Diana Taurasi just being Diana Taurasi




Guarantee she's the best at popping asses with a towel in the shower.

I hear she wears underwear with dick holes in them and pees standing up.

Huge recruiting weekend vs Texas A&M

I know everyone is super pumped for the highly anticipated Johnny Football v AJ Derby matchup we have on our hands, but I'm more excited about the recruiting taking place. Saturday we are suppose to have around 30 football recruits on campus for the A&M game but there's one recruit that stands out above all others. Malik Monk, the #9 basketball prospect in the class of 2016. Malik moved to Bentonville earlier this year to be closer to his brother and former Hog 2 sport athlete, Marcus Monk. Hopefully this is good news for the Hogs as he's closer and we can spend more time recruiting him and making him more at home in the NWA. This guy is a must get. 360 windmill dunks in the 8th grade. Stupid.

1:28 mark is how you make a poster.


I love Cee Lo Green and I don't care who knows it



So I was watching Leno on Wednesday night and lo and behold my main man Cee Lo Green was on there and it got me thinking... Is there anyone out there better at Cee Lo at anything? I really don't think there is. This guy was dealt a pretty shitty hand if I may say so myself. Tiny hands. Huge head. Tiny Body. Huge belly. Terrible rapper. Fashion like a dick head. Does that stop him? Not even close. Straight killin it 24/7. King of accessories. Oh today I'll rock this pink parrot, tomorrow a fluffy puss. On Leno he said this year he brought a 12 foot python to the Voice and they told him to never bring it back. My money is on Cee Lo turning that python into a snake skin hat/mask combo. Just changing the game on a daily basis.








Goodie Mob performed on Leno to end the show and it was absolutely terrible. Of course footage of it can't be found but I was lucky enough to find a similar performance on the View so you can see for yourself. Cee Lo, I don't think rapping is for you... or the rest of the Goodie Mob. 




PS- how fucking awful is Jay Leno? Can we please hurry up and get Fallon on. I'm tired of everything turning into a weird sexual innuendo that isn't the least bit funny. It's crazy that you have to be the uggliest person on the planet to get famous and here I am just a sexy beast that gets no attention.... Life as a blogger I guess...

Reggie Bush sighting!




This might be my favorite video of all time. Classic shirts v skins. I think. Hell, I can't tell who's all on the same team but I tell you what, I'm taking Reggie Bush first pick. And just so everyone knows, that's definitely Triceps McGee getting his ass whooped at the register. Look, just let them get their black n' mild wood tips and let them get out of the way.

Is it time to panic?


If you ever took advice from me regarding fantasy sports anything in the world, I give you my sincerest of apologies. Apparently I'm fucking terrible at everything. But since you're reading this I'm guessing you already knew that.

In honor of last night's Emmy's there are a few people I'd like to thank in making my sports life absolutely miserable.

1. Trent Richardson, David Wilson, Stevan Ridley. I owe you guys for not only making my teams terrible, but for making me look like a fucking idiot. In my 3 big money leagues I have a combination of these 3 guys, and have all 3 in my dynasty league. Sure they may get their shit together eventually but by then I'm guessing I'll be well out of the playoff picture. I can't even sell these guys for a Danny Woodhead/Oakland Raiders D combo. Here's to relying on Bilal Powell and Willis McGahee the rest of the way. 

2. Justin Verlander. Hey buddy, it's pretty obvious something's wrong with you when you quit motorboating Kate Upton's jugs without a restraining order. I should've known I couldn't trust this guy. You ever seen Bull Durham? I guess Verlander stopped breathing out his eyes and wearing her panties on the mound because he's a fucking bum now. Did a $100 baseball league and took Verlander first round. Yep. I went full retard on that one.

3. Arkansas Razorback Linebackers/Secondary. Look I know people have been pointing at coaching and QB play as to why we lost, but I beg to differ. AJ Derby didn't turn the ball over and our coaches implemented some wrinkles that had us winning when we looked absolutely dismal. I guess hurting Rutgers' running back was the worst thing we could do because they just started airing it out. Austin Jones is terrible and has no business trying to cover anybody, much less a tight end at a D1 school. I know we took a pick 6 back to the house but that was simply because Trey Flowers anhiliated their QB and the ball magically fell short. Our D line almost single handidly won us that game on Saturday. Philon is the future. Chris Smith and Trey Flowers are the real deal. But for the love of God can we get Brooks Ellis in the game. Can we leave Otha in at all times. Where's Myke Taveres? Martrell Spaight was flying all over the place (dropped a game winning pick 6 too). Jared Lake you have a football IQ of British hair dresser and he gave Rutgers points to end the half. Rohan Gaines where you at? Could've used you playing safety on 4th and 13 when Tevin Mitchell decided to bump and run. And why the hell does Hocker not punt every time we are in our own territory? He just booted one 77 yards earlier to flip the playing field. Hey I'm not saying I expected to win 9 games this year but I sure as hell hoped for 6 and that's pretty much impossible now. 

4. My Doctors. 9 months after an ankle sprain I get put in a full walking boot for a month. It would've been nice for that to happen when I went to the doctor in March. Then in April again. Also just got allergy tested and apparently I not only need to live in a bubble, but I need that bubble dusted about 4 times a day. And I'm not talking about the good getting dusted where you inhale keyboard duster and talk like a demon. They test for 48 allergens and most people who have allergies come back positive with anywhere from 6-15 positive allergens. Not bubble boy here. Nope. I racked up 39 of those bitches. Pow! Allergies at it's absolute best and by best I mean I throw up 4 cups of snot every morning, spit loogies like I chew tobacco, and pretty much just gross out anyone I talk to.

yep I've got to quit typing. I'm starting to go fuzzy and my ears are bleeding. Must be the dust on the keyboard. Probably not good. Probably time to panic. Where the fuck is the duster....

On a brighter note the hogs are opening +3 against A&M so go put all the money you possibly can on A&M. I hear they're a bit better than Rutgers.

This is how you make game day signs



I just broke rule #1


Parlay: Ark +2.5, Ark St. -4

Yep. I bet on the Hogs. Not only that but I threw Arkansas State in on top of it to make it a parlay. You can call me a homer all you want but I prefer to be called a winner. 

No quarterback? No problem. Look, lets not start pretending our game revolved around Brandon Allen to be successful. Lets pretend he never got hurt. What would we be talking about going into this game? That we have to manage the clock. Keep their offense off the field. Be bigger and stronger and push them around the field. I would be mostly focused on our defense and if we can cover their receivers. Can we tackle their back? Can we continue to get pressure just rushing four? They may have the #2 running back in the nation right now but we have the #3 and #7 running backs. That's not too shabby. Aside from quarterback we're healthy at every position now returning Keon Hatcher, Austin Tate, Rohan Gaines, and Otha Peters. I think Derby won't be near as terrible as people think and will complete some play action passes. Plus their kicking game is bad with their field goal kicker missing 3 already this season. If it is a close game I think we have the edge since our kicker is the best player on our team according to NCAA 14.

Memphis' starting quarterback last year is now the back up for UCA. Memphis is terrible. ASU is basically playing a home game going to Memphis and those damn Red Wolves are a well oiled machine. I honestly don't know very much about this game whatsoever except that I'd be absolutely shocked if Memphis keeps it within double digits. That's probably not the best strategy to take when picking games but fuck it. It's only money. And when I've got a gut feeling, I only miss about 46% of the time. That's pretty much guaranteed money in Vegas world. 

Scared money don't make no money.

How bad ass is it going to be when college football has a playoff


I can't think of anything in the entire universe better than a college football playoff. And this somewhat happens starting next year. I guess a final 4 is better than nothing but I still think it needs to be at least 8 teams. You could still have your bowl sponsors and what not. Just say winner of Cotton Bowl and Gator Bowl play in the Sugar Bowl. Winners of the Sugar Bowl and Orange Bowl play in the Championship Game. Holy shit I'm a genius. Somebody sign me up for something.

If we don't get to see Oregon v Alabama in the Championship this year then everyone needs to write their senator. Only logical thing to do.

3-0 feels damn good



Coming into the season I felt like there were 3 positions we couldn't afford to lose a starter at. QB, C, and K. Whether you are a Brandon Allen believer or not, it was proven Saturday that we're fucking terrible without the sophomore quarterback. Like, I'm talking we might not be able to win one game without him.

Allen suffered a bruised AC joint and is expected to be back by next weekend for the trip to Rutgers. But I tell you what, he didn't impress me very much when he was in there. Regardless, there's still so much he does for the team that just makes it run effectively. Checks at the lines. Understanding of the offense. Catching shotgun snaps. That kind of stuff.

How about our defensive end tandem. If a team gets behind on us and has to throw it to get back into the game, watch out. Flowers and Smith constantly beat their guy and get to the quarterback. The diving catch Flowers made was one of the most bad ass things I've ever seen. And I've seen some shit. Robert Thomas is making a statement to get drafted and Darius Philon is emerging as a difference maker. It would be nice if we could get a linebacker to fill the hole when a lineman disrupts the play. It seems like if Thomas doesn't make the play two yards behind the line of scrimmage you might as well give them 4 yards because our LBs our sitting on their heels and not pushing the runners back.

Southern Miss is terrible and there's a reason why they're 0-15 and have the longest losing streak in the nation. Rutgers should be a bit better but I still think they're an overall bad team.

Rutgers lost their quarterback on Saturday to a concusion but beat a terrible Eastern Michigan team 28-10 while being outgained in yardage. Their sophomore RB went for 192 and broke 2 long TD runs in the second half to ice the game. Sounds familiar. They also retired Eric LeGrand's jersey Saturday, the kid that was paralyzed in 2010 while making a tackle. I think that's awesome that they did that. I really do. I'm also glad they did it last week and not next week when we come to town. I expect us to go into their place, keep our composure, have two running backs go over 100 yards, and hand them an ass whipping.

#1-0

side note:

It always tickled me in the preseason when Wisconsin fans would talk about how terrible Coach B was and how they're glad he's gone. Well I pretty much guarantee you the shit show that occurred to lose the game Saturday would not have happened under his watch.

Jets continue to ruin my life

No Parlay. No survivor team left. No Clowney. Still no QB.

Hopefully accidentally winning will allow us to cut the dirty sanchez, but the QB situation still is decimal at best. I can already hear the 'we want Testeverde' chants now. 

I became a Jets fan back when I was real young and the only thing I really knew about football was I hated the Cowboys and John Elway. Elway played the Jet's in the AFC championship game so I rooted for the Jets like a boss that night. Wayne Chrebet became my new favorite player when he stole the show by being slow and white and catching everything thrown his way. The Jets lost of course and Elway went on to win 2 rings. And I, for some fucking reason, kept being a Jets fan regardless.


In 2007 the Jets were absolute garbage. They were 3-12 going into week 17 and played a terrible Chiefs team who was 4-11. Jets were in line to get the 3rd pick in the draft the following year and were in all likelihood going to take Darren McFadden aka Mr. Stud Dick himself.  Kellen Clemens led the Jets to a 13-10 OT shit show win and we get the 6th pick. Dmac goes 4th to Oakland and we get Vernon Gholston who recorded 42 tackles and 0 sacks in 3 years. Chris Johnson and Ray Rice would go later in the 1st/2nd rd. 

In 2009 we traded all our picks in the draft plus 3 players to move up and take Mark Sanchez. Then we go on to 2 AFC championship games we had no business being in and make it on Hard Knocks. I declared I was all in and now we suck forever. 

On 11/17/2011 I bet $400 the 2 time defending AFC runners up would beat the lowly Tim Tebow led Broncos. Then the Messiah on the field taught me gambling was wrong and left me in the corner crying in the fetal position. 



Only makes sense that after that we sign him and not let him play for us. Then cut him and continue to pay him.

Fat coach can't even be fat right. Laughing stock of the NFL. Fucking circus. Favre. Tebow. Buttfumble. Me owning a Sanchez jersey. Just makes me all sick. Now we can't even lose right.

For what it's worth initial contact was made with Geno before he ever touched out of bounds. Pussification of America continues. Either that, or my life is part of some big Truman Show type ordeal.



Yep Ridley and Wilson make my teams terrible

I own Steven Ridley or David Wilson in all 4 of my leagues and have both of them in the Hitstick Dynasy league. Now my teams are terrible and it's all their fault. 







2 running backs given the chance to be the lead guy behind a top rated O-line and you literally give away your opportunity. Neither coach puts up with this bullshit and neither may see the field next week. With any luck they may earn some trust by week 7 or so but that may be too late for your boy here. Now I'm left trying to pick up Joique Bell or Alfonso Smith to start for my team. In case you've never played fantasy football before, that's not very good. 

I mean I honestly can't figure out how you can be so fumble prone. You're an NFL running back for crying out loud that's the first thing you should be good at. This blows my mind. 

At least in the $250 league I only got Ridley and was able to get AJ Green, Victor Cruz, and Jared Cook and will walk away with high point this week. 



Thank God for AJ Green

You will definitely want these guys on your fantasy roster after week 1

MARKUS WHEATON - WR- STEELERS


Wheaton was drafted out of Oregon State in the third round of this years draft by the Steelers to be the #3 guy. With Mike Wallace gone and Antonio Brown moving over to the outside as the #1, look for the speedster, Wheaton, to line up in the slot and stretch the opposing defense. The Steelers are without safety net Heath Miller and I think Wheaton is there to pick up the scraps. Their run game is going to struggle throughout the year which is going to force big Ben to drop back and throw the ball more often. When Big Ben breaks 4 sacks and scrambles he usually finds someone open deep and I think Wheaton will often be that someone.

Bold Prediction: 

Markus Wheaton will lead the Steelers wide receivers in fantasy points this year.


DANNY WOODHEAD- RB- CHARGERS


No, really. Danny Woodhead. I'm serious. Look, this guy is a helluva football player. He played at Chadron State College where he set NCAA DII single season and career rushing records and won the Harlon Hill Trophy (DII Heisman), twice. He was a serviceable backup fantasy back at times throughout his time in NE, but this year he's going to work his way into some starting lineups this year. Look, I'm not saying he's going to be a RB1 but in most leagues running backs are thin and this guy is going to get points. Last year the Chargers led the league in the passes thrown behind the line of scrimmage and screen plays. That's Danny Woodhead's game. Ryan Matthews has proven he is absolute fucking trash so I look for Woodhead to earn his way to a good amount of carries and challenge for the starting spot down the road. 

Bold Prediction:

Danny Woodhead will start 8 games at RB in San Diego and lead the team in rushing


Jermaine Gresham


People are all over the Tyler Eifert bandwagon and it's simply because we tend to fall in love with the new shiny toy. Well lets not forget Jermaine Gresham was an all-american at Oklahoma and was the best tight end in the nation. It's no secret AJ Green is the main threat for the Bengals, but then what? A good team with a young QB is going to have to have production out of the tight end spot to be the Super Bowl contender some think they can be. If you watched Hard Knocks you couldn't help but notice Gresham. He's 6'5" and ran over everyone in his sight this preseason. Andy Dalton seems to have developed a comfortable relationship with him and looks for him quite a bit when Green is double covered.

Bold Prediction:

Gresham will be a Pro-Bowl tight end and score 7 TD's this season.


NFL Payday- Making this shit too easy for you


Parlay: Tampa Bay -2.5 @ NY Jets, U 41

Jets are starting rookie quarterback, Geno Smith, who apparently spent too much time under Sanchez's wing. Just flat out bad. Bucs have a solid D and are going to capitalize on turnovers and lack of actual NFL talent by the Jets. I expect a low scoring game as the Jets D still finished tops in stopping the pass without Revis. Apparently Vegas knows something I don't to make this spread less than 10 points. Great chance Jets go 0-16 and then draft someone that won't be in the league in 2 years. 



Falcons @ Saints -3

Asante Samuel battling thigh injury and might not play meaning the Falcons would start 2 rookie cornerbacks. Drew Brees is the best in the business and now doesn't have to worry about trying to be the head coach since Sean Payton has returned. If I know Sean he's bringing a can of that Stone Cold Steve Austin Whoop Ass. Matt Ryan is 1-4 in the Super Dome and the Falcons can't win a big game. It's science. 


Monday Night: Texans -3.5 @ Chargers

I can't wrap my head around this line. Look, if you have a savings account or some sort of trust fund set up for your future kids, bet it on the Texans. I'm not so sure the Chargers will even score a touchdown this year let alone get within 4 points of the Texans Monday night. Danny Woodhead might be there best player. No, really he really might be. Arian Foster is healthy for week 1 and Andre Johnson looks like it's 4 years ago. Cushing is back and lets not forget JJ Watt still plays for them. This one is going to get ugly.




Commish Picks YTD: 1-0

#1-0: Knee Jerk Reaction


Knee jerk reaction: not too thrilled but damn it's nice to be 2-0

How do you out gain the other team's offense 458 to 231 and only win by 10? Well losing the turnover battle 2-0 and having 6 penalties for 65 yards is a start. Last week we beat an over hyped ULL team who got their ass handed to them by a subpar KSU. Last week we had all the hype of playing in the season opener and played with a chip on our shoulder. This week after a solid first two drives we looked like we were content and stopped playing with intensity. Playing without intensity is unacceptable.

D-Line get your shit together. Sometimes I think our D line thinks they're not allowed to get off a block. I'm tired of seeing them stay blocked the entire play. Only positive was seeing Robert Thomas make a few plays early and a glimpse of Philon. Other than that, not too impressed. Samford's RB had 16 carries for 103 yards. Look, if Samford is going to come run the ball for over 100 we may not win 1 SEC game. The read option is pretty much impossible for us to stop. I was surprised to see a 3rd down stop on a quick hitch pass but that might be the only time I've ever seen us stop that. I thought for the most part Alan Turner and Braylon Mitchell looked lost.

Word is Trey Flowers tweaked his knee and only sat for precautionary measures.

I'm going to need to see a linebacker make a play in the near future. And I don't mean drag someone down 4 yards passed the line of scrimmage. I mean hit someone and knock them backwards. I was hoping we were going to be able to redshirt Otha and AJ Turner but we're going to need some speed out there at some point. I just think an extra year with Randy Shanon would be a huge benefit for them down the road. Brooks Ellis looked big as shit when they showed him on the sideline I'm going to need to see more of him.

I was disappointed to see a lack of Hunter Henry involvement. Had a penalty against him to negate a third down. Caught one pass. Kody Walker probably doesn't need to be on the field unless we're on the 1 inch line and Jwill, Buddha, and Kiero all are in the locker room taking a shit. Sweet 3rd down drop now go sit your ass out the rest of the year.

Can we please incorporate a screen pass. Please. Our running backs are our best weapons and we need to find more ways to get them the ball. Pretty sure PA threw like 14 screens to Hunter Henry a game. You know why? Because it fucking works.

Almost threw up everywhere when for no apparent reason we started trying to throw the ball when the lead was dwindling away. And it obviously wasn't working. Dejavu at it's absolute worse. I still have nightmares of Paul Petrino. Idaho must literally the worst team in the NCAA to hire him to do anything for their team let alone be there head coach. I mean really. Just look at this guy. What a joke.




On a bright note...

Travis Swanson looks amazing out there. Just absolutely looks like a first round pick. I'll admit I have know idea what that exactly looks like but it sounds damn good. I saw him pulling quite a bit, leading the way and sealing the edge. Him and Kiero Small helped lead us to 333 yards on the ground. Run game looking damn good. Samford for some reason has a gigantic D line. Their D end weighing in at like 315. That's fucking ridiculous.

Oh yeah and Alex Collins is a monster. 26 carries, 172 yards, 1 TD. On the year he has 45 carries for a bit over 300 yards. That's over 6.6 yards per carry. This kid is the real deal. I'd like to see him break a few more tackles and not look to break it outside so much. I'm not going to complain though when his first contact is 5 yards down the field. That's called hitting the hole. Liked seeing him lower his shoulder tonight. Made some big contact in the trenches and didn't shy away from it. Get used to it because rumor has it the SEC has some big dudes.

Jonathan Williams had 126 yards on 17 carries with a touchdown and a costly fumble. Looked good other than that fumble which put him in the dog house for a bit, costing him a few carries. Small added 25 yards on 5 carries but lacked to be a factor receiving the ball. I guess it's hard to be too involved when your team only completes 9 passes the whole game. Brandon Allen had a couple nice little runs too.

Herndon with yet another bad ass one handed catch.

Most importantly we did walk away with the win which is more than we can say about last year. Maybe a 4th quarter comeback where we were able to run the ball and make some third down conversions is exactly what we needed to shake last year. I believe in our coaches and I believe they will use this game as a learning opportunity. It was nice to see nobody lost their cool and we were able to keep their calm, return to their game plan, and take the lead back. And keep the lead.

#1-0.

ps. at least texas sucks. Makes this ugly win feel a bit better.


Straight Cash Homey

I've been missing all week but I'd never let my degenerates down.  Take these two picks to the bank.  




1H  U24   Florida @ Miami

Florida has one of the best defenses in the world.  Not just the SEC but the world, Craig. Pick up some quick cash betting the first half under.  You can thank me later.





WKU +13.5 @ Tenn
Bobby is 5-0 against the SEC in non-conference.  He'll move to 6-0 today against the Vols and for some reason Vegas is giving him points.  UT has the advantage up front but it doesn't matter when the ball is getting thrown over their head for 6.


YTD 1-1

Jen Hilman just saved my life



Before everyone floods me with comments saying how lame yoga is let me just spare you. Actually go fuck yourself if you're not down with yoga. Ironic that yoga is pretty important when one would try and fuck themself.

Jen Hilman may not have literally saved my life but she's defintely made life a little easier to live. Apparently the life of a blogger is bad for your back and the only thing that can make it better is trying to make your body look like an egg. I turn 28 in 2 weeks and apparently that's about the magic age for everything to just start hurting. So if you're trying to stay young and live forever or at least not hurt all the damn time from sitting in a car, then give Jen a few minutes of your week.

Side note the only time I've ever touched the rim was after a yoga class in college. If I would've stuck with it I'd be pro by now. In something. Anything.

Hey Jen I got one more muscle for you to stretch. Am I right everyone?

Kiero Small is a bad man


Dude played 50 snaps Saturday. That's the most he's ever played in a game. His injury last year was definitely a blessing in disguise. I can't imagine a better fullback and leader for the hogs. 2 years ago he broke like 183 facemasks in practice and we practiced like a single A highschool team. Just walking around chairs on the basketball court and shit. Defense wasn't allowed to ever touch the ball.

He even lined up at tailback a few times during the game on short yardage and late in the game. This guy is a monster. Coach B, get this man drafted.

#1-0: Commish's Recap

Nobody said being a hogs fan was easy and Saturday's heat made sure it wasn't. It's all good though because I got to see the game from the best seats in the house.



Things that caught my eye:

- In the first half our D-line got pushed around. Makes me nervous to go up against an SEC O-line. If I were going to play against us I would run the read option all day long. We can't stop it. Or a quick hitch/WR screen. Also, our LBs can't cover a tight end. I'm pretty sure ULL ran the tight end drag every time they needed 4 yards and they got it. 

+ Zack Hocker has a monster leg. That's huge to not give the opponent a chance to return the ball on kickoffs. Bielema said after the game Hocker wasn't fully healthy. Going to be vital he gets full strength.

+ Run game. Run game. Run game. Also, Nate Holmes definitely clipped on the Jwill 75 yard td run. Wasn't necessary bc he was going to score regardless so I don't want to take away from him. Just can't let mental errors like this cost us in the future. Because something like that can turn a whole game around. 

-ULL wasn't very good. Broadway was errant on many a throw and didn't see wide open TDs on 2 plays I know of for sure. Missed an early chip shot field goal. We were bigger and pushed them around and wore them out.

+ Hunter Henry is the real deal. It's so hard to believe this kid is only a freshman. He's going to be scary good. Although he had a fumble and a third down drop, he proved he's going to be a playmaker. I can't wait to see him every single game. Probably my favorite player. Don't sleep on Jeremy Sprinkle and Keon Hatcher either. I'm no longer worried about offensive firepower. We're definitely not a one dimensional team like some feared. Kiero Small looked real good catching the ball out of the backfield. Truck city. Brandon Allen spins it well. Nice deep ball and put the ball on the money through some tight windows. Could've done without the throw across his body into the endzone.

+ Amoeba D on 3rd down. Like it. Love it. Coach Ash installed it for teams with mobile QBs. The idea is there are no true DTs and allows for faster players to chase the quarterback if he tries to scramble. Loved that we brought pressure and since Chris Smith was double teamed all day it was only a matter of time before Trey Flowers started wreaking havoc. 

I haven't had a feeling like this after a hogs game in over a year. It feels like we have hope. But we can't get content. Arkansas is the only team in the SEC to play 8 straight without a bye. And that last game of the stretch is on the road versus two time defending national championship powerhouse Alabama. While we're not where we want to ultimately be I'm pretty excited about what I saw and the potential we have over Coach B's tenure.




Suns out, Guns out. #1-0


Looks like Manziel learned his lesson





Just right in the NCAAs face. I really don't understand why he would piss on the NCAA because he'll never make this kind of money playing football ever again. NFL defenses will kill him.

2007 Run DMC and Felix dominate South Carolina


Now if this isn't foreshadowing I don't know what the hell is. I'm by no means saying Jwill and Buddha are on Dmac/Felix level I'm just saying the future looks bright. Real bright. In 07 every run play had the chance to go the distance. a-la 7:40 mark. Lets not mistake ULLs defense yesterday to that of any SEC teams, but JWill taking one 75 to the house showed we could be heading that way again. Everyone knew it was going to happen at some point. First two plays of the game were 11 yard runs so it was just bound to happen.



And it's going to happen again. I just hope it happens in a big game. Maybe one we aren't suppose to win. That would be nice.

What the hitstickers or whatever you call yourselves want is what you get. Rich Rod just straight doing his thing. #2 can't even believe it. Me neither bro. Me neither.

Mississippi State @ Oklahoma St. -12

I picked Oklahoma State to win the big 12, but that's partly because I hate Texas and Oklahoma more than a normal person probably should. Listen, I know the big 12 is a joke and they can't hold the SECs jock but something tells me Gundy has some tricks up his sleeve. I look for Oklahoma State to try and run the score up when they have this game in hand just to make a statement they won't be pushed around by the SEC. And honestly when your coach has moves like this you can't help but just beat peoples ass from time to time. Yea I see you #84
