Saban had his crew ready for the first time this year. He must've cut down on the AFLAC commercials and concentrated on his overpriced job. .

Who takes a golf ball to a Tennessee Football game?
Well, you never know when you will get a clear shot at Kiffin.

Ed Ogeron out at LSu, though he apparently will coach the year out.

Edit: Apparently it is a can't keep his dick in his pants sort of issue.

Meatchicken 35, Northwestern 17

Beating them is way more fun when they are coming in riding high. Northwestern is probably the biggest disappointment in the Big However Many West. Meat has been improving their passing attack each week, but I do not think they will need it. The Battle for the Inaugural George Jewett trophy should be over quick.

Pittsburgh 27, ClemSIN 21

Well, Clemson at least has a defense, so they cannot be counted out of any game. Still, that offense is bad. How did this happen, the way they recruit? They were a monumentally bad kicker away from overtime against the Cuse.

the 35, Indiana 10

The IU D looked much better Saturday than I thought it would be. Granted, our O Line is our weak point, but they lived in our backfield all game.  Offensively, though, they do not have much.  Not sure if Pennix is going to be available, but I do think the has put most of its defensive issues behind them, and their offense, specifically their line, is stronger than anything Indiana has faced to date.

the Pennsylvania State University 27, Illinois 3

I do not know if Clifford will be healthy this week, but if I were PSU, and I had any issues with his health, I would sit him.  Illinois is awful. If you cannot beat them with your defense and your second string quarterback, you are in trouble.

Iowa State 24, Oklahoma State 20

Okie State has snuck up the rankings. Sure, part of that may be that Texas continues to be what they were under Herman, no where near as good on the field as they should be, but Okie State is playing good defense.  I do not think they will go though the year unbeaten. Hell, I don't think they make it to Bedlam unbeaten.

Our Lady of the Perpetual Tie 27, University of Southern California 20

I do not think OLofPT is all that, but they should be able to handle the imploding wreck of a team USC has become. I do not envy Vrabel the task he is going to have rebuilding the program.

Alabama 45, Tennessee 21

There are not enough range balls in the world to make a difference here. Besides, it would be a long throw, the game is in Tusks Are Loosa. Hooray for Captain Spaulding, the African Explorer. Did someone call me Schnorrer? Hooray hooray hooray. Sorry. Anyway, I think Alabama still has some defensive liabilities.

Old Mississippi 42, the Louisiana State University 27

Among Ogeron

b]Old Mississippi 42, the Louisiana State University 27[/b]

Among Ogeron's sins: he supposedly hit on the pregnant wife of an LSU official. Which would not matter if they were 6 and 0, but they aren't. I think under the circumstances it is a mistake to keep him on for the rest of the year, but here he is. I note that among the candidates for the LSU head coaching job is Mel Tucker. I am not worried, Tucker has too much integrity to abandon a program he is in the early stages of building to jump for more money somewhere else.  Oh, wait. We may need to pay him more.

Maryland 27, Minnesota 17

Maryland has run into some issues, being the sixth or seventh best Big However Many East team. But the BHME is pretty loaded, and Maryland needs this to have a shot at Bowl Eligibility in the Bowl Eligibility Bowl, last week of the season, against Rutgers.

Wisconsin 17, Purducken 13

I think Purducken being in the Top 25 is a definite over reaction to one game. They have scored 13 points in half of their games, and before Saturday their signature win was a home win over the Beavers. Wisky may be offensively challenged, but there is no issue with their defense.

University of California at Los Angeles 27, Oregon 21

Oregon has looked like a top 10 team exactly once all year, against the in Columbus. Since then, they let a putrid Arizona team hang around way longer than they should have, lost to Stanford, and barely got by Cal. I am not sure when the reckoning is coming, but it is coming.

Mount Union 45, Heidelberg 21

Just to note a couple of things. First, Heidelberg

Mount Union 45, Heidelberg 21

Just to note a couple of things. First, Heidelberg's nickname is the very Sig Romburgian the Student Princes. Second, their win last week over Otterbein was for something called the Rhine River Cup, which is odd because the only river either school is near is the Sandusky River. Third, there are not a lot of games this week I am really interested in. Two of those facts are pretty cool.

Where does your rooting interest lie in that one, son or daughter?

That's always a tough question.  I probably don't root at all.  It's a blast going to the game, so I'll enjoy that.

So, between USC, LSU and Wazoo, I am pretty sure Pullman will be the destination of choice.

Some coaches like actual winters, I guess.
