Like I texted Gumby and posted on facebook:

"Doesn’t matter how this game turns out, the story will be about Bama doing this and Bama not doing that. I have no gripes about that. Bama’s earned it over the past five seasons.
Regardless, the talk should be about:
DROPPED PASSES ON 3RD DOWNS BY WVU RECEIVERS
and
BAMA NEVER BEING FLAGGED FOR DEFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE"

... and ANOTHER no-call on Bama on that long WVU reception to end the 3rd Quarter. We’ve also caught 3 other balls while wearing Bama defensive backs like body paint... including our lone offensive TD in the 1st half.

... and ANOTHER no-call on the hard Bama hit to a defenseless WVU receiver? I don’t necessarily like some of the new "kinder, gentler" rules, but flags should be thrown for infractions. If WVU does that? 15 yards and ejection from the game.

... This game is being played on a tilted field. Mounties playing uphill both ways. I might stop watching in disgust at the officials. The young WVU receivers dropping all those passes is bad enough, but the officials wearing "Bama" and "Roll Tide" undergarments is more than I can handle. Bring on the Orioles...

... and that is that...

Iowa St is just terrible tho.


True, but I am the only one that picked NDSt to win.....hmmmmm?

I would have taken NDSU if the spread was offered, but had to go with Iowa St since I wasn’t sure NDSU would win the game outright. Oh well...

My big dog plays have sucked so far in the pick em, with the exception of WVU.

Amazing that Oregon has continued to be bet up to 54 now. I know it’s Oregon, it’s in Eugene, and they’re playing South Dakota...but jesus. Unfortunately I never saw a 1H line for that game. I would have laid 35 on that.

I didn’t understand why MSU wasn’t ranked preseason, perhaps that will be fixed now. And I hate those rednecks... But respect is due

Injuries for Wisco and their TERRIBLE QB Choice have transformed this game.

And honestly.. this is a middling SEC LSU this year.. Wisco just wrote the definition of "meltdown" in this 2nd half..

I just need them to hang on because they are covering the spread. No one cares about Wisconsin do they?
