Our opening offensive play - a 58 yard broken play McCoy TD pass to Jordan Shipley - told us all we needed to know about the eventual outcome of the game, the quality of Iowa St, the bizarre consistency of a Gene Chizik defense, the current state of our offense, and the unyielding inanity of […]
How exciting!
Current weather forecast for Ames says 53 degrees and raining.
Current football forecast for Iowa State says 85 players and sucking.
Corn fed chicks. Too bad you can’t make meth out of corn.

Had to change the title yet again as my local won’t take my action after last week’s domination. 4-1-1 in posted plays, with the only blemish being the Texas/OU loss which was a reverse psychology ploy to try to get the boys fired up. Unfortunately, Jamal Charles thought I was serious and did […]
Missouri - Nothing about Missouri that we didn’t know before the season. Great offense, bad defense. They’ve yet to lose one they shouldn’t, but Gary Pinkel is still their coach. At Oklahoma this week should tell them how good they really are. They get Tech and A&M at home in what will be shootouts, but […]
Gaining some momentum, I’m now a solid 14-10-2 overall and a perfect 4-0 on double unit plays. Up 8 units minus juice ain’t too shabby.
All plays 1 unit unless stated otherwise. Here are the plays.
Southern Miss +11 @ Boise State. Yes, I realize this game is being played on the smurf turf, but this isn’t […]
Well, I’m 9-8-1 overall but 3-0 on double unit plays for a decent +4 units for the year. It’s been a below average run, but I’m still making money. The good news is that I really, really like this week’s card. I like it more than Chooky likes frosted tipped boy bands, […]
First Game Jitters for the new starting QBs?
Breaking in a new QB is supposed to pose problems early in the year. The four newcomers were 4-0 and won by a cumulative margin of 159 points.
Sam Bradford Oklahoma 21 for 23, 363 yards, 3 TDs, W by 69
Todd Reesing Kansas 20 for 29, 261 yards, 4 […]
I live by the Golden Rule: “He who has the gold sets the rules”.
Apparently, the stewards of the NCAA agree with me.
The BCS schools (members of the ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac Ten, SEC and Notre Dame) average about $12M PROFIT per year from football while Bowl […]
