The Golf Prick rankings for this week haven’t been as high since Steve Spurrier was wrecking shit in the golf course mecca of Florida. Be sure to check the weekly blogpoll.
1. Bob Stoops - takes the top spot with a #2 team ranking
2. Gary Pinkel - making a strong appearance at #3
3. Urban Meyer - he rolls without the visor, but all the other pieces are there
4. Steve Spurrier - the Don, the Godfather of Golf Pricks, makes a long awaited debut at #21 after a summer of crushing the beautiful links of the South Carolina coast
Keep an Eye on: Mike Gundy, the new 4-2-5 passed its first test on the road at Washington State, Gundy added another concho to his belt
A severe lack of depth after the top 5, but the GP Nation hopes to ring up it’s 4th National Title this year.

Two words that basketball Tigers should learn: Le Moyne. What is a Le Moyne? For those who don’t know, Le Moyne is the Division II team that beat Syracuse the other night. Sure it was an exhibition game, but that is embarrassing. No evidence that Quin was wearing a Jim Boheim costume for Halloween.

I am very confident in getting a win tomorrow. Gabbert seems pretty healthy, the defense has been playing well, and we’re at home. The weather is supposed to be great and only GA single seat tickets remain. Everything’s coming up Mizzou.
I do think Art Briles is a good coach, though, and I

They definitely will. Don’t count on that and just be happy if we don’t get beat by them on the other end.
Off topic, but Jesse Newell has another breakdown posted, this time of Tech’s touchdowns on draw plays. Good stuff and I remember noticing Stuckey get blocked by the umpire. Son of a bitch!

So if you didn’t already know that the breakeven point for playing against standard 10% juice is winning 52.38% of your plays, then you do now after yesterday’s post. To make money, you need to win more than 11 out of every 21 plays on a unit basis. Doesn’t sound all that difficult

aTm is 5-0 when they are ignored by TV, and 0-3 when the red light comes on. There is a joke in there somewhere.
Schroedinger’s aggies?
But they’re only on FCS Central vs. Colorado, so I guess they’ll be zombie aggies, now.

Special teams will play a big part in tomorrow’s game. Tomorrow would be a great time for our return units to get on track.

2 of those games are rivalry games so I expect those teams to play better than their average game. Let’s say ksu, neb, and mu play “good” games. What makes you think KU’s “good” game is better than theirs? At the beginning of the year I think we’d all agree that KU’s

You should really stop doing that.
Hiphopopotamus commented on the blog post He Said What? 52 minutes ago
Do you really think we need to play “great” in order to beat KSU, NU & MU?
Better, yes. But I’ve seen far less than “great” performances beat all of those teams.

As we’ve discussed, the Wildcats have realtively pedestrian units, both on offense and defense. There are a few other things we haven’t discussed, however, that could make a big difference tomorrow.
Kickoffs
I don’t think we can afford to kick a single ball to Banks. If we have a wind behind us, by all means

I absolutely think we should have been better than OU. They were missing 2 of their top players in Bradford and Gresham. If we’re not going to beat them at home, while their injured, then when are we?
I think the main thing in the article was, CAN Mangino take us to an elite

Rubbing Shit in Hair,
“Breakdown” is a noun. You used the verb phrase “break down,” which should be two words.

I can’t help but be completely bummed about the fact that Robert Griffin III will not be on the field tomorrow. Bummed enough that it is hard to write a preview.
Theoretically, Baylor should not be much competition. They’ve got a poor run defense, and next to no offense. This should

No one looks quite as awesome in HD as George O’Leary.

I think the Horns continue to improve their resume Saturday against George O’Leary.
Who will be keeping an eye on Brandon Spikes this Saturday?

“Jesus, this place gets Kafka allusions in the posts but then cursory comprehension of English in the comments.”
If it makes you feel any better, I didn’t get the Kafka allusions either. Once we stray too far from the foosball I start to get kind of lost.

I like Harbaugh a lot as well and will be shocked if he is not coaching Michigan in the next 5 years.
It’s probably gonna take at least that long for U-M to get over him ripping the school for its academic standards for athletes. But, it wouldn’t be like UK deciding after two years of

Excellent stuff, General. For all the stuff that coaches preach, including Barnes, about being accountable and doing your job, the idea that Texas runs the Phoenix offense is lip service to what that really means. To Texas, it has meant freelancing and (for the most part) first guy that gets open or can get his

I’m not sure I’d call Fitzgerald undersized, but I do think this is a team we can hit the edge against (if Jake is running well) and move the pile on (if Toben is running well). Not impressed with their linebackers.

I’m with you Ben.
I suppose if we were to go winless the rest of the way and finish 5-7, then maybe you start evaluating seriously next year. In the After Todd era.
But my original feelings remain the same:
1. I’m not convinced we could hire anyone better.
2. Even if we could, I think itSHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: ””, url: ”” });
