The Big 5 College Football Games of Week 7


Welcome to fun week, where every team is basically playing a big game.

5. Cincinnati Bearcats at South Florida Bulls
The Bearcats are a sneaky team that could run the table and with a lot of chips falling in their favor find their way into the BCS title. Granted they would get pummeled in the game, but they could get there. This week is arguably their biggest challenge, headed to face their old DC and the South Florida Bulls. Do they win? The Pick: Bearcats by 3

4. Southern California Trojans at Notre Dame Fighting Irish
I mention this game not just for the fact that the two are ranked but partially because its fun saying Notre Dame is going to get crunched. Jimmy Clausen is having a good year, but not after Taylor Mays breaks him in two. The Pick: Trojans by 17

3. Virginia Tech Hokies at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
Just ask the Jets what some classic rushing football can do to a "good" defense, VaTech. The issue? Their defense sucks. The Pick: Hokies by 13.

2. South Carolina Gamecocks at Alabama Crimson Tide
The Gamecocks have looked impressive in their past few weeks and one could say this is a big challenge for evil Nick. I just don't see it. Alabama's D and rush attack is just too mighty right now. The Pick: Tide by 13

1. Oklahoma Sooners vs Texas Longhorns in Dallas
It's not often that two teams playing each other are in search of blood thirst quenching revenge, but the Red River Shootout brings it this year. The Sooners want revenge on their only regular season loss last year while the Longhorns want to beat the shit out of the Sooners after they stole their spot in the BCS title game via a three wayt split. This game is awesome, and I'm pumped Bradford is back, as for the pick, we're going for the upset and Stoops revenge.The Pick: Sooners by 6.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
