BRFL Week 12 Results


SockPuppet. Texas pulls away from the Cyclones in Ames. Texas 26, Iowa State 16. Ten win season for the Longhorns. SockPuppet still in the hunt. 1 for the win. 1 for the no drop. No love. +25 on the seasons, #7 AP.

Lola. LSU keel-hauls Georgia State 56 -14 @ home in a classic late season, SEC payday game. It doesn't get easier than this. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +1 from the AP (I can't explain it either), +3 on the weekend ... out of the darkness. Into the light. Zero on the year. #14 AP.

BreauxFreaux. Texas Tech by a whisker, TTech 24, UCF 23 in Lubbock, TX. +1 for the win. The Breaux works his way up to +6 on the season. Unranked AP.


Timmy! Notre Dame decimates Wake Forest, 45 - 7 in South Bend. Hard to know what to think about the Irish. But the AP feels LOVE. 1 for the win. 1 for the no drop. +3 from the AP. +5 weekend. +13 on the season. #17 AP.

Snottie. Oregon pulls into Tempe and flattens Arizona State 49 - 13. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop. +30 on the season and Mr. Snot is the new leader. Bo Nix 6 TDs. CFP for the Ducks? 

DPo. Wisco has a little left in the tank. But, well, Nebraska. Bucky Badger 24, Cornhuskers 17. +1 for the win. Minus 4 on the season. 

Chiba Chews. Dang. Clemson puts the wood to North Carolina 31 - 20 and, thank GOD, we were at least spared an embarrassing Dabo Diddle. 1 for the win. That's it, Bitch. 1. Minus 16 on the year. Has Clemson finally got their shit straight? Dunno!

Q. USC has entered Total Capitulation Mode. The Troymen take a knee at home  to UCLA, Bruins 38, USC 20. Zero. Q makes a nest in last place, minus 18. It's just horrible.

McLovin. Ohio State guts the Golden Gophers in The Shoe, 37 - 3. Minnesota kicks a moon-shot FG in the fourth quarter against the Buckeye freshmen to avoid the shut-out. Bullshit move? You bet it was. Bucks jump scUM in the AP. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +1 from the AP. The Lovin at +14 on the season, #2 AP.

$$uke. The Dream dies in Corvallis. UWashington 22, Beavs 20. I have no words. Except that losing by a safety is a terrible nut-punch to live with for the rest of my life. AP puts the fucking wood to my Beaver (-5) and I'm down to +20 on the year, #15 AP. Shit. 

KBron. Ole Miss beats up on the University of Louisiana Monroe 35 -3 in Oxford. Late season pay-day game much? 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, Paul-Finebaum-SEC +1 for-no-reason-at-all from the AP, +3 weekend, BronieBoy nippin' at Snottie's heels with +29 on the season, #12 AP.


DogTheBountyHunter. Kansas State 31 over Kansas 27 in Lawrence. This is a big time rally for The Dog. 1 for the win, sure. 1 for the no drop, of course. But fucking +4 from the AP?! Wow. +6, an epic Wildcat weekend. Suddenly it's +6 on the season for DTBH and #19 AP. Sizzlin'.

Ronde'. Tulane 24, Florida Atlantic 8, in Boca Raton. I thought this was a quality conference win but the AP says, fuck you, Lance. 1 for the win. Minus 1 from the AP (no reason given) and the weekend is a wash for Rondude. +22 on the season. #18 AP.

CCS. Oklahoma entertains a bunch of crazed Mormons and does enough to get the Dub. Sooners 31, Cougars 24. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +1 for the move up. Huh? It was BYU, in Norman. Fuck it. Whatever. +3 weekend. +24 on the season. #13 AP.

GG Week 13 Games

 It's Hate Week. 


Friday, 11/24, UTSA RoadRunners @ Tulane, 3:30 abc network, New Orleans, LA. Think I'm full of shit? Fuck you. Neither team has lost since September. This is like an unofficial Conference Championship game, Bitches. So dig deep. Who do you see taking The Cheese? The boys from San Antonio or the Green Wave? Perfect day-after-Thanksgiving game. Thank you. 

Saturday, 11/25. Ohio State @ Meechy, noon, FOX, Ann Arbor, MI. This game has already been hyped to death. Weather is supposed to suck.

Saturday, 11/25, Florida State @ Florida, 7 PM, ESPN, Gainesville, FLA. Normally I would have skipped over this game. But Florida State lost their QB last week. Florida's QB also injured. Florida is a 6.5 point dog at home at this writing. You make the call.

Roll the bones, My People.

GG Week 12 Results

 


Clemson over fading UNC, 31 - 20 in Columbia, SC. I thought Chiba might get a Diddle out of this. It pains me to say it but Dumbo's Dicks from down south are makin' some noise here toward the ass end of the season.

Washington over Oregon State, 22 - 20 in Corvallis, in the rain. Beavers actually seemed like the better team but a first half safety is the margin of victory and the Huskies make a pretty solid argument to be in the CFP. I could try to say something witty about Huskies pounding beaver but I will refrain.

Red hot Arizona obliterates a beat up Utah squad in Tucson, 42 - 18, the blow out win. 

SockPuppet. 1 to go to 28. Fine. Make shitty picks, 'Billy'.
Lola. a deuce moves you up to 25. Meh.
Breaux. 2 to go to 26. Not dominant.
Timmy!. 2 to go to 21 which is, like, bad.
Snottie. 1 to go to 29. Costly slip up, here, Snot?
DPo. 2 to go to 32. Hey, good for you. A reason to keep living. @nd place in GG.
Chiba. 2 to go to 27, Clemson Boy.
Q. 1 to go to 30. ONE.
McLovin. 1 to go to 28. Turd.
$$uke. 2 to go to 25. Small Turd.
KBron. 2 to go to 22. I keep waiting for you to take this contest seriously.
DTBH. 0. 17 total. I feel like I don't know you anymore. What's your problem?
Ronde'. SWEEP! This fucker. 5 to go to 33. The new leader.. 
CCS. SWEEP! Asshole. 5 to go to 30.


Rivalry Week coming up.

GG Week 12 Games


The Commissioner always feels a bit like a failure when there are a lot of SWEEPS in GG. 
Did I make bad picks? Too easy? Multi-multi SWEEP weekends  have happened twice this season.
That's not good enough.
Soul searching is what's going on at BRFL HQ right now. 
Let's see how it goes this weekend, Slaves.

Utah Utes (#16 AP) at Arizona Wildcats (#19 AP). Time and broadcast to be determined. Tucson, AZ.

U of North Carolina (AP #22) at Clemson (unranked). 3:30, ESPN, Clemson, SC.

Washington (AP #5) at Oregon State (AP #10). 7:30 PM, ABC. Corvallis, Oregon.


Roll the bones.

SockPuppet. Texas subdues TCU 29 - 26 on the road. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop. 23 total. #7 AP.

Lola. LSU pummels Florida 52 -35. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +3 AP love and it's +5 on the weekend. Minus 3 total. 

BreauxFreaux. Texas Tech upsets Kansas 16 - 13 on the road. There may be a Diddle out there with the Red Raider's name on it. 1 for the win. +5 total.

Timmy! BYE week. Best possible outcome. 1 for the no drop. +2 (?!) AP love, +3 weekend for staying home and doing nothing. +8 on the season. #20 AP.

Snottie. Oregon dumps the Troymen. Oregon 36, USC 27 in Autzen Stadium. 1 for the win. 1 for the no drop, 28 total, #6 AP. Snottie takes the lead in the BRFL.

DPo. Things go from bad to worse. Lowly Northwestern blasts Wisconsin in Madison, 24 - 10. Zero. Minus 5 on the season. Wisconsin looked like a great pick. That was long ago.

Chiba. Dildo Swinney delivers again. Clemson 42 over Georgia Tech 21. 1 for the win. Move to minus 17. Maybe you're not totally screwed. 

Q. You've hit bottom. Oregon 36, USC 27 and another loss doesn't really matter. You get zero. You stay at minus 18. That's last place. 

McLovin. Ohio State beats up on a beleaguered Meechy State squad, 38 - 3, in Columbus. It's a mismatch and a bloodbath and the AP doesn't really give a shit. 1 for the win. 1 for the no drop. You reach double figures. +11. 

$$uke. Oregon State obliterates Stanford 62 - 17. Damien Martinez runs for 4 TDs. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, AP says, 'hell, yeah!" and tacks on 2 more. + 25 on the year, #10 AP. Don't come to Corvallis.

KBron. Georgia takes Ole Miss out behind the woodshed. Bulldogs 52, Rebs 17. Minus 3 from the AP. The Bronie gives up the lead. +26 on the year, #13 AP.


DogTheBountyHunter. Kansas State pounds Baylor in Manhattan, Kansas, 59 - 25 and it's 1 for the win, +2 for landing at #23 in the Almighty AP and, yes, DIDDLE!DIDDLE!DIDDLE!, +5 more. + 8 weekend for DTBH and, congratulations, you've reached 0 on the year. Out of the Darkness, into the Light. 

Ronde'. The Green Wave over the Tulsa Golden Hurricanes in a close one, 24 - 22 and the AP is paying attention. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +3 from the AP. +5 weekend. +22 on the season, #17 AP. 

CCS. Oklahoma stops the bleeding. The Sooners deliver a spanking to the Mountaineers: Oklahoma 59, West Virginia 20, in Norman. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +3 from the AP, +5 weekend, +21 on the season and #14 AP.

We're headed to Week 12.

GG Week 11 Results

Damn, Stalions, I just can't quit  you.

 The Evil Wolverine Conspiracy, sans Jim Harbaugh, dumps perennial punching bag Penn State 24 - 15 in Beaver Stadium. Harbs is placed on double secret probation. Meechy president Yoko Ono protests and, well, everybody just lawyer up and let's act like the Wolverines really need Jimmy stalking the sideline, acting crazy and throwing his clipboard. 

Missouri humbles Tennessee 36 - 7. Why did anybody pick Tennessee to win this game? Mizzou is the real deal. 

Georgia schools Ole Miss, 52 - 17. Joey Freshwater's SEC West dreams curdle into pig snot. Oh well. 

SockPuppet. SWEEP! 5 to go to 27.
Lola. SWEEP! 5 to go to 23.
BreauxFreaux. Tennessee? 2 to go to 24. Pray for redemption.
Timmy! Another Tennessee man. 2 to go to 19.
Snottie. SWEEP! 5 to go to 28. Which is pretty good considering how he's burning up the BRFL.
DPo. SWEEP! 5 to take the  leap to 30 and the lead. 
Chiba. SWEEP! Take 5 to make it 25, Cheebs.
Q. SWEEP! It's 5 plus 24 to make 29. That's more than Snottie has.
McLovin. A true Meechy hater. Picked PSU. 2 to go to 27.
$$uke. SWEEP! 5 to go to 23. 
KBron. Homer pick let's you down. 2 to go to 20.
DogTheBountyHunter. Tennessee. 2 to go to 17.
Ronde'. SWEEP! 5  and 23 makes 28.
CCS. SWEEP! 5 and 20 gives you 25.

BRFL Week 10 Results


SockPuppet:  Texas outlasts Kansas State in Austin, 33 - 30. Um ... KSU is not that good. Anyway. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop. +2 weekend, +21 BRFL, #7 AP.

Lola: Geez. Alabama carpet bombs LSU 42 - 28. This was your chance for glory and Brian Kelly let you down. Never forget that. Brian Kelly is not a good person. AP drops you 5 spots and now you have minus 8 on the season and are ranked #18 in the AP. 

BreauxFreaux. Texas Tech Red Raiders don't know how to quit. In Lubbock, it's TTech 35, TCU 28. What the fuck happened to TCU? They just suck. Oh, well. 1 for the win, Breaux and you climb to +4 on the season.


Timmy! Oh, the humanity! ND goes to Clemson and, suddenly, Clemson looks like they know what they're going. They're hanging the 'L' on ND, 31 - 23. This one hurts because the AP has apperently had enough of this shit and drops you 10. You cling to +5 BRFL, #22 AP.

Snottie. Just another 3-alarm blitzkrieg by the Ducks, this time annihilating a sub-par Cal squad to the tune of 63 - 19. Oregon will be the best team to not go to the CFP probably. 1 for the win. 1 for the no drop, gives you +26 on the season and #6 AP.

DPo. Did this really happen? Indiana takes down Wisconsin, in HoosierLand, 20 - 14. Tom Allen makes a lot of noise about how the Hoosier's success is 'just due to the culture' and 'these kids just keep fighting' but mainly it was because bell-cow RB Braelon Edwards didn't play for Bucky Badger. 0 on the weekend and minus 5 on the season. 


Chiba. Finally, Clemson gets their act together. We've been over this. Clemson 31, Notre Dame 23. It ain't much but it's somethin'. +1 for the win. Minus 18 on the season.

Q. USC continues to implode. Defensive coordinator, Alex Grinch, gets the axe. Heisman winner Caleb Williams sobs like a baby. It's a little embarrassing. If you're an Oklahoma fan you love to see it. Washington bombards defenseless USC and it's Huskies 52, Trojans 42 at the end of the final stanza. This was a home game for USC. Like it matters. REAM! You started at minus 12. You were ranked #24 AP (why you were ranked, I don't know. You keep losing). So, altogether, it's a minus 6 weekend and you're in Chiba-World, @ minus 18. (Correction courtesy CCS in Accounting).

McLovin. In Piscataway, NJ, the Silver Bullets roll on. Ohio State 35, Rutgers 16.Special Teams for the Buckeyes do a lot of dumb shit, the offense throws a lot of check down passes and prays for YAC and the defense saves the day. Typical Ohio State weeekend. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +9 on the season. Still #3 AP.


$$uke. Oregon State 26, Colorado 19, in Fort Collins or where ever. Period. Something about this impresses the hell out of the AP. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, +4 for the move up. +6 weekend, +21 in the BRFL, #12 AP.

KBron. Ole Miss hands it to Jimbo Fisher, 38 -35 in Oxford. Has Jimbo Fisher won a game this year? Dunno! But he was no match for the Runnin' Rebs. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, 1 for the move up, +3 weekend, +29 on the season and #10 AP. We have a new Leader. 


DogTheBountyHunter. Kansas State gives Texas a scare but comes up short. 33 - 30, Texas. We've been over this. Is KSU going to be bowl eligible? REAM! I didn't realize this but KSU went into Austin ranked #23 AP. That's minus 2 on the way out the trap door and minus 5 for the REAM!, landing you in a world of pain at minus 8. Correction, again, courtesy of CCS in the back office.

Ronde'. The Green Wave rolls over East Carolina on the road : Tulane 13, East Carolina 10. 1 for the win, 1 for the no drop, 1 for the move up in the AP. +3 weekend. +17 on the season. #20 AP. Ronde' makin' some noise.

CCS. Oh, God. It's all falling apart. The last edition of Bedlam for quite some time happened to be in T. Boone Pickens stadium. I've warned people about That Place. The stands come right up to the field. It resembles a gladiator pit crossed with a cage match. And then there are the Poke sticks. Colorfully decorated cricket bats that Okie State fans slam on the concrete slab 10 feet from the field all...game...long. Oklahoma State 27, Oklahoma 24. The AP is merciless, dropping the Sooners 7. CCS is left with +16 and AP #17. Apocalyptic.

GG Week 10 Results

LSU takes the 'L' in Tuscaloosa as the Tide whups up on Brian Kelly's Bengals, 42 - 28.

Threat Level


 

'What down is it? Where's Connor?'

The Threat Level remains extremely SEVERE, though things have taken an awkward turn*. 
Let's see how the B1G 10 can completely fuck this shit show up so that everything gets exponentially worse. I have faith they can do it.
