Long ago, when dragons that spit lasers roamed the lands, Steve Perry rode pterodactyls made of knives through righteous lightning storms, and Nebraska wasn’t a laughable football program, two brothers were immaculately conceived in an 81 Datsun in the shadow of Sanford Stadium with one destiny: to return football commentary to its old form; obsessive, cruel, full of errors, and substance abuse and dick jokes. And there's John who's a Miami fan, so we were surprised he could even spell.

WEEK 8 - GAMES AND LINES

Well, since it doesn't look like people want to debate anything, let's just get right to the games this week. It's rebound week for a lot of schools, and there are surprisingly, quite a few good matchups this week. So on to the games. I'm going with 6 this week since we only got 4 last week:

1) Georgia Tech at Clemson (-7.5)
2) Texas (-7) at Nebraska
3) Iowa at Michigan (-13)
4) Boston College at Florida State (Pk...for the gambling impaired, the line is zero, so if you pick the winner, you hit the line too...so you either get 2 or 0 for this one)
5) Alabama at Tennessee -(11.5)
6) Rutgers at Pittsburgh (-6.5)

I was tempted to use the Notre Dame and UCLA game to get back at Jeezy for throwing Michigan State in the mix a few weeks ago, but bygones are bygones, and the 'Bama Tennessee rivalry intrigues me more. The Thursday night game this week is garbage (North Carolina and Virginia? Jesus) and there are few intriguing lines, but here's some for thought:

South Carolina (-3.5) at Vanderbilt
Georgia (-18) at Mississippi State
Wisconsin (-6) at Purdue

For now points stay the same, with the exception being if you don't get your picks in by kickoff of the Thursday night game, you get docked 1 point. One of us has missed every deadline so far, so there's not much mystery who this is aimed at.
