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.

BCS GAME PICKS

Jeezy can't get to a working computer so he called in these picks:

50 on Michigan to cover
4o on Boise State to cover

Here's my rundown:

Apparently Michigan and USC are playing a game today. Honestly, ESPN's treatment of this game has been the most shameless, irresponsible piece of journalism I've ever seen. There are FIVE BCS games this year, and to listen to ESPN, the Rose Bowl is the only one. John Saunders keeps saying it feels like a national title game, well of course it does...IT'S ALL ESPN AND ABC ARE TALKING ABOUT. I didn't even know the Oklahoma game was tonight until I saw a schedule on another website a day or two ago.

All that said, I'm not very excited about this matchup. Michigan almost always bores me to tears, as do most Big-10 teams. Michigan looked convincing in one game this year, against a wildly overrated Notre Dame team. They put up a fight against Ohio State, but it's a rivalry game, so throw it out. USC can't seem to get their shit straight. If both teams played to the apex of their talent, USC would walk away with this one. As it is, though, USC has been really really good in BCS games the past few years while Michigan, not so much.

Give me 70 on USC to cover
and I think the USC offense will show up, so give me 40 on the over

FIESTA BOWL

Boise State is in way way way way way over their heads here. I mean, waaaaaaaaaay over their heads. Oklahoma's front line outweighs Boise State by half a ton and Adrian Peterson is back for Oklahoma. Yes, I'm not wild about Peterson, and yes, he is coming back from a very prolonged absence, but he's not playing Ohio State in the title game. Ian Johnson for Boise State looks pretty good against WAC opponents, but Oklahoma makes him look dumb today. Oklahoma controls the clock and stuffs Boise State for a convincing win.

80 on Oklahoma to cover
60 on the UNDER

I've got more to say about what's been going on the past few days, but it'll have to wait for the wrap-up tomorrow.

Oh, and GLORY GLORY MARK FUCKING MAY. EAT A BIG HAIRY DICK.
