And my friend just bailed on going coming over to go out tonight. I need to be around people to distract me from this horror show. Going solo.

You told him you are watching Illinois football, didn't you?

He's probably out looking for a new friend right now.

1) Just re-read my sentence and I butchered the hell out of it
2) If Friday Night Illinois drinking games are wrong, I don't want to be right
3) Found some friends and I will be [more] drunk shortly.

Godspeed to everyone finishing this game and the football after dark featuring Arizona and UTEP.

I've never understood the continual futility of Illinois. There's no reason that they can't be as good as Wisconsin on a consistent basis and at least as good as Iowa on a sporadic basis. Tons of talent in the Chicago burbs and downstate. Only other P5 school in their state is NW. They can sell great academics.....but not so great that it can become a negative.

Arizona's QB likes playing in shorts. I'd tackle his legs every chance and if my helmet hit his knees...good.

God bless. I hate Wiscy for a lot of reasons but the city of Madison and your fans' desire to be inebriated are commendable.

When the most notable thing to come out of Wisconsin besides the badgers is "Making of a Murderer":

UTEP kicker drills a 53 yarder in his first career collegiate attempt. Would've been good from 60+.

Has Urban ever had a kicker make one from 50+ since he's been here?

Ten TV games kicking off right now. :popcorn:

Can someone explain how UL-Lafayette/A&M O/U is just 60?

Stop me from emptying every account into that over...

A&M only has one QB available; Kellen Mond. He's the one that couldn't move the offense against UCLA after Starkel was lost for the year with a knee injury. Mond started last week against Nicholls but was replaced in the second half by A&M's 3rd QB, who is also now injured. A&M only scored 24 against Nicholls last week.

ULL/A&M could legit struggle to score 40 combined.

Fuck. Stupid, reasonable response.

Update- the o/u has jumped to 63. Going under, but not emptying my entire assets.

I'm back and ready for some bad football.

Memphis 7
UCLA 0

I pondered the Tigers for my upset pick. Hope I don't regret not taking them.

Took UCLA -2.5 on the road. Wondering if I'll regret that. 2nd half team? haha

I made it through the storm, guys (literally and figuratively)! Ready to move on to Army and some better games this weekend.

Too bad we don't have power. It's like hostage camping. Everyone in our entire neighborhood has theirs back except one side of the street. Some never even lost it. Dude across the street complained about not having cable the day after. Cry me a river.

Luckily, another neighbor lent us his generator. Duke Energy had promised to have it back up by midnight--yesterday. Nope. Now it's midnight tonight (technically tomorrow, dipshits). I feel guilty about going to work today and leaving my family in the devils hotbox we call home.

We did figure out how to make a phone into a hotspot (which seems like an appropriate name). So, we can watch the 4:30 game on FOX (luckily not BTN).

Keep your fingers crossed for us!

Pathetically weak personal foul called on AF....right as they had 1st and goal....
