If anyone is bored as shit this Mizzou State/New Mexico State game has a little CheezIt zest to it.

Teams are god awful and they are just lobbing arm punt/ints back and forth to each other at a pretty entertaining pace. Lots of penalties to boot.

So bad it might be good.

Thanks for this Saturday's line-up. Gotta figure out which ones to spend time on, rather than going outside to butcher the rose bushes. Couple of obvious 'scouting' opportunities, A&M being one. Don't really give a rip for Xichigan v Xichigan St, except would like to see Sparty escape their doldrums and rise up, like they used to do against tOSU. Keep it coming, and thanks for the playoff implications, don't have to think....
