Biiiiiiiig Weekend

So, let me start off by stating that this is the finest time of year for all sports fans alike. There is no other time of year that involves college football, NFL, MLB playoffs, NHL, NBA, AND now college basketball is soon to be under way. This is sequential to my love of sports for my birthday falls right in the middle.

A little thoughts of college football. This is written on Friday, October 16 2009, which means that tomorrow is not only the Red River Shootout between OU and Texas, but the ND v. SC game. These will be two historic games that we'll all be paying attention to. Also, we'll be paying a lot of attention to the UW v. AZ game as well. At least for those who are Dawg fans. I'll Bark for Sark. I'll bark for him being Pac 10 coach of the year already. And if the Dawgs become bowl eligible (and if they become eligible lets just assume they're going to a bowl game), Sark should be crowned NCAA coach of the year. If Obama has already been crowned with a Nobel Peace Prize, there should be no gripe in predicting that Sark is giving UW more hope than ever imagined. So, I suppose they should give Sark a Nobel Peace Prize for he, too, has inspired hope in the hearts of Husky fans!

And oh yeah, if Boise State can barely handle Tulsa, what makes you think they're deserving of a No. 5 ranking?

The NBA still sucks.

The NHL is coming back strong. Thank the Lord above for Ovi and Sid the Kid for bringing that league back .

Here are my picks for the weekend:

OU v. Texas: Texas, 28-21. Bob Stoops will do his best impression of his brother...and blow it.

ND v. USC: USC in 3 OT, 44-41. Charlie Weiss' stomach will then explode...along with his ego.

Florida v. Arkansas: Florida, 55-10. Tim Tebow 55, Arkansas 10.

VT v. GT: V Tech, 27-12. Tyrod Taylor will do something that Vick never did...beat GT on the road during week 7 at night.

South Carolina v. Bama: Bama, 9-1. The 'Ol Ball Coach will actually figure out a way to score 1 point...and brag about it.

UW v. ASU: UW, 31-26. Steve Sarkeeeeesion will find another improbable, immaculate play that could only happen once in a blue moon and win in the 4th quarter...and then act like it was all a plan.

Hawai'i'i'i v. Idaho!: Idaho!, 789-24. Not sure how the Vandals will have a victory so large...but I'm sure they won't even care, it's a win.
