College Football Wednesday.. Because anything is better than the NBA

I just realized the NBA season started yesterday. Well, onto football.

Virginia Tech @ GA Tech -2.5. I must reiterate this point until the refs stop cheating... Do NOT bet against a home team on the East Coast on a Thursday night, be it ACC, Big East, Little 10 conference, whatever. Why would it not be rigged? Great point, ME. Let's just pretend stats don't matter for a minute... oh wait, they don't. Don't take a NO. 13 team when the oddsmakers are giving them points, it's a cardinal rule.

Vanderbilt +14 @ Florida. Why is no one giving this Vandy team any respect? The only blowout game they've encountered is at a tough Auburn stadium when they were unprepared. I realize the Swamp is a tough place to play, but Florida has only stepped up to competition that is "better" than them. Gator boots it is.

Texas @ Oklahoma State +3. Colt McCoy has been laid out more times this season than Willie's mom in a meat packing plant. This trend will continue where OSU plays well at home.

Kansas State -14 @ Iowa State. Don't overlook this game, where the sheep lovers will venture into Ames, where Corn Cobs, not diamonds, are a girl's best friend. ISU played OU hard, but don't count on it again.

Mizzou -3.5 @ Colorado. I really, really like this one, which means you shouldn't. The Mizzou team is strong & focused while Colorado just randomly beats people, which has moved the line down. This will be a very predictable game, with the total being under 57 also... Mizzou 34-20.

Just for kicks, Nebraksa +18.5 @ Kansas. Kansas will score 31. It's just up to Nebraska to score 1 TD and 2 field goals.

Why is the NBA season so damn long anyways? Now that we are the end of October, the BEST month of the year by far, they've decided to ruin the rest of the fall by showing basketball. If I wanted to see this many bricks I would build a damn house. Don't get me started on the WNBA, either. The NBA was thankful that it lost the 'worst league' designation when that travesty started up. I'm about to switch to the English Cricket Tour on ESPN 15.

Another column, perhaps funnier, hopefully coming tomorrow.
