ESPN has got to be giving this one some moniker so I’ll join…”Slap yo Wife and Sit Down Sattaday!”

There are quite a few games this weekend for you to veg  out on. Strangely missing is the “where’s my gun” hoopla of the Red River Shootout. One you KNOW the four letter was planning since January 9, 2009. That was supposed to be THE game of the regular season. Like one of those fish you win that the Texas State Fair it went belly up in less than a week.

Missing the cut:

4) #22 South Carolina @ #2 Aaaaaaaaalabama- If Stephen Orr Spurrier wants to really stick his legacy to the wall of the stall that is South Cak football he’s gotta win this one. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaalabama is pretty good. Godspeed young Spurrier…Godspeed. (Bama big)

3) #8 Virginia Tech @ #17 Georgia Tech- Just a little lawyer math…Miami lost to Virginia Tech by 24…Georgia Tech lost to Miami by 16…Therefore Virginia Tech will win this game by 40..Minimum. I’m so sure about it that I beg you to go to your local Italian deli, get the guy behind the counter to let you in the backroom, and put everything you own on Va Tech winning by that margin.

2) #6 USC @ #25Notre Dame- I’ve seen several people pick the Irish to win this game. I’m sure they’re basing it on some stupid reasoning like…Matt Barkley is a freshman (never mind that he won at Ohio State)…Stafon Johnson is missing…or just going on a whim…I’m positive it’s not because the Irish haven’t kept this within 20 the last three years. The always cunning Irish have modeled their turf after the third cut at Augusta National which might keep this close for a half.

1) #20 Oklahoma vs. #3 Texas- Had it not been for some Mormons and some Convicts this would be the biggest game in 72,000 years (until ya know…the BCS championship). That’s a fart in the wind now. You still can’t doubt this one, even with two losses Oklahoma is right there in the Big 12 Championship race, and a win here will probably get them another birth to the Big 12 Championship. Texas hasn’t really played anyone and Colt McCoy hasn’t looked too hot…well at least his play.

#8 CINCINNATI AND #21 USF

The Players To Watch:

Cincy: Tony Pike - Slowly the Hesiman hype has started to build for this guy. He’s a pretty good quarterback who has done nothing but win at UC, a place that was once considered a dub-ya on everyone’s schedule. This is the best defense he’ll see to date and they’re going to come after him.

USF: George Selvie- Beastman…The guy preys on opposing QBs, overpowers linemen and shits in the woods. Everything you’d expect a half beast, half man turned football player to do.

The Story:

The only game featuring two undefeated teams this weekend, plus they’re two pretty solid teams. USF is notorious for believing that the season only lasts six games. It has never been more obvious as the pollsters are very cautious about throwing them up too high without seeing them make it to that mark. Cincy is THE BEST TEAM in Ohio* and defending Big East champs and has a great defense that was coming off replacing 10 starters from last year’s team.

Not So Fast My Friend:

USF has played NOBODY thus far. Two I-AA turds? A potential third if you count Western Kentucky, who is winless in their first full season as a full I-A school. There is a sloppy win over Syracuse, thanks to Greg Paulus showing us why he was benched at Duke…and the program changer over a 2-4 FSU team…

The Predicition:

Jim Leavitt will look like Beaker from the Muppets…and…Cincy 21 – USF 14…
