| My view from Timeout |
I was put in
“tailgate timeout” for the weekend to recover from the gauntlet I had just
completed over the first half of the season and something about fireball and
college kids and Mrs.Tailgate not approving. Normally I will not do a write up
when I am off or at a repeat stadium, however many of you sent some great pictures
that I wanted to post. I picked a fantabulous weekend to watch 30 + games on TV
starting Thursday night with VA Tech and the “Enter Sandman” phenomena in
Blacksburg, and ending with Wyoming beating Nevada at 11 PM Pacific Saturday in front of no one.
Thursday we
saw the Hokies wipe out the Canes in the same game I went to two years ago and
Boise did all it could to give the game to BYU before slipping by the Mormons
on the blue. Friday night we witnessed the Ducks and their shrinking fair weather fan base
lose a double OT heart breaker in Bezerkeley. In the whiteout at Happy Valley, Penn State
pulled off the biggest upset of the year knocking off # 2 Ohio State. Jerry
Sandusky celebrated with a bar of soap in State Penn.

The Badgers outclawed the Hawkeyes
in Kinnick stadium on a beautiful Big Ten fall day. Alabama kept a firm grip on
the #1 ranking by rolling over the Aggies in T Town.

Coach Ogre got a big win
in Death Valley at night over his former Ole Miss team. In the wildest shootout
in the west Oklahoma and Texas Tech combined for a mile + in offense. Why does
OU DC “Screaming Mike Stoops” still have a job? Can you say nepotism (see
below)?
Rutgers came close to getting a win in Minneapolis but came up 2 points shy.

Houston’s slide continues as they lose to a resurgent SMU Mustang team in the
Big D. Perhaps Coach Herman is thinking
about something else. Lamar Jackson was simply other worldly as Louisville dismantled
the Wolfpack from Raleigh. Utah outpaced the Bruins in the Rose Bowl as former
retiree Joe Williams ran for a school record 332 yards.

Has anyone
ever seen this icon from Mississippi State that goes by the name of Stingray?
Apparently he has become somewhat of a legend as the MSU Super fan whose whole
goal in life is to be on the Paul Finebaum Show. Here is a little snippet of
his brilliance:
Bieber – After stringing together four
letter words with conjunctive verbs while screaming at my TV during the
Oklahoma game, I am nominating soon to be unemployed Mike Stoops as this week’s
honoree. Lil Mikey came crawling back to big bro Bobby four years ago when he
was fired mid-season as the head coach at Arizona. Mike, brother of HC Bob, was
given the DC job 3 years ago instead of current Clemson DC Brent Veneables, one
of the best in the business. The two years after Brent left he faced his former
team and dismantled them. Clearly the worst move in Oklahoma since the land
grabbers jumped the gun back in 1889. If
you watch Mike on game day, it is clear he has not prepared his troops for
battle as he spends the entire game screaming like a German General as the Allies
advanced on the Fatherland. For three years we have watched him build up to his
crowning achievement and finally it arrived. Saturday night in Lubbock, was a
spectacle for the whole world to view. I have seen powderpuff football girls
cover better and tackle better than Mike’s elite defensive troops. Do you not
teach fundamentals anymore? Tackling is not that difficult. Lil Mikey proceeded
to join his counterpart from TTU in setting the NCAA defensive futility record
by each team allowing 854 yards of offense and a combined 119 points. Bob, it’s
kind of hard to ignore the elephant in the room this time. Time to tell little
brother to go make some new friends and take his Bieber trophy with him!
Next Week – The battle of Danville Friday
night under the lights as Monte Vista hosts crosstown rival San Ramon Valley.
Possibly will go to San Jose State v UNLV game as the designated driver!
Happy
Tailgating!
