After a week off from the rigors of producing sadly humorless undead copy for this trash blog, I’m back. That’s right kids, Uncle Bobby is back in the heavenly saddle, and ready to give you more of what you don’t crave. This weekend continued to prove my point that the robot FSU replaced me with is an inferior substitute (that’s an econometric term for you smarties).
The U.S. finally won a Ryder Cup. We’ve been trashed by the Europeans in this competition since 1999. It only took the better part of a decade for us to win another one. So what did we learn from this? Over the past ten years, the Europeans have excelled at four man scrambles (which, consequently is the only format that Drew considers legal), while the U.S. players (who are we kidding? I’m only talking about Tiger Woods here) have been good at playing real golf.
LSU’s backup quarterback hung 182 yards and two touchdowns on Auburn’s secondary in the second half to beat the Tigers. Auburn did get a pick six off of Lee, but that’s about it. Auburn led 14 – 3 at the half, and then their defense gave up towards the end of the 3rd quarter, allowing LSU to take the win. Apparently God has a sense of humor, as LSU coach Les Miles is once again rewarded for his stupid play calls with a win.
The SEC East looks okay though, as Georgia stomped Arizona State and Florida destructificated Tennessee. Yawn. The Pac 10 (save USC) still sucks and Fat Phil keeps eating cupcakes by the gross and losing. Call me when things get interesting next weekend please.
East Carolina is a bust against NC State? Really? In overtime no less? The Pirates kept giving the Wolfpack opportunities to upset them, and NC State finally took advantage of one of them. What lost the game? Maybe when Skip Holtz channeled Lou Holtz and decided to go for it on 4th and 1 instead of taking the field goal. Oh well, Holtz has earned my respect by getting a directional school into the top 15 and having a pirate named Pinkney on his team.
