40 Lb Box of Rape


Each week, various media outlets and blogs, including this one, highlight the most exciting games of the week. This is like the opposite of that. 40 lb box of rape is a weekly feature where we pick out the most lopsided game of the week where “surprise sex” is the most likely outcome.

This week’s raping belongs to the Akron Zips, who will be violated by #13 Wisconsin. While not the heaviest spread of the week (that honor belongs to Hawaii, who is a 36 point underdog to Florida), the Zips (what the hell is a “zip” anyway?) are in the running as the Badgers are favored by 26 points. In addition to being outright terrible, Akron has been plagued with injuries and has the misfortune to have their entire secondary being first time starters.

On the other hand, Wisconsin has a solid defense that carries over from last year, and an improved offense that should be able to put more points on the board than they did last year. You can catch this gem tomorrow at noon, provided that any channel in your market is bold enough to carry this pigskin equivalent of a snuff film.

I love the new weekly highlight. I got one for you. Here's one for you to consider for runner-up. The first team consists of 16 wild boneless wings, three pitchers of beer, and two irish carbombs vs. My lower gi track. The loser in this game unfortunately was my toilet, not a pretty sight. Wes
