All of three interesting games this week, all done by 7 p.m. EDT. And that's stretching it a bit with Indiana-Penn State in the "interesting" category.

Short of the year

EDIT: OMG the post-credits scene

I wish the Mississippi State ledger would have been SEC games only so you could have had a string of 16 Ls in a row before the W.

I thought happiness was Lubbock, Texas, in my rear-view mirror.

The post-credit scenes have been a great addition.

I thought happiness was Lubbock, Texas, in my rear-view mirror.

Considered, but felt a little too obvious.

Also been trying to get away from duplicating the College Gameday site but slim pickings the last couple of weeks.

Seeing No. 2 Indiana is like those days of '07 when it was No. 2 South Florida.

 

[dixiehack]

OK, they belong.

 

[TigerVols]

OK, they belong.

I love that the school paper did that (assuming that's what OU Daily is)

Romi have a comment ?

I think most SEC fans would feel that made up for the YouTube outage.

 

[BTExpress]

They're making a habit out of the encore joke(s) now.

Pretty soon they're going to need to have Ferris Bueller showing up in his bathrobe and telling everyone to go home, it's over.

 

[Meat Slapping Sound]

I know I'm in the minority here ... but the Vandy Pimp jokes felt forced this week.

 

[BTExpress]

I'm guessing most felt that way. The character may have a little more staying power in the long term, but anything more in 2025 is shark jumping. There's not a pimp-strut worthy victory left on their schedule, though I'm sure they'll be happy to finish the Yahtzee of every SEC opponent scoring 30+ against Tennessee.
