The only picks by an actual Indiana grad who prefers Indiana football to Indiana basketball. It's an acquired taste.
What I'm watching this week (with my dad edition):
12 pm - Indiana at Iowa - I guess so my Hawkeye-fan dad can watch with me and make snarky comments the whole time. ...

So Oklahoma won the Red River Shootout 55-17 at the Cotton Bowl. The end of the game featured a completely full OU half of the stadium and a mostly-empty Texas half of the stadium once OU was obviously up for good, which was sometime in the second quarter.
I don't know ...

What I'm watching on Saturday:
12 pm - San Diego State at Michigan: We'll see if SDSU can handle Denard Robinson or not. If French literature has taught me anything, it's that revenge is a great motivating factor. Then again, a lot of the SDSU players probably have positive memories of ...

It's the smart play. Oklahoma was always smarter.
As predicted, Texas's sweetheart deal with the Big XII pissed off one of the other heads of the five families. Now, in return for staying in the conference, they want some "reforms" to the Longhorn Network involving high school sports and some other ...

Bob Stoops has been Oklahoma's head coach since 1999 and it looks like he's going to be there a whole lot longer. On Monday the 51-year-old coach was rewarded with a seven-year, $34.5 million extension that will keep him in charge of the Sooners through 2018.

Pitt/'Cuse make the mediocre slightly mediocre-er

College football in the state of Indiana is just fine, thank you.
You can shut up if you're about to say that Notre Dame, Indiana, and Purdue only beat one FBS team between them on Saturday. They're still 3-0 on the weekend, f**kers. And yes, I went back on my word ...

What I'm watching this weekend (and notice how I'm not watching Indiana this week because I'm boycotting any game in which we play a 1-AA squad):
12 pm ET - Don't bother with the noon games this week unless you're an alumni. I'm thinking I'll take a nap. Oh hey, DVR'd ...
