Things I think I think

1. I think I think Texas Tech's win against Texas might have been one of the best second halves of football I've ever seen. Who wasn't amused by the TT fans charging the field after the TD, then being herded off? And charging the field after the PAT, and being herded off. Remember kids, don't hit the field until the clock strikes 0:00.

Good for the Red Raiders. And good for eccentric Mike Leach. College coaching needs more characters, instead of the coachbots who seem to have no interests outside of football.

2. Many bitter fans of Houston Nutt saw last Saturday's game against Tulsa and Gus Mal-a-zhan as a referendum on whether Frank Broyles was right when he said the hurry-up, no-huddle offense would work in the SEC. They gleefully danced a jig when Arkansas escaped with a win.

Of course, it was not a referendum on the HUNH. It was, however, one on the emptiness of the cupboard Nutt left.

3. Arkansas fans on the infamous message boards and sports talk radio shows were excited to hear Phil Fulmer was fired at Tennessee. I wonder if they'll be that excited to play the Vols if Will Muschamp is the head coach and Mal-a-zhan is the offensive coordinator?

4. I think your Halloween costume wasn't as good as this one ...

Magic 8 Ball Prediction

Another week, another loss for M8B as Arkansas covered the spread (and won outright) against Tulsa.

M8B, Arkansas is getting 10 points against South Carolina, so if a bettor was to take Arkansas and the points would it be a winning bet?
