Ouch!

Though the following few paragraphs will be tough to write, I guess I have to recap last week’s selections.

It was a painful weekend. My head still hurts.

On Friday night, I had South Florida -3.5. They won by 3.

I had Akron plus seven versus Ball State. The Fighting Lettermans won 41-24.

I had Graham Harrell and Texas Tech minus 36.5 at home against SMU. Texas Tech won, 43-7.

Kentucky (-13,5) missed three field goals and had another blocked as they stumbled past Middle Tennessee, 20-14.

And, to cap off the horror, Iowa (-13.5) stopped Iowa State inside the Hawkeye five-yard line to maintain its 17-3 lead. With time running out, the Hawkeyes ran the quarterback into the line three times to keep the clock going, then lined up to punt. With just over a minute left and up two touchdowns, genius Iowa Head Coach Kirk Frerentz has his punter run out of the end zone! Why in the holy name of Nile Kinnick would he do that up TWO touchdowns?!?!

To make my head hurt, I guess.

So, we lose two games by the hook and another because the head coach isn't smart enough to know that big money alums wager, too.

Frerentz is toast! Bank it!

So there you have it. Had it not been for UConn’s 45-10 drilling of Virginia yours truly would have been shutout last week. As it is, I was 1-5 and stand at 13-13 on the year and past due for some winners.

Pass the Tylenol.
