11 am - two games to flip between a) clash of the unbeatens in the Big 12, Kansas vs Kansas State. Kansas has played a cupcake schedule and been at home every game. Willie and Friends lost to Auburn, which Florida has also done. Prediction: Willie and Friends win; Shamangino eats player; b) Wisconsin at Illinois - Wisconsin is allegedly a top 10 team, with the following victories: 21 pts over Wash St (who hasn't beaten a BCS conf team yet); 14 pts over the Citadel; 3 pts over a Iowa team recovering from a loss to previously winless Iowa St; 7 pt victory over UNLV, 3 pt victory over Michigan St. Illinois is that sweet spot of Ron Zook where superb talent he has recruited hasn't yet realized he can't coach. Prediction: Illinois.
230 pm - LandThieves vs Horns - Horns are banged up and locked up. Not many folks saw this coming, but the Horns just haven't put together much good football this year. The Sooners consolidated their bad football into two quarters Saturday, and came home with a loss. Prediction: Sooners
630 pm - Boone State plays Cash Machine U. The victor gets the opportunity to get spanked by the Sooners in Norman later in the year with the Big 12 South championship on the line. Prediction: home field advantage tips game in Cash Machine U's favor.
700 pm - after the first quarter of Boone State vs Cash Machine U, change the channel to the Florida at LSU game. This one should be a slugfest. Great speed on both defenses. LSU generally plays to a huge home field advantage. You can check on the Big 12 South game during TV timeouts. Prediction: My distaste for Les Miles and desire to have LSU lose is overriden by common sense. I think LSU wins this one.
815 pm - Bugeaters at Mizzou - This is not a game to watch, only to monitor during TV timeouts after the Boone State vs Cash Machine game ends and you'r still watching UF vs LSU. Prediction: time for the Gary Pinkel late season fade to begin. Bugeaters win.
