I can't remember the last time big NBC had a 10:30 EST kick on a Saturday night.

Guessing SNL is off this week (and next?)

Surprised Burden III isn't on the list. Maybe I shouldn't be.

Not sure if there's an early line on UW-Oregon, but I don't see the Ducks holding back on an overmatched Huskies team.

Burden is gonna be a damn good pro. Next year. It will be interesting to see if he skips the bowl game.

ESPN talking heads throwing dumb shirt at the wall, Part MCMXLVII:

ESPN Analyst Suggests Indiana Should Sit Starting QB Kurtis Rourke vs. Ohio State

 

[Hermes]

I asked my wife if I was allowed to wear a Kurtis Rourke Ohio jersey to the game. I was vetoed. It would've been an expensive gag, but a fun follow up to the game in the Shoe where all our fans put up our arms in a U at the end of their OH-IO chant for the entire game. They booed…every time.

They're not the only ones. Some Tennessee fans say they should sit Nico this week so he doesn't get hurt against a nothing opponent.

All to be sure he's healthy JUST IN CASE the right dominoes fall and Tennessee squeaks into a playoff spot.

Nothing matters anymore except the forking playoff. Conference championship games --- once something to celebrate --- are now feared because of the possibility of that dreaded third loss. heck, why play any good players against the Kent States and Chattanoogas? They might get hurt!

Calling Golloway an "analyst" is to put it mildly stretching the meaning of that noun. Also, an Oho State rout of Indiana, which could happen Rourke or no Rourke, is just the excuse the committee would need to broom IU from the playoof picture.
