EDSBSGPS: WHERE WE AT, WEEK 4
The viewing agenda:
ORSON (Knoxville):
Florida @ Tennessee. Email our fearless leader to invite him to pertinent merriment/well-kickings.
HOLLY (Los Angeles/Tempe/still sitting on a plastic bench at O’Hare):
If I can ever get this effing plane to take off, I’m making a fast break for Arizona directly after touching down on the coast. Assuming I survive watching the Florida game, the rest of the day will be devoted to watching LSU @ Auburn and marinating in Georgia @ AZ State. Mmmm, conference play. You taste like bourbon candy.
Bill Stewart will be sleeping the sleep of the angels, without a care in the world, if anyone needs him. Unless you need him to coach a football team.
And you, fair readers? Tell us where you’re going, what you’re watching, and what you’re drinking this fine fall weekend.

I will be in Auburn this weekend… with a cup to catch the tears of the LSU faithful after the game…
and I will drink deeply

My plan this weekend?
I’m drinking…I black out…I wake up at another bar…drink some more…black out…I wake up playing that knife game with a half-Indian somewhere in South Dakota “Yeah yeah winner fixes the tranny, yeah!”…drink some more…black out…I wake up in White Castle…been working there for three years…my friends tell me to quit, but I can’t, because I’m banging the slow girl on the fry-a-lator…friends say she’s a little dim, but THOSE TITTIES AIN’T DIM!

Noon: A marvelous buffet of crappy Big 10 games.
3:30: The first half of Florida/Tennessee, then I’m flipping to Notre Dame/Michigan State after Tebow and the boys pull away.
7:45: LSU/Auburn
11:00: Me lamenting that there’s no late night Pac 10 or WAC shootout

What else? UT vs. Rice. This game is so important it was referenced by a U.S. President:
“But why, some say, the moon? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas?” President John Kennedy
I can’t drink. I have to write this weekend. Everyone can drink for me. I prefer bourbon and coke.

I’ll start my football viewing from my couch in Orlando while drinking some vodka tonics.
However, at some point(after many said vodka tonics) I’ll probably leave my house, head somewhere with some friends and not realize I’m not still on the couch until many hours later.

With this much quality football in one day? There’s only one place to go. TO THE COUCH!
Noon: Fishing for rich, fullbodied schadenfreude from the Ga. Tech - Mississippi State game. Maybe the Jackets have finally found a squad of Bulldogs they can beat.
3:30: Watching FL-TN, hoping that the officials convene in the late third quarter and discover a loophole in the rules that allows both teams to lose. (Yeah, I’m a homer. Aren’t you too, deep down?)
8:00: Watching UGA toast ASU hopefully. The burn won’t be that bad I hear, since the Dawgs are working with a “dry heat”, whatever the hell that is. I’m keeping an eye on the LSU-Auburn game too.
Drinking: MAKER’S MARK. As much as possible. Maybe beer too.

11:00: Probably Iowa-Pitt, although ECU-NCSU is a possibility if the Wolfpack offense decides to demonstrate its existence for the first time.
2:30: MSU-Notre Dame. And no, there will be no turning to Florida-Tennessee except during halftime; I’ve seen too many MSU-ND games to think there’s any chance of a sane ending.
6:00: Wake-FSU, because the other options are Texas-Rice and Indiana-Ball State. At least Wake-FSU might be competitive, even though it’ll set the cause of offense back almost as badly as Auburn-Miss State.
7:00: Okay, enough of that shit. Time to flip back and forth between LSU-Auburn (which is always entertaining as hell, if for no other reason than an average of one bone-shattering hit every three plays) and Georgia-ASU (SEC team west of the Mississippi usually equals FAIL, but given that the home team just lost to UNLV, who knows?).

Here in CA, I will be on my couch and in front of the computer.
9 AM: watch ECU trash NC State and Iowa and Pitt try to outsuck each other
Noon: weekly dose of Notre Dame schadenfreude, Arizona-UCLA cripple fight
1 PM: Florida-Tennessee
5 PM: LSU-Auburn and UGA-Arizona State — flip between defensive struggle with massive hits and take bets on which UGA D-lineman rips Rudy Carpenter his fifth off-brand asshole. (At least two of them are Rey-related.)
Already stocked with Firestone ale, whiskey, and vodka.

In NYC watching GT put a whooping on Croom (and no, this game won’t be close or low scoring) at home because the GT bar in NYC is some tourist trap by MSG now.
Afternoon - not sure, whatever’s good. Probably VT@UNC just to see all the “why are there people here? football game? what’s that??” looks on people’s faces in Chapel Hill.
At night I’ll be down at the Village Pour House to watch Kansas eviscerate Sam Houston State with the KU Alumni and hopefully slurping up the sweet tears of the Georgia faithful (who share the same bar) as they lose in the desert.

The usual, golf in the morning, home in time to watch the Terrelle Pryor era ushered in vs. Troy. I cannot wager on this game.
Then watch every game on TV until the end of UGA/ASU.
Picks this week are Bama over Arky, lay the points. Florida to cover over Tennessee. Take the under on LSU @ Auburn. I took UGA to cover and pushed last week. Do I dare to try again? I like ECU to win but not sure if they can cover.

The Gator fans in Knoxville tonight are well-behaved and polite, which likely means two of the following three things:
1) I’m home too early (11p)
2) They are confident of easy victory
3) The vicious jort-base unable to travel in today’s “super” economy.
Tennessee fans are variously grinning to themselves with thoughts of an upset win over hated rival Gators versus replacing Fulmer with Bruce Pearl versus drinking that whole bottle of George Dickel.
“Git yerself sum of dis right chere!”

That LSU-Auburn game should be a doozy, but if y’all get too defensed out by that one, you can always flip over to the Ball State-Indiana game over on the Jim Delany Network. It should be plenty score-y with two high-octane offenses and two defenses that are less so.
You can get a quick mainline of offense during those interminable ESPN commercial breaks, at least.
I’m not investing much emotion in the outcome of the game despite the in-state rivalry, since Indiana fans will likely continue their decades-old tradition of acting like hostile, condescending jerks towards Ball State folks, win or lose.

In the afternoon, I shall be monitoring trans-Atlantic cripple fights (Roma v Reggina, UCLA v Arizona) and in the evening I shall be watching games that have the potential to be blow-outs or close shaves depending on which version of the team shows up (Arsenal v Bolton, and Georgia v ASU).
I like the thematic consistency, which almost certainly guarantees that I will get stuck wrapping up our 2007 taxes in the afternoon and falling asleep in front of LSU - Auburn because my brain can’t handle that degree of awesome.

and Nathan, I feel you on the NYC tourist trap bar gamewatches. We moved ours from McFadden’s which is nice, but now I miss out on the B&T T&A that used to trickle in at the end of our 4 hour NBC marathons.
And that’s another thing. NBC games go on FOREVER. I’m looking forward to being on ABC so I can get home before 8:30 tonight.

The Plan:
3:30PM GMT: Go to Jamesons distillery; pick up 2 bottles of the 12 y.o. distillery reserve; swing by Peterson’s Fine Tobacco and Cigars, get a cab of H. Uppman Magnum 46s.
Returning home to watch DVR’d second half hour of GameDay. Zipping through those awful Howard’s Rock commercials should have me caught up by 4:30PM.
5PM: Iowa-Pitt snoozefest on NASN. Shake fist at the sky for the injustice of having to watch bad football on the big screen. Decide that ESPN Gameplan must have a better offering; turn on the laptop, only to be Croomed by BEEES!!
Turn off horrid State-Tech game for Arkansas v Alabama. Watch in bliss as Arkansas upsets; drink first bottle, if things are going badly; drink both bottles if things are going well.
8:30 PMish Switch over to Va-Tech v. UNC or Miami v TAMU on GamePlan (whichever is the better game at the point that the Arkansas Alabama game ends); Florida-TN on the big screen. Focus attention on best game, as much as whiskey allows.
Midnight: prepare for Georgia-ASU game on the TV by finishing any remaining whiskey. Double check pre-nup that my wife can’t divorce me for my CFB viewing habits.
Wofford v. South Carolina on the laptop!!! WOO!….I mean, LSU v. Auburn. First to 4 wins!
Pass out about 5am GMT.

We’re kicking off in the DC area at noon with the required viewing of ACC crapfests (Mississippi State / Georgia Tech, NC State / ECU) with a side dash of Arkansas / Alabama, mostly for kicks.
Then it’s off to the bar to drown my sorrows while watching Florida completely decimate the Vols. Hopefully there will be some schadenfreudic awesomeness with the ND / Michigan State game and hoping like hell we’re not subjected to Virginia Tech. Again.
We’re capping off the night with SEC awesomeness: LSU / Auburn in the manly battle of the year and UGA destroying Arizona State. Oh, and there’s Wake Forest / Florida State serving as the proverbial turd in the punchbowl tonight, too.

Yeesh, that was an ugly win, but it’s a win. 4-and-0 is a helluva start, Cats. Now maybe I can choke down some brunch, if I can get my heart out of the way.

I wonder what the Georgia players were thinking as Bama was dismantling Arkansas….Would Vegas move the line closer? I am pulling for Georgia to represent in Arizona tonight…Whoever gets thru the SEC will be quality competition for USC…..and I hope USC will be favored….

How ’bout that Auburn offense!!! It sure was tough getting 3 points for the win against the vaunted MSU defense… a school that would never ever give up 420 yards rushing.

I’m watching the Miami/A&M game. There have been a few bright spots but overall, a sad day for A&M. The defensive line has way too many gaps and the Aggies have made some serious gaffs. This is going to be a win for Thug U.

Texas 44, Rice 10, 4th quarter. The defense look better than thy have in previous games. I’m breathing a small sigh of relief right now. The secondary has looked relatively good, too. McCoy is fabulous tonight. McCoy to Shipman has been out standing.
I don’t know the status, but it looks as if we have probably lost our TE for the year. He took a hit and it was just ugly. It didn’t look nearly as bad as the Theismann hit to the knee, but I would put it in the same family. If he comes out of that without surgery, it will be a miracle.

Thanks, NewAZTiger, you gave us all we wanted, as usual. There’s always some kind of clutch 4th quarter drive that comes out of nowhere. Now on to what’s important: extending the dual winning streak against Alabama. If each team can win this year and then again in ‘09, I sincerely believe we can induce a permanent psychotic break in the Tide fanbase. They’re well on their way already, deep in the “delusions of grandeur” stage of the syndrome.

It’s good for the Bulldogs to know they can win on the road, while getting absolutely homered.
Not complaining, just observing that I’ve never seen a “leaping” penalty when one player didn’t use his teammate as a springboard. Massaquoi fell down and was called for tripping when the only person whose way he got in was his own player’s. [Jimmy Carter as referree: "that player tripped in his heart!"] And the roughing the passer penalty early on was utter bullshit.
Instant replay is still bullshit and the clock rules are nonsense. GO DAWGS!
