Wednesday Thoughts....


1. KU is favored by 12.5 points over Nebraska in Lincoln tonight. Everyone predicts a BIG JAYCOCK win because they're MAD MAD MAD over their loss at Tennessee on Sunday. Maybe if they showed up Sunday they wouldn't have lost. KU continues its ineptitude against non-conference opponents, where it doesn't get to manhandle opponents and get every call imaginable.

Hell, the 'Hawks needed a terrible and-one call at home against the Big Red last week...Cornell that is...to seal the game. Then they were completely dominated in Knoxville by the Vols, who were playing with six scholarship players. Sweet. This is Doc Sadler's deepest squad in terms of athletes (albeit still not strong enough to bang inside vs. older players), so PYB wouldn't be surprised to see the Cornhuskers keep it within the spread....we know big dollars will go on KU and Vegas ain't stupid.

2. Colt McCoy gets engaged....hopefully for him his arm is the only thing that feels like a noodle....

3. For all you bettors out there.....bet against Milwaukee the rest of this week and get rich.....after playing a back-to-back at LAL and PHX Sunday/Monday, the Bucks play four out of five nites at Portland, Golden State, Utah and Houston. Michael Redd went out for the year w/ another ACL tear on Sunday. Brandon Jennings is shooting 32% from the field and 30% from the FT line the last month. Cha-ching...

4. Anyone heard of Tacki-Mac golf grips? Just got a deal on some yesterday at Golfsmith....come in all colors and feel pretty good. But PYB needs some consumer reports....the kid at the shop said they'd been around forever....

5. Lane Kiffin to USC. A definite upgrade for the Trojans, as far as coaching skills go. Pete Carroll was a glorified cheerleader. That shit doesn't play in the NFL, which is why he'll be fired within two years. $7MM per year AND president duties to a guy who flopped in his first attempt in the league? Please.
