********College Football: Week 8********
With the BCS standings out, from here on in it's elimination time. The stakes get higher every week. THE best time of the year. Nothing comes close in my humble fucking opinion. But I'm staring at two fucking monster games in Iowa City the next two weeks. But, I aggress. I lift my glass of McClellans Single Malt Scotch to Jon LP. 9-3. A very tough week. Fish...well done , also. enuegii STILL setting the pace. This week's slate wasn't easy. The Ole Miss-Arkansas match up is off. So, I had to make due. Back to Thursday night with the Ducks playing, so in before kick-off. Thanks for hanging in. Here we go... Standings to folow.

Thursday, October 21
UCLA + 21.5 @ Oregon

1. Suddenly a Kentucky game is fascinating...
Sorry era vet - I'm not being mean. I love the 2010 version of the SEC. Oh - and I can't help myself. In one of my many incarnations, I'm a UGA graduate.

20. As a UK football fan I'm pretty thick skinned, lots of
practice. If you have seen KY play in the 2nd half against Auburn & South Cackilacky you will know how interesting a complete game by the Cats could be. Maybe back to back wins over the Dogs. I was a UG fan first but it's all UK now, good luck!!
