SportsUnderground.com’s Dumb A$$ of the Week Award

SportsUnderground.com's Dumb A$$ of the Week Award

Joe Cullen wins the  award hands down this week. The first year defensive line coach for the Detroit Lions was arrested twice in the past two weeks due to driving while under the influence of alcohol and also for driving through a Wendy’s drive-thru NAKED! Luckily the Wendy’s worker said Cullen didn’t do anything obscene, but call me whacky because I think that is by far obscene enough.

9-11

Buckeyes Nation

It definitely looked like Ohio State had revenge on their mind last night in Austin because they destroyed the Longhorns 24-7. It was just one year ago that Texas squeaked past the Buckeyes 25-22 towards a NCAA football National Championship. It was the first time in a decade a #1 vs #2 matchup occurred in college football, but Ohio State didn’t allow the game to meet the hype. The two keys to the Buckeyes victory was their inexperienced defense stepping up and playing stellar along with Heisman hopeful Troy Smith throwing for 269 yards and two touchdowns. Cincinnati is next on the schedule for the Buckeyes and then come back to back weeks against Penn State and Iowa.

College Football Bet of the Day

Tonight the Oregon State Beavers roll into the Boise State to tangle on the blue turf. I think the line is a little inflated at -7.5 Boise State due to the Broncos 46-2 record at home since 1999. I think Oregon State not only covers, but they could win the game.

Overall College Football Record = 1-1

Oregon State covers +7.5 at Boise State

Super Bowl Predictions

A good friend sent me this long list of all the top NFL analysts and who they think will make the Super Bowl this year. I have to admit many of the selections surprised me. I think this is a testament to how wide open the NFL championship is this year.

Tiger at Top of His Game

Tiger WoodsI just want to be straight up and say we are literally watching history before our eyes each week Tiger Woods plays golf. The man just won his FIFTH straight event yesterday at the Deutsche Bank Championship and is already FIFTH on the all-time winners list. Woods came from three strokes behind Vijay Singh on the final day to win this event by shooting a stellar 63. There is no way Tiger can win 11 in a row and top Byron Nelson’s amazing record because we are in a new day and time, but in my mind these five victories in a row is just as big of a deal as Nelson’s 11!
