November 1,S.O.C. - Week 11, The Calm Before the Storm
« on: November 01, 2025, 06:33:00 AM »
Mornin' all,coffee is on - with the first College Football Playoff rankings coming next week, this seems to be the calm before the storm.

Where will the upsets come from? Can Penn State screw up Ohio State? Who will survive the Texas vs Vanderbilt showdown? Who will stay alive for the CFP in the Oklahoma vs Tennessee battle? No real iconic match-ups,no doubt there will be a few surprises tho

In the BIG it's the University of Spoiled Children vs the Bugeaters @ 7:30 on NBC,could be a 1 possession game. USC has been in and out of the AP Top 25 poll as it struggles with consistency. Nebraska is consistently bad against ranked opponents.

No. 2 Indiana at Maryland -- 3:30 p.m. on CBS.Indiana will look to keep rolling and maintain its unblemished record as it travels to Maryland. The Hoosiers are also searching for their second-straight 9-0 start under coach Curt Cignetti.Might watch this game

Vanderbilt Commodores (+2.5) at Texas Longhorns might be with out Arch Manning with a concussion. Texas will have its hands full against a very good Vanderbilt squad.At 7-1, Vanderbilt has already exceeded expectations this season and notched victories over three ranked squads.

Oklahoma Sooners (+3) at Tennessee Volunteers - the loser leaves town as both have 2 loses,Sooners are 1-2 over their last three contests. Sooners' QB John Mateer hasn't looked as dynamic since coming back from surgery on his throwing hand in late September; Volunteers' QB Joey Aguilar seems to get better every week

Penn State at No. 1 Ohio State -- noon on Fox,border battle,ninnies got nothing to lose and will go all in. A 3-4 record, fired coach and an injured quarterback later, the Nittany Lions are just trying to keep their heads above water. The Buckeyes, on the other hand, are 7-0, and have their sights set on winning another national title.

Georgia Bulldogs (-7.5) vs. Florida Gators -  what Florida team is going to come out of the tunnel. That’s the  question here, because there is obviously the possibility that they’ve mailed the season in.

Morning Nubbz. The dogs have been fed and were already barking up a storm at something. With the oldest at college, the younger two want to be in different rooms, so their task will be to divvy up all the stuff today, so they shouldn't bother me too much during football.

Don't have a great feeling about the game today. Something about PSU having nothing to lose and coaches auditioning for new jobs makes me think they will be throwing everything out there. Plus Grunkemeyer is from central ohio. 

Still figuring out the food scene. Wife is working so what can I make that the girls won't complain about?

Trying to decide how to deal with this YouTube mess. Also, people have put random stuff on my schedule that I either don’t want to go to  it should or wish was in December. Such is life.

wet cool morning here - coffee is good and black (like the Husker's stadium)

with the turn of the calendar to November, it's time to get some things done outside
need to wash the Vette, tune up the snowblower, take a pile of branches to the city burn pile, organize the garage, move the golf cart trailer to the back yard

6:30 PM kickoff is good

brought 3 cleaned pheasants from South Dakota last week, they might go in the crockpot or it'll be sausages & kraut later

Very dreary morning here in the Twin Cities. 40 and drizzle. 

Dug out all the stadium blankets and towels for today's game. Aluminum benches get cold fast.

I'll flip back and forth until the Huskers are too far behind
