It looks like we have a modern day Plunger Walton

That would be like a token wager for Plunger Walton on a horse he didn't have very strong convictions about -- but still.

Did anyone else watch the Michigan/Alabama game tonight? There was one play early where a Michigan WR easily made a first-down on a 2nd and 10 play. They mysteriously marked the ball 4 yards back to force a 3rd down and 2.

I don't know what it is -- but everytime an SEC powerhouse plays -- they get all the calls. Did anyone see the end of the South Carolina/Vandy game ... one of the most blatant examples of pass interference you'll ever see and the official has a perfect view and is looking right at it -- and he keeps the flag in his pocket.

I like to watch College football -- but is just shady from all angles.

Floyd probably didn't make the bet -- but the man needs his attention.

If you watch sports much at all, you should quickly recognize the following:

The NBA is rigged. Flagrantly.
The SEC controls NCAA football. It's ridiculous.

One of the things I took away from week #1 of college football -- and I really didn't have a chance to watch much of it -- but It's pretty obvious how valuable Andrew Luck and Russell Wilson were.

Stanford wins just 20-17 at home against San Jose State.

The Badgers, in Camp Randall, win by only 5 points against the Northern Iowa Panthers (who?)

Penn State is a train wreck -- they were raided and lost about 12 contributing players -- the Ohio Bobcats beat them in Happy Valley.

If he did make that bet, he needs to have his head examined. Little Nicky will throttle the Big10 every chance he gets. Just ask Mich St.

I can tell you all that he didn't make that bet.
