KC College GameDay LiveBlog 2013 Week 10: Farmageddon Has Arrived

farmageddon2009

It’s the most holy of holy rivalries for any kind of farm bearing football fan.  Yes, Kansas State takes on Iowa State this weekend and I’ll be live-blogging all of the destruction.  It’s a Big 12 afternoon as well as we’ll see two more mediocre match ups before Oklahoma State takes on Texas Tech.  Plus we got Miami taking on Florida State in a very relevant rivalry game.  There will be blood left of the field after this day and I’ll be here documenting it all Ken Burns style.  Except using corny music.

Pick It And Stick It: Stick-to-itiveness

Last week Kansas State bounced back, as I correctly predicted, and now it’s time for them to keep sawing that wood.  There’s plenty of other teams out there with saws that have plenty of 2×4’s to tackle.  We’ll tackle what I think they will do this weekend rightcheer.  You know, I have a saw myself for the picks.  It’s time I get back on the track.  Now where’s that wood.

For me and the Kansas State Wildcats, it’s time to reboot this college football season.  They are 2-4 and need to win out essentially to make a bowl game.  I’m back in the fold for the remainder of the season after some festivals and friends rolling into town.  It’s a new day, it’s a new week, and it’s a new LiveBlog watching most of Saturday’s action.  West Virginia heads to Kansas State as well as some other tasty Big 12 action is all I need to make this season restart.  Let’s do this.

Yes it’s that time of year when the leaves start to turn and when, in Austin, the temperature actually falls below 50 degrees at night.  Yup, time to round up the slippers, warm up the pumpkin spice whatever, pop on your favorite pullover, and watch some college football all crispy and fresh air like.  And my, what a week to watch, too.  Kansas State is back, we’ve got some proving grounds to cover for Texas Tech, and a whole bevy of top 25 match ups.

Yup, Kansas State is not playing so I will be in and out for the day.  Never fear, however, as I’ll probably watch some tasty ACC matchups tonight with Florida State heading to Clemson.  Chances are I’ll be flipping to USC and Notre Dame too.  The Big 12 and yes, Missouri, are already going so I’ll be throwing my two cents in when I can.  Well, I’ll be throwing in my double doubles when I can that is.

Whoa man I am so glad Kansas State doesn’t play football this week.  I’m recovering from Austin City Limits Music Festival last week and I’m just ready for some good football and nothing on the line for yours truly.  Peering at the schedule it looks like it’s a great non committal weekend for me.  Some tasty top 25 match ups and enough Big 12 action to fill up the whole day Saturday.

pick-nose-guy-book

Whew my picks last week stunk.  It almost stuck as much as my pick for Kansas State over Texas.  Yes, it was for the spread and yes, they didn’t make it.  So how am I going to recover this week?  Fortunately Kansas State is off so I don’t have to worry about them.  There are some Top 25  matchups that could smooth the blow and get me back on the road to recovery.  There’s also a nice little non conference matchup that will be exciting as well.
