I have to admit, it’s feeling a little vacuous around KCCGD headquarters. All of the excitement from last week’s Ron Prince firing has died down to hearsay from family members. The next biggest game of the year courtesy of the Big 12 is next week. The biggest game this week comes from Lawrence and the Talk isn’t expecting much from the game. What’s left to do? Well in the lull times of football games you really are left up to the activities a bar has while you watch the mismatches play. Sometimes the games at a bar can be the saving grace to day of poor college football watching. Let’s hope that Dirk’s comes through as I’m bringing some extra quarters in preparation. Here’s this week’s picks:

Krizzou’s bucking some trends in the hope of coming back from Cabbottmtf’s lead, while the Purple Yeti is going out on the limb picking Jayhawks to at least cover the spread. Maybe in the next two weeks, Cabbottmtf might get sick or the interwebs refuse to work for him in the hopes of making the final stretch a little more competitive. Maybe the Yeti can dial up his cousin the Squatch to head toward western Kansas and scare the bejeebus out Cabbottmtf. Seriously, that’s the kind of mojo needed to put someone over the top beside Cabbottmtf. Well played season, Cabbottmtf, but it’s not over yet. Time to get some beef jerkey.
