THE PENIX IS RISING

DARK HORSE FOR HEISMAN BO NIX

It's 7AM. You accidentally slept through your alarm to get to work, but you have just enough time to brush your teeth, make coffee, and get on the road to get there before 8. So you brush your teeth, comb your hair, make your coffee, and-- you spill the coffee. Fortunately, it only splashes on your shoes and maybe the bottom inch of your pants. It sucks though, as now you don't have coffee, and lo and behold, you're getting a caffeine headache. You look for your keys to get going. But you can't find your keys anywhere, not on the entryway table, not in the pockets of the pants you wore yesterday. You're starting to get stressed for time. Finally, you find your keys. They were on the kitchen counter. You get in your car, finally ready for work, gearing up for the day, and there's a SIG alert on the 5. Now you're really stressed. You don't want to get written up again. So you get off onto surface streets and are driving like a jerk, swerving and nearly hitting random pedestrians and freaking out all the time. You notice your car is nearly out of gas, and you're in downtown now, so you REALLY don't wanna pay $7.50 a gallon, and now you're stressed about the return commute. Finally, you get to work. It's somehow only 7:58. You card in, and it turns out that your manager cancelled the meeting. All that stress. Welcome to USC football.

Dang. That was impressive. Chip Kelly's best defense honestly.

Okay I thought OSU had a better defense than this. Still a pretty good team, movement reflective of how UCLA played more than anything.

Ouch. Wazzu played well but got manhandled at the line.

Cam Rising is probably gone for the season and that's rough. I know they had a bye, but I am less enthused now than I was, even despite Wazzu's loss.

I hate Colorado with a passion (unrelated to their current circumstances). They did win this football game, however.

17-0. That was pretty good. The rest was bad. Go for 2.

Cal scored way more than I expected! Would move them up but-for the other Middling teams doing well.

Rough FG.

Bye week, still probably lost.

Games were supposed to be straightforward. They were not. I am a little bit in pain. I am excited for hate week.
