People are saying the Digest isn’t what it used to be. Joey Digest doesn’t have it anymore. Even premium members, who I consider ride or dies, are TROLLING and FADING me during LIVE games. Can I say that makes me upset? Of course. No one likes to see that. Can I say I understand their motives? Of course. They’re losing money just like I am. They just like to point the finger. In times like these, in years like these (covid season, should my record really count?) it’s tough to look at the numbers and not feel like the ship is sinking. Maybe the iceberg was too big to handle. For those of you left, let us ride out the depths as brothers. It’s been an honor and a privilege.
SIKE! Fuck that. We’re going balls to the wall today. Never lose sight. Never give up. No mercy, no surrender. This season has been bullshit. But you know what’s really bullshit? This slate today. The amount of cancelled games, including the wave pick (covid season, should my record really count?), is unprecedented. This Saturday is like the bad breakfast sandwich you forced yourself to eat that one morning in college when you woke up, not sure where you were, and found yourself the closest deli where the ‘pork roll egg and cheese’ came out with that soggy roll, the moister-than-usual egg, the knock-off Taylor Ham, the Kraft singles, and a minimum 5 strands of hair from a variety of body parts from the dude who made it for you who already ripped half a pack of Camels before the time of your 10am order. We have to work with what we got today. The slate might not taste good, it might be borderline FDA approved, but we have to go into Thanksgiving positive. Never lose sight. Never give up. No mercy, no surrender.
TCU @ West Virginia: West Virginia -3
West Virginia at home. You take West Virginia at home this season. 4-0 at home, 0-3 on the road. Giving up fewer than 260 yards per game at home compared to way over 300 on the road. That’s country roads football. You take them at home this season. Take me home, country roads.
Final Score: West Virginia 38, TCU 21
(10) Indiana @ Michigan State: Indiana -7
I can’t tell if Indiana is actually good or if the teams they play are just bad. That confusion in mind, Michigan State is bad. So it really shouldn’t matter if Indiana is actually good. Ride the hot hand.
Final Score: Indiana 32, Michigan State 20
Texas State @ Georgia Southern: Georgia Southern -10.5
I’m an honest man, I don’t know dick about these two teams. This is a toss-up. I’m looking for anything. Shooting fish in a barrel.
Final Score: Georgia Southern 28, Texas State 17
Arkansas @ (6) Florida: Florida -17.5
Did you see Florida against Georgia last weekend? The offense is humming, the defense is trending in the right direction, and there was a video of probably the world’s largest gator just strolling across some tee box in Florida this week. Arkansas has been in a nose dive. You are taking the Gators today.
Final Score: Florida 42, Arkansas 17
Florida State @ North Carolina State: NC State -10.5
NC State is on a 2-game losing streak. A spanking from rival UNC, and a tight back and forth matchup with Miami. They are foaming at the mouth for a win. Florida State can take it and shove it.
Final Score: NC State 42, Florida State 24
This is where I would normally put the running record, instead, here's Dave Matthews hit single 'Ants Marching'
Running Record: (68-55-2)
