Lock of the Week: Illinois -4.5 vs UTSA

My locker of the week this week is actually Illinois minus four and a half at home against UTSA. That is a straight up disrespectful line... to get that at under a touchdown, it's like, I don't think Illinois is some juggernaut now because it beat Nebraska, but they are definitely a touchdown better than UTSA.

UTSA won the game outright 37-30, making the Illinois -4.5 pick a loss.

Having Big Cat and I as caddies will be a huge advantage for Brooks Koepka

I think having me and big cat on the bag is going to be a huge advantage for [Brooks Koepka] for at least like the first hole until Big Cat and I get too tired.

While a joke, Brooks Koepka did win his match against Dave Portnoy, though not because of their caddying skills.

US Soccer will make the World Cup this year

I'm not down with the negativity from Big Cat. I'm not negative. Wait. Whoa, whoa, whoa. When was I negative? I said it would be a shame if we didn't make the World Cup. I think that this is the year. This is a year for US Soccer to... make the World Cup.

The USMNT successfully qualified for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The art of parallel parking has been completely bastardized by backup cameras

I do think that parallel parking, the art of parallel parking has been completely bastardized by these cameras now. It sucks. It's not the same... It was always awesome when it was like no cameras, just fucking crushed it.

This is a subjective opinion on the evolution of driving skills and automotive technology.

LSU will supplant Texas as the second-best team in the SEC

I look at LSU and the coaching upgrade that they have and how talented that team is. I wonder if they're not the second best team in the league.

Will be resolved based on final SEC standings.

Indiana has a real chance to have the best defensive line in the Big 10

I believe there's a chance that Indiana has the best defensive line in the Big 10. I think that is a real possibility with what they have, both as guys as they've developed. And because with the new rules, some people they've been able to bring back who weren't in NFL camps... They've got like fathers of three on their defensive line. And I think that's a huge advantage to have.

Will be evaluated based on total defense/sack metrics in the Big 10.

The Big 10 will only get three teams into the 2026 College Football Playoff

I'm gonna say it now. Big 10 doesn't get a fourth team in. Oh, okay. I think they're only gonna get those three [Oregon, Indiana, Ohio State]. They're just gonna eat each other alive.

The 2026 CFP selection will resolve this.
