The Motor City Ric Flair is today a better wrestler than the far younger Sting. Has no one realizedhe isn't any good and hasn't been for over 15 years? Speaking of people who haven't been good sinceabout 1995, Kevin Nash should really just be a manager. TNA has multiple big men who can't talk.

Alabama must of thought if they didn't beat LSU (which they didn't 34-41) the season was overbecause they've lost their last four with the worst being against Louisiana Monroe 14-21. You alwayshave to wonder about teams that play as well as their opponents. That loss may have made thealumni think twice about Nick Saban, so don't expect it to happen again although this will be close.

This will be a great NFL game to watch as the late game on Fox but from a betting stand point it is apass. There are too many question marks heading into the game. As the pre season takes shape thisopinion can change. Wait until September to even consider making a play on this game.

In my week 7 preview article, I predicted the Houston Texans would defeat the Lions 28-10, andearly on it appeared I had given the Lions too much credit. Early in the second quarter, Houstontook a 21-0 lead, and Detroit looked utterly hopeless. It seemed apropos they were playing theTexans, because it reminded me of the 2005 Texans, who seemed to be throwing games on their wayto the number one pick.

TCU vs. Houston(Houston, Texas)- Normally I would have said "Here comes the golden rule again",but this time both teams are basically at home so it's a little more difficult than that. I guess youcould be one of those people that say, "Well TCU beat Stanford and Stanford beat USC so theyshould easily win this game" I'm telling you don't be so sure. Houston is one of those teams thatscratch and claw like they did against Alabama on the road and came out on the wrong end of a 30-24 game.
