Snoop Dogg's Son Is a Four Star Football Recruit

Written by: Clay Travis

Ever see Snoop Dogg strutting across the stage and think, "Snoop's got some decent height and if he wasn't so high all the time, he might have pretty good motor skills."

Well, you were right. 

Meet Cordell Broadus, Snoop's son, who is a four-star, ranked #88 overall, in the class of 2015 by 24/7 Sports.

The Doggfather's son already has ten scholarship offers from USC, LSU, Tennessee, Duke, California, and UCLA among others.

The Big 12 and the Big East are like the two drunkest, most desperate people at the bar trying to hook up. It's never pretty. One day after it was clear that West Virginia was on the last helicopter out of the Big East Saigon, it suddenly wasn't clear at all after reported phone calls from Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell to Oklahoma and Texas Tech leaders. You knew at some point that truth would become stranger than fiction in the conference realignment mess. You just didn't expect for United States senators from West Virginia to make statements like these:

"If someone as U.S. Senator interfered after the process took place, then that's wrong and unacceptable," West Virginia's Senator Manchin said. "If a U.S. Senator has done anything inappropriate or unethical to interfere with a decision that the Big 12 had already made then I believe that there should be an investigation in the U.S. Senate."

And with these quotes the conference realignment male soap opera, turned into a script so insane even Latin American telenovellas would reject it as unbelievable.

At this point, there is only one logical conclusion to conference realignment: After a two year investigation Baylor president Ken Starr will be impeached for having an affair with an intern.

Vinnie Verno Dresses Up For Halloween

Written by: Clay Travis

This week Vinnie Verno is dressing up as a bookie for Halloween, breaking down Missouri vs. Texas A&M based on the hotness of their girls, and giving you a video that perfectly illustrates the beating Alabama delivered against Tennessee.

Confession: I replayed Teach Me How to Gundy several times.

Meanwhile, if you want a real oddsmaker to rely on, you need to check out my guys at Prediction Machine. They're 80% against the spread in NFL games this year. 80%!.

You can go to his site here for free picks, fantasy news and whatnot. He's hitting right at 80% against the spread right now.

Late last night the toddler Halloween costume of the year arrived on my Twitter feed. I'm not going to lie, I thought my one-year old's toddler Darth Vader was going to be pretty hard to beat. Then this showed up on my Twitter timeline. This is even better than Deadspin's Baby Mangino from a couple year's back. I've emailed with the mother of Toddler Dooley -- here a hint he's got the middle name Neyland!-- and I'll have more information about the costume up soon. But as I run off to the radio show I wanted to go ahead and make y'all's day.

Okay, here's the details from mom Cortney on Toddler Dooley:

"So excited that you love my son's halloween costume!   I couldn't find orange toddler pants, or a T polo. So I rit-dyed some of his khaki pants, and found an iron-on T logo. I ordered a superman black vinyl wig, and borrowed my husbands xbox controller.  I attached the controller to a little radio to clip onto his belt.  Completed the outfit with a brown belt and brown shoes.  My son thinks he is some serious hot stuff in his outfit!!   How cool would it be to have some Derek Dooley autographed orange pants for my son's Tennessee room ?!"

Cortney, I think I speak for every college football fan in America when I say: you've won Halloween.

...

By the way, the fact that every sports fan in America isn't on Twitter is one of the most amazing fan fails I've seen this side of assaulting a first base coach. (If you're confused about Twitter just follow me and then follow all the people I follow. You can supplement from there, but it's a good base).

Our beaver pelt trader of the week? Is it even a question? Toddler Dooley.

On to the mailbag.

Two Conference Games to Watch   Florida vs Georgia (3:30 ET/CBS) – History battles reality on Saturday as two teams headed in seemingly different directions meet in Jacksonville. One has owned the series while the other has owned the last month of the current season. Both teams enter the game coming off bye weeks, but that's where any recent similarities end. Florida enters riding a 3-game losing streak, having suffered a trifecta of defeats against the SEC West for the second time in as many seasons. The Gators lost to Alabama, LSU and Mississippi State in 2010 before getting well against the Bulldogs. Georgia, on the other hand, is playing for a possible SEC title berth having run off five wins in a row since falling to Boise State and South Carolina to open the year.

We all know the history here. Florida has dominated Georgia over the past two decades the way no other team in history has. When the Gators are good, they beat Georgia. When the Gators are bad...they still usually beat Georgia. In fact, they have lost only three times in this annual series since 1990. That's a long time, but has to seem much longer to anyone in Athens. This is a year where everything seems to be lining up for a Georgia win, but then again, we've seen this movie play out before. In 2002, 2003 and 2005, Georgia enjoyed great success and claimed at least a share of the SEC East. Each year, they fell short against Florida. Will this be another season where they head to Atlanta despite falling to their bitter rival?

I grew up a massive baseball fan. Every morning I devoured the local sports section to read the box scores. Every night I watched my team, the Cincinnati Reds, on our local Nashville Fox affiliate or I'd crank up my dad's ancient radio and listen to the AM broadcast of the Reds' games. I collected baseball cards, played baseball, often watched the Cubs on WGN and the Braves on TBS, followed the Reds' prospects through their Triple A affiliate in Nashville, the Sounds, and stayed up late to watch baseball highlights. Each summer my dad and I would make a pilgrimmage to Cincinnati to watch the Reds play. One year we went to spring training. I was a huge baseball fan and everyone I knew in Nashville was also a huge baseball fan.

Indeed, Nashville residents dreamed of one day having a major league team. 

We had no professional sports teams back in those days and baseball was a tantalizing dream. Back in the early 1990's, when baseball last expanded, Nashville even "sold" 17,000 season tickets as part of an application to join the majors. A local group even selected potential sites for stadiums and did mock-ups of what a stadium would look like. The city was never really in the running for a franchise and when the Marlins and Rockies were added to the national league, local fans returned to rooted for the three largest fan bases in the city: the Atlanta Braves, St. Louis Cardinals, and Cincinnati Reds. Each team was around a four hour drive from the city and those of us who were baseball fans made do with a yearly trip or so to see our favorite teams play.

As a fan, I always liked the University of Tennessee more, but Cincinnati Reds baseball was a close second for my passions. I followed the NFL and the NBA, but not as aggressively as I followed college football, college basketball, and baseball. Then came the baseball strike in 1994. I was 15 years old and just getting close to college age. That fall with no baseball playoffs to watch I gave myself over to college football, the NFL, and the NBA. 

Then something strange happened. 

I never came back to baseball.  

Do Not Go To Tuscaloosa's Waffle House Late Night

Written by: Clay Travis

Tuscaloosa will be the site of the biggest SEC football game in years. Just be careful where you head post-game. In fact, you might want to knock the Tuscaloosa Waffle House off the itinerary. At least if this video offers any indication of what it might be like.

The most confusing thing about this fight is trying to figure out which side is which. Also, Good Lord, can you imagine if you were a wasted Alabama student and you just went to Waffle House to grab some waffles? Look out. These dudes just got scattered, smothered, and diced.

Come November 5th, how about this name for the contest: The T-Town Waffle House Brawl?

What's Next For Big 12, Big East?

Written by: Clay Travis

With Missouri to the SEC all but done, the male soap opera of conference realignment turns back to the Big 12 and the Big East. Namely, what the hell are these conferences going to do? Missouri's departure will leave the Big 12 with nine members. It also means that the Big 12 will face a tremendous scheduling quandary in 2012 that's almost as complicated as the SEC's trouble with 13 teams would have been. That's because the Big 12 currently plays a round-robin slate that sees each Big 12 member playing every other member for a total of nine conference games. (In basketball each Big 12 member plays every other team home-and-home for a total of 18 games).

Meanwhile, it's feeding season on the Big East again. Just as the Big East had hoped it would be able to solidify through the addition of new schools like Navy, Air Force, Central Florida and Boise State, Missouri departs and puts the Big East back in danger once again.

What does all this mean? Let's try and play some conference dominoes and consider what's likely to happen from here:

Yesterday LSU and Alabama both won to set up the SEC's first ever #1 vs. #2 showdown. Today CBS announced that it was taking the extraordinary step of moving a 2:30 central telecast to primetime at seven in the evening. The South is already treating the game -- which comes with a convenient bye week to increase the hype -- as a Super Bowl. By the time gameday arrives in Tuscaloosa, it will be like Mardi Gras in November. This game has the potential to be talked about for generations.

That's why it was surprising that the ticket market isn't that hot yet.

Particularly when you consider the fervency of the LSU and Alabama fan bases. Given that Tuscaloosa is an easy five hour drive from Baton Rouge and only four hours from New Orleans, the get-in price for the game isn't bad at all.

Arizona-UCLA Streaker: the Full Video

Written by: Clay Travis

Last night during the UCLA-Arizona football game a brawl broke out. The cause of the brawl? A fake ref streaker. Seriously. Entering from the sideline a student dressed as a fake ref provoked confusion. In a move reminiscent of Jimmy Hart, the fake ref distracted the real refs and a brawl ensued. As streaking goes, this is a pretty impressive achievement. First, the play is blown dead. Second, the "ref" escapes For a moment anyway. Third, the Arizona student section is pretty stoked. Fourth, how do you think Mike Stoops reacted when he saw this? Fifth, how many times do you think this cop will replay his tackle? Go back and watch this a few times, he waits until the student isn't facing him to make his move.

ESPN cameras cut away from the incident, but now you can watch a student identified as Jacen Lankow, rush on the field, and be tackled -- flattened really -- by security. Why can you watch? Because his friends taped it from the the student section.

Don't worry, there's no nudity.

Basically what we're trying to say here at OKTC is, get the hell out of the office, it's the weekend.

Ranking the Hotness of SEC Coaches

Written by: Meredith Hornsby

Sorry it's been so long since I've written anything....seems like Clay is hogging all the time on here!  That, and I haven't really had anything worth saying that hadn't already been said (much better) by someone else. However, with the SEC quarterbacks dropping like flies, I believe it's time to create a new Hotness Ranking - but this time, for the head coaches. I figure these are the guys with a little more longevity. Except for maybe Joker Phillips.

Sorry, man.  

The Head Honchos of college football have a lot going for them - fame, fortune, and in most cases, talent. But what about looks? Just like the boys they coach, these men have varying levels of hotness. Some look like they belong on the cover of GQ, while at least one looks like he would fit in better as a zombie dancer in Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video.  

When I rated the SEC quarterbacks, the guys were graded based on their official team picture to keep things relatively fair. This time, I've gone through Google Images to pick out the photos of the coaches that either made me swoon, cringe, or laugh out loud. There's no fairness and a lot of partiality, but it's my article so I don't care. :)  

Ladies and gentlemen, in no particular order, I give you the Coaches of the SEC.
