Week 11 Results - Sub .500 . . . again

As it turns out, my double duty week was all over the place. Most of the games with blown out spreads ended up covering (to my chagrin) and I went a less-than-stellar 4-6. Without going into a game-by-game breakdown, Boises State, TCU and Oklahoma made repeated trips behind the woodshed, Florida didn't, and the upstart Temple Owls are bowl eligible and staring at a post-Thanksgiving matchup with Ohio for a spot in the MAC Championship game.

A quick Bonehead of the Week mention as well. Since I've missed about three of these, I feel comfortable singling out a few players on the Tennessee Volunteers. Redshirt Freshman Oliver was cited for allegedly stealing a brown Polo shirt valued at approximately $110 five and a half hours before kickoff (maybe he had nothing to wear to the field?), and three other players - Janzen Jackson, Nu'Keese Richardson and Mike Edwards - were arrested early Thursday morning on charges of attempted armed robbery.

From ESPN.com: According to the police report, the victims of the robbery were in their car outside a Pilot convenience store, parked next to a Toyota Prius, when a black male approached wearing a hooded sweatshirt, brandishing what appeared to be a handgun, opened the driver's side door and said "Give me everything you have." A second black male also wearing a hooded sweatshirt then came around to the passenger side of the victims' car, opened it and said, "Give us everything you've got." But when the victims opened their wallets and showed they had no money, a third black male approached the other two and said "we've got to go," and all three got into the Prius and drove away, according to the police report.
As bad as all of this looks, it gets even worse when we learn that the night before, coach Lane Kiffin praised his team for not having any off-the-field issues. Well, besides the curfew violations from Jackson and Edwards in August or the supposed failed drug test by Jackson last week. But other than those minor things, life is good over in the Smokey Mountains, huh Lane?
 
As of 3PM, Edwards was still a member of the team, while Jackson and Richardson have been dismissed from the team. I have to hand it to Kiffin - just the threat of being named Bonehead of the Week was enough to act.

Week 11: 4-6
