Well, the coach formerly known as Captain Ron, aka Scary Smart, aka Bold and Daring is now a lame Prince. It made for an interesting afternoon on 810 Sports with Jack Harry and Kevin Keitzman going kinda psycho. Trouble within the Axis of Evil, dear?

Like the Terry Allen dismissal, some were disappointed that he was let go mid-season. Hey, talk to the folks at Circuit City. Getting the axe as the head man of a college program is a brutal public episode and I think everyone has some compassion from that perspective (except maybe the hardcore KSU fans), but in the end, Ron is going to come out okay financially. In fact, I believe he'll go on to become a fantastic color announcer for some network. He can break down a game with the best. Those who can't do -- get jobs in the media.

Okay, down to business. The VIC 20 supercomputer is now 16-26 versus the spread. Impressive. This is a reverse spread money machine. Straight up the VIC is 33-11. This week's predictions:

At MU 39, KSU 27
Vegas votes no on Prince making MU a 27-point favorite

At Texas 40, Baylor 20
Vegas likes UT (-27)

At Colorado 30, Iowa State 25
Vegas loves the Buffs (-9.5). This one is televised -- wee hoo!

OSU 35, at Texas Tech 34
Vegas has Tech (-3)

Oklahoma 38, at Texas A&M 24
Vegas has OU (-27)

Kansas 45, at Nebraska 36
Vegas opened with KU, but as of today Nebraska is the favorite (-1)
