ESPN’s golf forecaster has Hunter Mahan winning the AT&T. One problem: it takes into account how the golfer has performed over the last five times a given tournament has been played. This tournament has traditionall been held at Congressional where Mahan has performed well in it but just missed teh cut at the U.S. Open. Translation: predictions are fun but you’d probably have a better chance at guessing DeShawn Stevenson’s current BAC than predicting the winner of a golf tournament. (ESPN)

Related, OSU has six golfers participating in the event: Peter Uihlein, Mahan, Rickie Fowler, Bo Van Pelt, Michael Bradley, and Chuckie Three Sticks. (ESPN)

Great article by Anthony Slater on Talor Gooch, who’s one of the final 32 at the U.S. Amateur Public Links Tournament. Winner gets a spot in the 2012 Masters. (NewsOK)

Not sure who this woman is (maybe you guys can help out?) but she’s somehow affiliated with OSU and on Jeopardy sometime this week and throws out a British-laced “Go Pokes” in her video. Hat tip to Pokelahoma for finding this. (Jeopardy.com)

Not much to say here, you just need to see this picture. (Amarillo.com)

I’m not a huge Springsteen guy (though my brother is) but this piece on Clarence Clemons is beautiful. (Brucespringsteen.net)

Please read the fake Jeets diary. I promise it will be the funniest thing you read today. (Grantland)

I feel you, dude. I really do. (College Football’s Most Dangerous Blog)

Josh Fields announced on Tuesday that he’s headed to Japan to play baseball. Bummed for him that it hasn’t worked out over here but this is a pretty cool opportunity.

He then tweeted this which, for all I know, might mean “screw Joe Crede and his Frank Robinson-like glove that never allowed me to jump to the Show.” Or it might just mean “Hi all of Japan, I can’t wait to be there!!”

Hilarious (and awesome) shot of Justin Blackmon with Olivia Hamilton, the girl he befriended last Fall who has leukemia. Hat tip to Gavin Lang for tweeting this out. Good stuff.

I think the West Virginia marketing department has toasted champagne at work every day since Bill Stewart “resigned” from West Virginia. The video editing department is probably pissed though for the amount of time it took to make this without including explicit language. More on this later today…
