A Quad Island: Your four-screen Survival Guide to Saturday
Resolution between a cartoon mouse and an organization named after the ABCs brings a return of The Quad of The Week. But it’s not a triumphant return. This slate is dark, for sickos only. And if you’re abstaining from the darkness and you happen to think of us sickos tomorrow, who are out here alone on Quad Island, please don’t hesitate to send supplies, water, maybe a care package. A volleyball we can make friends with?
Yikes. Here we go.

As always, we’re giving you the perfect guide to quad. The rules stay the same: no Longhorn overlap, four games in the same time window and one timeframe where you fire up the Quad.
Name: Stranded Saturday
Time: 630-7:30 CST
Game 1: Pitt at Georgia Tech (Yellow Jackets -2.5)
Game 2: BYU at Cincinnati (Cougars – 2.5)
Game 3: Tennessee at Florida (Vols – 4.5)
Game 4: North Texas at Rice (UNT -17.5)
Notes: My god. I imagine Horatio Caine of CSI Miami looking at this slate of games like it’s a mutilated dead body. Most people would be vomiting, but Caine has been around the block. He’s seen some sh*t before. He just calmly puts on his sunglasses and utters something incredibly cool like “I guess that’s one less placemat we’ll need for Thanksgiving.” Then Roger Daltrey of The Who will be screaming and we’re off to the credits. Luckily games 1, 2 and 4 kinda, sorta have CFP implications. But that doesn’t mean I want to watch. But this is my burden and I will.
PS – this is where we’d all be better off if we still had newspapers to read about the games on Sunday morning.
Movie (or show) pairing – no explanation given: CSI Miami if you want to laugh, Cast Away if you would rather cry.
