Hellooo, sports fans, and happy October! May the cooler weather bring you argyle sweaters, autumnal leaves of various colors, hot alcoholic beverages, and good college football fortunes [disregard if Mississippi State fan]. We’re one month into the season, so things are about to start getting serious… like, Bill Murray attempting to prevent the EPA from shutting down a basement-nuclear-reactor-ghost-containment system in lower Manhattan serious.
Still wish Bill had a part to play in the new Ghostbusters reboot. Clearly he knows how to own it in a dress. Photo: Randy Holmes/ABC via Getty Images
Lot of great matchups this Saturday— Alabama at Georgia, Ole Miss at Florida, Notre Dame at Clemson just to name a few. But you don’t come here for a vague overview of several games paired with a recipe; you come here for a vague overview of one game paired with a recipe. Right? Right!

Marquee Matchup: #23 West Virginia vs. #15 Oklahoma, 10/3, 12:00PM ET on FOXS1
A battle of Big 12 unbeatens in good ol’ Norman, Oklahoma. The victor might have a solid claim on the Big 12 title come season-end, especially with TCU not looking as dominant as last season. I’ll keep this one brief. Although the Mountaineers are undefeated, they’ve played no one, and they’ve done it all at home. I like Boomer Schooner Sooner rolling in Norman. Bob Stoops and Baker Mayfield get the win in convincing fashion. My Prediction: Oklahoma 42, West Virginia 20
The Perfect Lightened-up Potato Salad for Your Tailgate
That’s right. We even know how to make potato salad healthier for you without sacrificing delicious flavor. We’re practically wizards over here. True story: Deb Wise, our Dessert Goddess, uses an 11-inch spatula made of holly and a phoenix feather core. Marinate on that for a minute.
Anywho, the fresh parsley, chives, and dill in this recipe really make it stand out over any tailgate potato salad you’ve had before. Whip some up this Saturday and take it to your viewing party. Your friends and family will thank you. Enjoy week 5, folks! Cheers.
