MYS. TERY'S STAR LOCKS: WEEK 9

A body count is what makes a slasher a spectacle, and the stars have Libra victims stacked five deep in the cellar.

MYS. TERY'S STAR LOCKS: WEEK 9

A warm week's end welcome back to Turfman Industries' esteemed local apparition Mys. Tery, who's been college football game picks via star chart for us this season. Below, please find her Week 8 astrological forecast – as transcribed by our house medium Jamie Kirsten Howard – and please scry responsibly. (If you have no idea what you're looking at, or want to know more about our methodology on this little experiment, start here.)

2026 season record: 30-26.

Outlook for Week 9

All Hallows’ Eve is our socially acceptable excuse to show who we wish to be – or who we truly are. Faces that appear polished get painted as grotesque figures when game times begin. The Moon trines Mercury the Messenger (currently in retrograde) early Saturday morning, choosing tricks over treats for teams and officials. She’s also going void-of-course for the primetime slate. Playbooks should be reviewed carefully to avoid pranks. When you take off your costume, do you still feel like the character you try to portray?
