Thursday night football pits the Jacksonville Jaguars  and New York Jets from MetLife Stadium so we will do Jaguars at Jets Trivia on Wiki-Pete-ia on the Shemon and Sheppard Show on ESPN Southwest Florida.

And GOOD NEWS!  Our phones are back for the first time since Hurricane Ian!

In case you are not fortunate enough to be lucky caller number nine at 239-337-ESPN, then you are in luck!  Play at home and dazzle your family!  Stump your co-workers with useless knowledge!  Amaze your friends with your newfound intelligence!  Below are the actual questions AND ANSWERS heard during Wiki-Pete-ia on our show.

The Jaguars at Jets feature two teams fighting for their post-season lives!  The Jags were forgotten, in the midst of a slow rebuild following the Urban Meyer debacle last season.  Just when, nobody was looking they are in reach of the slumping Titans and some feel they are actually the favorites to win the AFC South.  A win tonight will go a long way toward helping them reach their goal.

The Jets, on the other hand started out surprisingly fast this season.  But issues at QB have plagued this team and they have fallen to .500.

Let's tee it up with Jaguars at Jets trivia.

Let's have some fun and play Wiki-Pete-ia!

Good Luck!
