Arkansas Press Conference: Texas Week

*Petrino talks to Agent on phone*

Petrino: Well how much are they offering?... Hmm I don't know how I feel about that city... No I don't have a problem with the air pollution... Well of course I'd quit coaching here in the middle of the season, but only tell them that if they offer me another mil...*to reporter* what was that?


Reporter: I said, Coach Petrino, How do you feel about Texas?

Petrino: Well, it's a good job, but I'm pretty sure they won't fire Mack Brown, and the whole state of Texas is pretty ridiculous.


Reporter: No, Coach, I mean the Texas game this weekend.


Petrino: Oh well it should be a good one, they pay Brown a lot of money, you pay me a lot of money, Everybody should get rich.


Reporter: How do you think the games going to turn out?


Petrino: Why should I give a fuck? As long as we don't beat the spread, I still win a cool $50,000.

*goes back to cell phone*


Petrino: Yeah, I know that I'm not looking to good at Arkansas right now... Well they left the cupboard bare. Besides if it doesn't work out, it's pretty easy to get out of a coaching job by saying that Michael Vick wasn't there. It worked last time.


Reporter: What did you do to start this weekend?


Petrino: Hold on let me get rid of these reporters *back to press* I went on some recruiting trips.


Reporter: Were there any good prospects?


Petrino: Well, I like the facilities and location at UCLA, but I don't know how I feel about being in Pete Carol's backyard. Arizona State was really nice though. Listen. I appreciate you all coming, but I've got a job to get... I mean do. Get in there Dick!

*Casey Dick bows down to him*

Dick: Yessir, Mr. Petrino, sir!
*Faces Reporters*


Dick: Hey dudes! What's shaking?


Reporter: Casey how prepared are you to deal with this Texas team?


Dick: Oh I was born ready! All I really needed was old Trigger here.


Reporter: Trigger?


Dick: BOOM!

*Flexes right arm and throws football out of reporters reach, into waiting arms of Alabama defensive back*

Reporter: Isn't that the kind of shenanigans that got you in trouble with Alabama?

Dick: No! I blame the wideouts. It was the offensive line's fault. The fans put too much pressure on me. Besides, where's the fun in playing Quarterback if you can't swing it all over the field?

Reporter: Maybe in Winning?

Dick: Fuck Winning! *Strikes Pose* Casey Dick for Heisman, bitches!

Word on the Street

The word on the street is that Tennessee quieted McFadden. Everyone is saying that, but Darren went out and got 117 yards on a day when the offense wasn't doing much. While 117 yards is 42 yards below Dmac's avg yards/game, it is still higher than what any other running back averages on a game day with another SEC team.

Knowshon Moreno - 106.29
Felix Jones - 90.17
Terry Grant - 87.57
Arian Foster - 85.33
Ben-Jarvus Green-Ellis - 81.33
Anthony Dixon - 80.33
Tim Tebow - 73.38 (though he does lead all other backs in TDs with 16)

SEC Basketball Player Profile - Ramel Bradley

Ramel Bradley questions a call against Mississippit St. in last years SEC tournament where the bulldogs sent the blue clad fans home from Atlanta early.

Name: Ramel Bradley
Position: Guard
Class: Senior
Height: 6' 2"
Nickname: Ball Hog

Ramel Bradley likes it when the ball is in his hands. He is pretty much a ballhog and the Kentucky fans have been known to call him on his selfishness. In his junior season his assist numbers went way up under the final year being coached by Tubbie Smith.

In Wednesday Night's Coaches vs. Cancer game in Rupp Arena, Ramel led all scorers with 24 points on 4-11 shooting. The key is he got to the line. 14 times. That's a lot of free throws and he made every last one of them. And for being a ball hog he led his team in assists also with 3 of them. Ramel might be blossoming under Billy Gillespie, but 24 points in a losing effort is still a losing effort. Ramel's 4-11 from the field is a little better than the overall 22-62 for the whole wildcat team which only went 9 deep and had Ramel Bradley playing a full 40 minutes.

Once again, a team that you wouldn't think could beat Kentucky beats them, and the Wildcat faithful are left with tickets they can't use. Madison Square Garden looked to have been full of Blue with Memphis already punching their ticket and UConn a likely favorite to be there in the semifinals, but Kentucky couldn't cut it and now their fans will be sitting at home.

Ramel is a good player and looks to be one of the prominent scorers on this very talented Kentucky team. He should have a good season, but he doesn't seem like a good pro prospect with his limited shooting ability and only being 6'-2".

As for everyone not associated with the Kentucky basketball program? Everyone is excited, and a little afraid. We all know Kentucky has good talent and a talented coach, but we were all kinda hoping that they would think they could just coast on that for the season. Losing this game early will mean 1 of 2 things.

1. Kentucky is really bad. Gillespie doesn't know how to coach and his players were way overhyped. They will plummet to the bottom of the SEC and make a run in the NIT.

2. Kentucky is going to play the rest of the season all crazy-like. They are going to become aware that talent and reputation will get you 0 wins and they will be out to prove they are the best.

I think it's the latter and other teams that have Kentucky on the schedule might be saying "aww s--t" right now.

Ramel Bradley hopes so. He can score and can play ball, but he and his team will have to get better on defense and execute on the offensive side of the ball, or the Kentucky faithful will be saying "aww s--t" a lot this season.

SEC Basketball Top to Bottom

1. Tennessee
2. Arkansas
3. Mississippi St.
4. Florida
5. Vanderbilt
6. Kentucky
7. Ole Miss
8. Auburn
9. South Carolina
10. Alabama
11. LSU
12. Georgia
    
    Tennessee is the clear favorite to start the season.
    Arkansas easily returns the most non-Chris Lofton Talent with tons of good big men and Patrick Beverley
    Mississippi St. has an excellent back court with Jamont Gordon and Ben Hansbrough.
    Florida has had some of the best recruiting classes it's not a question of 'if' they'll be good, it's just when.
    Vanderbilt - two words - Shan Foster - My pick for SEC player of the year
    Kentucky has some good talent and a coach that has been able to do wonders turning teams around, imagine what he can do with 2-Pat and Ramel Bradley
    Ole Miss - Williams and Curtis are probably the 2nd best front-court in the SEC. Andy Kennedy will do good things.
    Auburn had some solid wins last season and are very experienced. Their lack of big men keeps them from the top.
    South Carolina lacks scorers. Dave Odom has been able to work magic in the past, but he can't get good players in Columbia.
    Alabama would be so much higher if Ronald Steele was playing, but he's not. It's all up to Gee and Hendrix, I just don't see good things for this team.
    LSU has slipped mightily since their Elite Eight run 2 years ago. Tasmin Mitchell is their only good player.
    Georgia only has Sundiata Gaines. It could be a long season for the bull dogs
    
    The west is pretty weak and the top 6 are really the only teams that will make any noise this year. All of the top 6 should get in the NCAA Tourney this year and Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi St. should be dancing for more than one weekend. Kentucky is WAY overrated this season.

SEC Basketball Player Profile - Korvotney Barber

Name: Korvotney Barber

Position: Forward

Class: Junior

Height: 6' 7"

Nickname: Doesn't need one... No one else has that name

Korvotney is one of five double digit scorers for an Auburn team that will return a lot of experience, but not a lot of sucess. At 6-7 Korvotney and Josh Dollard had trouble getting points in the paint and this Auburn team relied a lot on outside scoring. That looks like it could be the case again this year with most of the height being on the 7 foot 1 inch shoulders of freshman Boubacar Sylla.

With 6 Double-Doubles from last year Korvotney looks to be a force in the paint rebounding and scoring. The Tigers are severely overmatched by most of the SEC's big men.

In Jeff Lebo's 4th year the Tigers hope to improve on a 17-15 season in which they swept in state rival Alabama and beat Vandy, the Vols, the Hogs, and LSU at home.

Korvotney Barber wants ta cut yo hair!

SEC Basketball Player Profile - Kenny Williams

Kenny Williams goes up against some girl playing in the WNBA now.... Look how beautiful that beard is!

Name: Kenny Williams
Position: Forward

Height: 6'8"

Class: Senior

Nickname: Kenny "The BEARD" Williams

Kenny Williams has a beard. It is beautiful. While Dwayne Curtis is the high scorer and marquee player for Andy Kennedy's team, Kenny Williams' Beard will sell the tickets in Oxford. Kenny Williams Beard and 240 lbs on a 6'-8" frame will intimidate opposition. His 7.1 pts per game won't get him any double teams, but he'll be right there for Dwayne Curtis to up his assist totals.

The Ole Miss rebels won't be making too much noise around the conference due to their lack of good guard play, but the big men inside will be making plenty of noises and continue being a powerful force inside the paint. The team must be a little flustered at being picked so low after standing atop the SEC West with Miss. St. last season.

Kenny Williams beard won't be flustered though. His Beard is gonna stand in the paint and block the best of them. The odd thing is with so much leaving from the SEC this past season Arkansas, Mississippi, and Mississippi St. will be the teams with the best inside games in the SEC. Kenny Williams' beard is excited about those games. He wakes up every morning and trims his beard, combs it out, and then heads to basketall practice. Ole Miss Coeds have been known to remove their panties and throw them to the beard unsolicited.

Kenny Williams has a beard on par with the beard of Chuck Norris, and this season he intends to use it.

SEC Basketball Player Profile - Shan Foster

Shan Foster celebrates a victory in the NCAA Tournament last year.

Name: Shan Foster
Position: Guard - Forward
Height: 6'6"

Class: Senior

Nickname: N/A you can't give a nickname to a Vandy guy

Of all 12 players I am featuring, Shan Foster can execute a backdoor cut better than any of them. The Vanderbilt players are like Ninjas, one second they have the ball at the top of the key and then they throw the ball to the wing and the smoke bomb and the next second they are recieving the ball under the basket for an easy lay up. It's that crazy Princeton offense that regular basketball players can't understand. You have to be smart, you have to be Vandy smart.

The Commodores have lost 2 starters from last years sweet 16 team, but are looking at preseason All-SEC First Teamer Shan Foster to lead them into a tough SEC east. Last years team started and ended the season with games against Georgetown, but coach Kevin Stallings has selected a more conservative approach with in state Austin Peay coming to town for a matchup in the Stage that is Memorial Colliseum, where the teams and coaches sit under the basket.

Shan Foster may not be everything this team needs as they expect to rely on Freshman Andrew Ogilvy from Australia in the center, or is it Austria?

SEC Arkansas vs. South Carolina preview

Casey Dick always will hold the South Carolina game dear to his heart. Maybe it's not as gay as that, but his freshman year, Houston Nutt opened the floodgates by removing the redshirt as everywhere someone was trying to come up with the raunchiest way of saying "Dick to replace Johnson for Nutt against Cocks!" While he was mediocre in that first game, Razorback fans were more excited to see someone more like a gunslinger out there. His replacement of Mitch Mustain in 2006 to the tune of 11/19 for 228 yards(which is still his career high) wasn't bad, but it was Darren McFadden's career high 219 yards and 2 touchdowns that gave the hogs the lead that they wouldn't lose.

The Gamecock Defense is improved over last year going from 9th in the conference to 5th in the conference, but the rush defense has gotten a little worse. Darren McFadden and Felix Jones look to run hogwild over the Cocks, but with Darren McFadden injured and Wide Reciever Marcus Monk below full strength it looks like this game could be decided by the running games. though Blake Mitchell has never had spectacular games against the hogs, his 2nd half comeback nearly broke the hogs until Darius Vinnet picked him off to seal the game for the razorbacks.

The keys to the game will be defense. How well South Carolina can stack the line to stop the run and how well Arkansas secondary can cover the pass. Arkansas started off the season ranked 10th in total defense, but in the month of October the hogs were 1st in defense as they fed on a steady diet of cupcakes, a low scoring game with Auburn, and the most pathetic team in the SEC, Ole Piss.

The other question will be if Casey Dick can throw it well enough. The hogs might be in trouble if they have to see this too much.

Bigfootfool Game Prediction

South Carolina 31
Arkansas 17

Arkansas may have been able to move the ball against Ole Miss, but that doesn't mean squat. The razorbacks passing defense was lucky enough to scare Auburn from attacking the secondary and forced them to use the ground game. With a wily coach on the other sideline like Nick Saban expect the Gamecocks to be able to score against this defense. All of the defensive momentum the razorbacks have is false belief and this game will expose them. South Carolina's defense is one of the best in the league and with Darren McFadden's sore ribs, expect them to beat him around the corner and drop him for loss.

JTExperience Game Prediction:

I think you give these defenses too little credit. I see this a slugfest, much like the Auburn game. S.C. is coming off a tough loss to the Vols, and the Razorbacks have turned the corner. D-Mac might not be at full strength, but Felix is teabagging dudes all over the place. The way I see it:

Arkansas 20
S.C. 16

Go Hogs. Beat Cocks.

SEC Basketball Player Profile - Walter Hodge

Name: Walter Hodge
Height: 6' 0"

Position: Guard
Class: Junior
Nickname: El Walter from Puerto Rico

El Walter is the oldest player on a very young team. Very few teams will get picked to even come close to 3rd in the SEC east with No seniors and only one junior. This team will be light on experience. They are already giving Billy Donovan back spasms, but you can't really count out a Billy Donovan team because they are all young.

El Hodge has played from the bench and started about 11 games in his two years at Florida. It should be expected to see him playing the shooting to Freshman Jai Lucas's point. With 50% shooting from beyond the arc his play will be key for this team. His Three point shooting actually has a higher percentage than Lee Humphrey, but with Humphrey taking about 200 more 3's than Hodge last year, don't expect him to be the same deadly threat, especially as offenses will be able to key in on Hodge with the rest of the lineup not being nearly as formidable.

Hodge needs to step up and become a leader for this team. He and sophomore Marreese Spights are the only players with solid playing time returning to this team. The biggest worry for Donovan will be if Hodge starts getting into Foul trouble. Even in sparing minutes last year Fouls became an issue for Hodge.

SEC Basketball Player Profile - Chris Lofton

That's right! Carry Me. For the rest of the season we're gonna do this all the time, no matter how good my ankle might heal. You guys need to carry me over to my apartment, we about to have a party. If you do, I guess you can stay. I mean, -- Hey! Bitch Hands off that ass!

Name: Chris Lofton
Height: 6' 2"
Position: Guard
Class: Senior
Nickname: Christ Loftong Bomb

Christ Lofton is the most dynamic player in the SEC. He returns to a stacked team that includes the two nuckleheads Ryan Childress and Jordan Howell. Each of those players averaged more than 15 minutes per game, and had a combined 9.5 pts on average per game. I think they are better out there to carry Lofton around than anything, but at least Childress can rebound.

When Chris Lofton showed up in 2004 you knew he was going to be a special player. He played on the 04-05 team that put up a 14-17 (6-10) record and was basically the laughingstock of the SEC east. Only Georgia was worse, but then Bruce Pearl showed up and the team that wasn't a factor suddenly became one. Tennessee fans became to fill up Thompson-Boling Arena for their men's team not just the women.

Chris Lofton has been a huge part of that turn around and his 20 and 30 point games should be more of a factor for his team picked to win the SEC overall. Like all basketball players, Chris Lofton doesn't care what the preseason says. He's ready. "It matters at the end of the season how you do."

The real stuff you can say about Chris Lofton? Dude is crazy. He likes to just walk a few feet past half court and launch it. You're gonna stick a hand in his face and contest his shot? Dude, Chris Lofton says forget that shit, I'm gonna make it. Billy Donovan called Chris Lofton the "Best Bad-shot-shooter." Meaning he can make something from nothing.

Chris Lofton had this to say about that, "Sometimes I realize, but sometimes I don't, I think I take contested shots a lot but sometimes the shot clock is running down and I have to. I do take bad shots every now and then, but who doesn't?"

Players who pass the ball don't Chris. My biggest knock on Chris Lofton is his 1.7 assists per game last season. When you are getting double teamed and covered and having to take contested shots there is always someone open. Pass the Ball baby.

What We Know About the SEC: Week 9

Nothing... Absoloutley nothing.

Rather we don't know anything about any specific teams.

Wait a minute. We do know that Mississippi State Sucks, but not as much as 0-5 Ole Miss does.

This is a tumultuous time for the SEC, the biggest worries of the past were that our top teams would get worse and we'd fall behind the other BCS schools. That the BCS would leave our one loss teams out of the national title hunt. We now know our biggest fears should've been the middle getting to good. Before coaches would have their press conferences to begin the week and you'd always here the same thing. "From top to bottom the SEC is the best conference in the nation and any team can beat you. It's always gonna be a war."

Now it's TRUE! Kentucky beats LSU, Auburn beats Florida, AGAIN!, Florida beats Kentucky, Tennessee beats Georgia, then Bama beats Tennessee! What does it all mean!?!?


Alabama
What we know: John Parker wilson will throw the ball, and DJ Hall will catch the ball.
What we don't know: The result of the Iron Bowl. It has seemed like the Tide were gonna take it after Auburn's rough start, but the War Eagles and the Elephants are playing well enough to make this an interesting game.
What we don't want to know: A 2nd loss for LSU provided by the Tide this week.

Arkansas
What we know: The hogs can win one SEC game.... one. Darren McFadden has lost his heisman candidacy.
What we don't know: If Houston will be fired immediately after the 2nd game or if they will wait until the bowls are over.
What we don't want to know: The bankrupt talent pool that will be left in the wake of McFadden, Jones, Monk, and Hillis.

Auburn
What we know: They're the best 5-3 team in the nation and the only top 25 team with 3 losses.
What we don't know: What Auburn team will show up on a given Saturday. Will they run with the best or lose to the rest?
What we don't want to know: If the Auburn Mascot is an Eagle or a Tiger.

Florida
What we know: TIMMY
What we don't know: What the Jorts wearing Gator Nation is gonna do without a national title. The fans in the Swamp probably won't understand how they don't win the title after the great ride they've been on.
What we don't want to know: More Arrests for this program.

Georgia
What we know: Georgia is actually a SEC East Title contender.
What we don't know: The names of any other bulldogs besides Matt Stafford.
What we don't want to know: Anything about the artist formerly known as the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail party.

Kentucky
What we know: This team can win. They can beat good teams and bad teams. But they will never draw as much hype as their 12 friends in Rupp Arena do.
What we don't know: What will happen next year when Andre Woodson is gone.
What we don't want to know: Letdowns against Miss. St. or the Communists in the next three weeks.

LSU
What we know: It is very difficult to get through the SEC unscathed.
What we don't know: If Matt Flynn can get them out of another pickle like his clutch TD did this past weekend against Auburn.
What we don't want to know: Another loss leaving the SEC out of the national title hunt (unless it's to Arkansas, but I'm not even gonna try to hope that)

Ole Miss
What we know: They can't hang with anyone.
What we don't know: Who Ole Miss hopes to beat with Mississippi St. playing it's best football under Croom and the Rebels playing their worst football in 24 years.
What we don't want to know: Nov. 17th LSU crushing Ole Piss to the tune of 80 points or so.

Mississippi St.
What we know: Mississippi spelled backwards is ippississim. The Bulldogs want to throw the ball, but they can't. They want to run the ball, but they can't. The Bulldogs have fallen apart since their win over the Tigers.
What we don't know: Who they will play at Quarterback. Croom has taken the reins from Micheal Henig, and shoved them into Wesley Carrol's hands. Will Wesley Carrol crack the top 11 QBs in the SEC?
What we don't want to know: The Egg Bowl....

South Carolina
What we know: South Carolina doesn't want to win the East.
What we don't know: How Spurrier let the Dores beat him in a defensive struggle? Ugh, there is something VERY wrong about all that.
What we don't want to know: Spurrier going off and telling his players that they simply can't play. That dude's an asshole.

Tennessee
What we know: Tennessee can't win on the road unless they are playing someone completely terrible (read Mississippi schools). 1-3 on the road is no way to go through life,
What we don't know: If Tennessee fans and administration will allow Fulmer to make it through another non-10-win-season.
What we don't want to know: Fat Phil fired. He is SO easy to make fun of.

Vanderbilt
What we know: They have a football team?
What we don't know: Why they kept playing after Jay Cutler got drafted
What we don't want to know: Nashville headline "Cock Arrested in suspected Slaying of Communists"

The BCS is Dead? It's not even December

Bloggers across the landscape of the internet are all declaring the BCS to be a bunk system that sucks and it's gonna die this year etc. Okay, Everyone already knew that. All the presidents, coaches, athletic directors, players, fans, bloggers, and BCS conference commissioners are all very aware of that fact, but you can't say it's dead when the season is just barely halfway through.

Everyone claims that Ohio St. is gonna run the table with their ridiculously easy schedule... Is Ohio St. better than USC? No! USC lost to Stanford... Ohio St. can lose to anyone... We are well aware that this season is the season of upsets. This is the season where we realized that great teams won't lose to other teams that aren't quite as great, they will lose to the crap teams.

So before you claim the BCS is dead, just wait until the end of the season and see if you agree with who is in the national championship game... if you do, then be happy. Oh, and the NCAA champion is pretty much decided every year in Atlanta. The SEC champion is the National Champion just like the state champion in high school football in Texas is the National Champion.

Auburn at Arkansas

Two underachievers line up this saturday in the 'ville. While Auburn has bounced back from a 2-2 (0-1) start, the hogs are trying to get their first win in the SEC. The hogs have gone 0-4 in their last 4 SEC games.

While Auburn gave Florida the finger, taking a W from the swamp, and torching Vandy 35-7, the Hogs have been feasting on the sunbelt and UT-Chatt to try and regain their strength. The hogs let pony boy Andre Woodson escape from F-town with a win and hope that their defense can finally stand up and stop the Cox, but more importantly the Auburn running game. Auburn returned Brad Lester to the lineup last week after he sat out the first 5 games for undisclosed Academic reasons (Football players go to class?).

Projected to be the Tigers/Eagles #1 running back at the beginning of the season he now returns to the tune of 13 carries for 77 yards and 2 TDs in his debut. He somewhat relieved the much maligned passing game headed up by Brandon Cox who went 14/17 with a TD and an INT. Brad Lester was one of the bright spots in last years 27-10 loss to the hogs in which he had some great kickoff returns one for 68 yards.

The hogs defensive backs are just hoping not to have a repeat of the last time Cox came into Fayetteville, when he threw for over 200 yards and 3 TDs.

This game will come down to defense, and the hogs just don't have it. While both teams are very different than the 35-27 victory I predicted for the tigers early in the season, I think the score will still be the same. While the hogs seemed to play a really solid game against North Texas's High School team, they suffered a let down in the Rock and didn't play up to their potential.

With DMac in the backfield, the hogs can beat anyone, but the offensive play calling must improve and the defense must get a few stops. Against Kentucky, the hogs continually gave up on defense and bailed the Kentucky offense out with offsides penalties and more.

Auburn 35-27 over the hogs.

Weekly Picks (SEC edition): Week 5

Last week I was 10-5 on rivals pick 'em. Bringing me to 40-20, but I have actually moved up the rankings a little bit. I'll share my picks with you next week and tell you why I picked what I picked and what cruel twist of fate caused me to be wrong like the past 60 games have done to me. Here are the easy picks for this week. Very uninteresting SEC matches for the most part.

Alabama @ Florida St.
2 programs that have (at times) been at the pinnacle of college footall. Now where are they? Alabama fans think Saban is on the rise and FSU fans are biding there time. They know they can't make Bowden leave, but they will be mediocre until they find a new coach. What FSU fans don't know is that Bowden is really a corpse. With the Talent in Florida, FSU should be tearing up the ACC, but the Seminoles are actually sitting at 4th best of the 4 Florida schools.
Alabama over Florida St. 34 - 17

North Texas @ Arkansas
After two SEC losses and a stupid Offseason Hog Fans are ready to call the moving truck and have them knocking on Houston Nutt's Door. Fans on a message board have ordered a plane to fly over the Campus up until about 1 1/2 hours before the game on Saturday saying that "Fans and Players Deserve Better - Fire Nutt". Many people are labeling this as similar to the Zook incident, but the effort will be a little strange due to the fact that no Razorback fans will be there to see it for a non-conference clash against Tom Dodge's High School, Rent-a-W, Nice Green. Arkansas can't defend against the pass and gives up 300 yards through the air.
Arkansas over North Texas 52 - 27

Auburn @ Florida
TIMMY!!! Florida's offense is spectacular. After a poor showing by the team on the road at Ole "needs a mascot" Miss, the Gators are going to come back and prove to their fans in the Swamp that they can play football. Who better to do that with than this years 2nd biggest SEC dissappointment, the Auburn Tigers. Brandon Cox has lost it.
Florida over Auburn 42-17

Ole Miss @ Georgia
Matt Stafford and the Bulldogs have struggled somewhat after a loss to South Carolina, but they got some swagger back with a close win over Saban in Tuscaloosa. Ole Miss is reeling after a physical close game with the Gators. Coach O wants to prove his team is finally SEC worthy this season, but with this game @ Georgia it's not looking likely.
UGA over Ole Miss 35 - 21

Florida Atlantic @ Kentucky
Florida Atlantic is sitting atop the Sun Belt right now and looking a likely candidate to challenge Troy for dominance in the SEC's whipping boy conference. Rich Brooks squad has coached two tough come from behind victories for his team and Andre Woodson is getting his name mentioned for the Heisman despite his worst performance of the season at Arkansas last week. His fumble and allowing a Safety gave the hogs 8 points last week and nearly cost them the game. Kentucky has been known as a passing team, but the secret to this game will be the THREE-HEADED WILD CAT. Consisting of Rafael Little, Tony Dixon, and Derrick Locke. The three speedy backs torched Arkansas last week and will be going up against a much worse defense against the run.
Kentucky over Florida Atlantic 55-20

LSU @ Tulane
Tulane is Bad! LSU is good. LSU's offensive starters leave during the 2nd Quarter. Tulane's Offensive starters are either A) All eaten alive by Glen Dorsey before the 2nd half, B) All too injured by the middle of the 3rd Quarter, or C) All too afraid by the 4th Quarter after watching Glen Dorsey consume a live cow on the field.
LSU over Tulane 45-0

Mississippi St. @ South Carolina
Probably the most interesting SEC game in the fact that both teams have been playing better than expected this season. Only losses for these two teams have come against the greatest terror of the known world LSU. Steve Spurrier has decided to shuffle Quarterbacks, but what is the real secret behind all of this? Steve Spurrier has revealed himself by accident in the Georgia game to have been hiding behind his fun and gun explosive offenses at Florida. He is actually a great defensive coach and his team will grind it out behind Boyd and let the Bulldogs throw interceptions to them all game long. Sylvester Croom is making a last ditch effort to stay the coach of the bulldogs. If he wants to win this game he'll have to come up with a great rushing scheme for Anthony Dixon. The best player to play at Mississippi St. in a long time
USC over MSU 35 - 14

Tennessee has made it easier on all of our eyes by choosing not to play this weekend. They are gearing up for a "big" game against Georgia. It's pretty sad when Georgia vs. Tennessee next week won't count for anything in the SEC East race.

Eastern Michigan @ Vanderbilt
Vandy has come to the point where a MAC team shouldn't frighten them. Congrats Communists (red herrings). You are now an SEC football school. Eastern Michigan is bad even by MAC standards so hopefully even the socialists can't screw this one up. Vanderbilt students won't even show up for this game. They'll probably go study or something(drink beer). That's what you do in college right?
Vandy over Directional Michigan 42 - 14


I really went out on some limbs there I know. If I am wrong on some of these it just proves the one thing this season has been trying to prove.... Parity has come to college football!*DRAMATIC MUSIC*
