Gotta be drugs. I'm not seeing how 2-1 #9 Georgia is favored over 4-0 #6 LSU.

normally this would be an easy "W", but with both Driskoll and Easley gone, might be tougher than usual.

ITA.

...and the game didn't make CBS' line-up today. Those with digital cable can see it on ESPNU, but I would have to stream it and my wireless connection makes watching streaming very erratic. So, I'll read about it later.

I'm glad I wasn't anywhere near a casino this past week, as I would've lost big by betting on LSU.

TN barely beat South Alabama.

On a happier note, Lane Kiffin (may his name never be spoken again) was fired by USC this morning.

I've been licking my wounds since Saturday afternoon...that was a hell of a game and it was a classic.

This was in no way anything close to what I could have imagined LSU's defense would look like this year, even with 8 defensive starters from last year's team now playing in the NFL.

All things considered, we can still run the table in the west and wind up playing in Georgia still yet again this season.

...we shall see...

I'm with you. Pretty much used up all my nails in this one and nearly had to start on someone elses. Losing Gurley for over half that game didn't help either.

Okay, apparently I used too many nails last week, cause I needed more this week. Defense for the Dawgs has got to do better.

Georgia's defense was almost no help except in the 3rd qtr. rest of the game they just didn't get it done, and with key players on the offense out; Missouri embarrassed Georgia.

Only consolation, Florida lost to LSU.

It was truly weird to root against Florida. But I did.
