Nice summary Sarge. Pretty accurate too. I didn't graduate from either Ole Miss or MS State, so I generally support both of them

unless one team's coach is a blowhard and has players that play like they never had no home training.

I say go Mississippi and ride the wave until it crashes on the shore!

UNRANKED LSU BEATS #3 OLE MISS!?!?!?! HOLY SHIT!

Adrens Tigers playing spoiler, I love it!

Shit just got interesting in the SEC West again. Mississippi State ain't in the home stretch with a good enough lead either. Kentucky kinda proved today that they aren't entirely impervious. They could still lose 1 somewhere. Even if they don't, shit still remains pretty interesting and undecided up to game 12 of the regular season for the West.

Yeah, that's right. Either Yahoo didn't have it on there when I checked the score earlier, or I just didn't see it.

SEC West is gonna be tight for the rest of the season I guess. SEC East I suspect will be a lot less contended. Kentucky in my opinion should be the #2 team in the east, although they've lost to Florida, LSU, and Miss St now, putting them 2 games down from both Georgia and Missouri. But if Missouri plays as bad as they did against Georgia, they won't be holding 2nd place in the east very long. They've got Kentucky, Texas A&M, Tennessee, and Arkansas left on their schedule, which they could end up losing all 4. Yes, even to Tennessee, because the Vols don't completely suck this year. Georgia's still got Florida, Kentucky, and Auburn left to play. Florida should be a win. But if Georgia can manage to win against Kentucky, Georgia could still probably lose to Auburn and still lead the East. But as the season goes on, I'm starting to believe more and more that it's Auburn and Kentucky who should be worried about playing Georgia, not the other way around like I was thinking back in the first few weeks of the season.

Here I was thinking that the SEC was gonna be the most boring and uneventful conference this year.

I wake up earlier today with the TV still on. I remember, "Oh yeah, the Falcons and Lions are playing an early game today in London. Wonder what's happening." I flip it over to Fox, and it's halftime with the Falcons up 21 to nothing over Detroit. I'm like, "Wait.... am I awake? Is this a dream? Eh, whatever." So I roll over and go back to sleep.

I wake up again later, look up at the TV, and it's late in the 4th quarter, 21 to 19. I'm like, "Yeah... that's more like it."

I continue watching, and sure enough, the Failcoons completely implode in the last two minutes, giving the ball back to Detroit and allowing them to fly back down the field into field goal range. First attempt, they miss. But it's nullified by a delay of game penalty. Second one, from 5 yards farther... of course they make it to win the game by 1 point.

I just LOL'd.

The Yucks came through again. They let the vikings march down the field to kick the tying FG with no time remaining.
The Yucks win the toss and get the ball to start OT, then they fumble and the Vikings return it for a TD - Game Over

I have to admit, the Yucks are consistent - they find a way to lose every week.

The only thing better would be if he had the ball knocked out.

I think there was a college game a few years back where the receiver flipped the ball out of his hand in celebration juuuuuuust before he crossed the goal line. They went back and reviewed it, the other team picked up the ball after he flipped it, ruled it a legit turnover. LOL.

So, I put $300 on Florida state to win as a live bet when they were down 21-0 to Louisville.

Yep, I sure did.

Also, I got in on a bet where we all wrote down which 4 teams will be in the play-offs, and I went with 1. Florida state, 2. Alabama, 3. Oregon, 4. Notre dame

This weekend is the best for college football betting that I've seen in awhile. So many close match-ups, yet one team is marginally favored by the Vegas odds.

NC can beat Miami, duke can beat Pittsburgh, Florida international can beat rice, Boston college can beat va tech, Arizona can beat UCLA, California can beat Oregon state, Utah can beat Arizona state, Oklahoma state can beat Kansas state, UAB can beat Florida Atlantic, new Mexico can beat UNLV, south Alabama can beat Lafayette, Kentucky can beat Missouri. .. ok I think y'all get it haha. 90% of these teams are severe underdogs to the latter when they're all close match ups. All you have to do is parlay what you think are the best picks above with Notre dame beating navy(or something similar) and you WILL make money basically haha.
