UT vs UGA game this past weekend pretty well settled the eastern division. As I see this, UT would have to lose three games while a team like UF needs to run the table to make it to ATL. I can see the Vols losing two, but three?

You right UT still has two more West team to play, Bama being one of them. Do you know which team that would be? Well, as of now I will be treating the UT team as I do the barner team, will not watch any game unless it Bama playing them!

:slap8: All you had to do is scroll up.

A&M ... CBS afternoon game this weekend.

LSU at #18 Florida - It is weird to not see LSU ranked .. Gators chomp the Tigers

LSU will get beastly again in Gainsville.

Big Ed O has the Tigers on the prowl.

Do we know what Orgeron is as a head coach?

I'll accept Ole Miss as Ole Miss with a caveat—in three seasons anyone should be able to win more than 10 games at Ole Miss.

I know people are going to want to point to the upset over Stanford when he was at USC. I also know I seldom hear or read about their loss to UCLA the same year. While UCLA did finish with 10 wins that season they were under .500 against ranked teams—they weren't that good.

I don't know if LSwho is for real all of a sudden, but I know that UF offense is hurting without QB. Tigers win

I saw this morning that Del Rio is still listed as questionable. Mac should have a presser today.

OUCH!! :doh2:
Well I will be able to see the game on Oct 15th Bama vs UT will be on CBS. :dance:

So, a sudden rush of energy that can last a while but eventually you crash, hard.

I wonder if we'll look at Red Bull in an ironic light Sunday?

LSU will play harder from here on out. Florida has 2 defensive linemen out and 3 if Brantly can't get back on the field. Guess what LSU does very, very well?

Wounded Gators

Just glancing at Covers.com ... A&M covers that ... O 56 looks tempting as well.

{That's funny thinking about posts complaining about Bama's running game and LSU is around five yards a game better.}

In answer to your question, I don't know. I know how they looked under Miles whom I consider a better coach than Orgeron. I know I don't have the slightest belief Mizzou could stop anyone this year. There's not a P5 W on their schedule so far.

Speaking of Missouri ... I'll claim that state this weekend: "Show Me" to LSU.

You're getting cryptic in your replies. Now I'm regrouping. Florida is damaged goods this weekend. The Tigers are healthier in body and spirit, so they're my pick. What did they have, over 400 rushing yards against Mizzou?

My problem isn't with the idea Bama can't run it, but have been extremely selective when they CHOOSE to run it. And the Western Kentucky and Kentucky game may have been chalked up to a glorified practice, but the first half of the ole miss game was nothing less than Kiffin taking his ego out for a walk.

How is anything cryptic?

I'm not convinced of Orgeron and his coaching ability ... that's only the beginning because I feel the same way about LSU, their win last week against Mizzou, their running game against a good defense...

There are factors that favor UF as well despite the injuries you've cited.

Mike likes O. You see this as a "beastly" win was it ... something like that? I don't.

(One of the reasons the Sportsbook is built in...)

I think Orgeron is more of a motivator at LSwho right now. They're riding an emotional wave with a new iHC and there are two directions that emotion can go... 1) you can only play on emotion for so long and then it's back to the doldrums, or 2) it can be a vehicle to build confidence as they have more success (i.e. 42-7 victory). I think that this wave will die down as the grind continues. In those close, hard fought, down-to-the-wire games that they will play, I think that is where Orgeron's going to have to be able to out-coach his opponent - and I'm not sure he can do that. LSwho is still a relatively dangerous team but I don't know if they can stick together and counter-punch when they get punched in the mouth over and over. We'll see if anything has changed since his last venture as HC in the SEC.

That's alot of sugar. Never understood the fascination with those drinks.

 

[planomateo]

This game should be fun to watch.

I wondering if it the sperm that is in it?

As just a drink, I agree. It's not that bad as a mixer ... IE: an Irish Trashcan isn't too bad of a drink.
