WEEK 4: SEC PREDICTIONS

Dear Lord it’s a boring week in the SEC… So here are your very short list of predictions 1. Florida at Miami (-7.5): Florida’s not the train wreck everyone thinks they are, and if they wipe stupid penalties away, this’ll be close(ish). The problem? Wiping out the stupid penalties. Oh, and CJ Lagway has to perform better than the LSU game (not hard, I know). And they have to stop a high-powered Miami team, which has been playing virtually spotless football on both sides of the ball.  PREDICTION: Miami by 10. 2. Auburn at OU (-6.5): Jackson Arnold throws 2 picks on his homecoming, and Mateer keeps up the Heisman conversation. PREDICTION: OU by 7. 3. South Carolina at Mizzou

Week 2 SEC Impressed/Depressed List: Florida ain’t good

    So my buddy Davis was so excited about Florida this year. Still high from the National Championship in basketball, he’s been full of the joys of Spring. He talked about the speed. The fight. He told me: “This is a year where things are going to be better. We’ve got a lot of speed, we’ll be fine”. Midway through the USF game, he texted me: “I thought it would take more than 1.5 weeks to turn off the TV during a Florida game”. While it’s probably early to throw out the death knell for Billy Napier’s Florida career, this result wasn’t good. SO HERE’S YOUR IMPRESSED LIST  Mississippi State (2-0): We had the Mighty Cowbellers winning this game,

WEEK 6: SEC RANKINGS ARE ALL ****ED UP

I joked on Saturday night that my SEC rankings were this: 1-15: F**k knows 16: Mississippi State. And that’s probably right. Texas is the No.1 team in the nation and – by virtue of not playing while the unbridled carnage was happening around – would go as No.1 in my view. But are they really better than Georgia? Does Vanderbilt’s win over Alabama automatically mean that they are better than Alabama? Or Arkansas’ win over Tennessee mean that Sam Pittman’s team is better than the Vols? If you believe those guys at the AP Poll – who have Texas first, Georgia fifth (behind Ohio State, Oregon and Penn State), Miami sixth and Alabama seventh. Tennessee is 8th, Ole Miss 9th, LSU 13th,

Week 5 Rankings: Alabama’s back at No.1 in the SEC

At the end of the season, we’ll be talking about great games. If the Alabama v Georgia game isn’t in your Top 2, you’re probably wrong. They played out a crazy, wonderful, game-of-two-halves classic that was finished with a crazy-brilliant touchdown by a kid who happens to be the 17-year old cousin of one Serena Williams Anyway, here are our rankings after Week 5 of the SEC season. 1. Alabama: Calen DeBoer’s gonna win games he should have lost (see last season v Oregon and Texas) and lose games he should have won. His clock management will be questionable. But through all of this, he will be bloody entertaining to watch. It’s gonna be some ride, Alabama fans. 2. Tennessee:

Week 4 SEC Power Rankings: Tennessee’s our New No.1

1. Tennessee (4-0):While Tennessee won’t go No.1 in the AP Polls, Tennessee now has two wins over ranked opponents – one of the only teams to do so in this early part of the season. The Vols aren’t just your hyperseedy, fun-and-gun offense that Josh Heupel often throws out, they’ll also grind you to the ground. This team is goooood, folks. 2. Texas (4-0): ARCH MANNING ARCH MANNING ARCH MANNING PICK ARCH MANNING TOUCHDOWNS ARCH MANNING HEISMAN CONFIRMED ARCH MANNING ARCH MANNING DON’T MATTER IF YOU PLAYED NOBODY TODAY ARCH MANNING ARCH MANNING 3. Georgia (3-0): Resounding win over bye week, which is above most of the opponents that have played Georgia so far this year. 4. Ole Miss (4-0): Offense

SEC Preview: Should we continue to get excited about Tennessee?

Tennessee had one hell of a year in 2023. There was two sides. There was the amazing win over Alabama, which will live long into the memory. I think my house is still reverberating from the noise at Neyland, and I live nowhere near the place. The other side was the laughable loss on the road to Georgia and the “What in the hell happened there?” monstrosity that was South Carolina on the road, where Spencer Rattler finally looked like a great quarterback and Tennessee’s defense was actually what we thought it was (ie bad all season long). There is no doubt about it: Weapons have gone from the team, but it’s OK to still believe in the Vols this

Prayers from the SEC

As we know, the ‘Supreme’ Court made a ruling yesterday that public school officials could pray, because it’s a First Amendment thing. With that in mind, here’s a few public SEC figures that we think could deliver one hell of a prayer. And this includes Texas and Oklahoma, because we believe in Prophecy (Manning 3: 42). Nick Saban: “Lord, please let me have all the National Championships, all the five-star recruits, have $1 billion for NIL, and to beat everyone into the ****ing ground every year.” Auburn: “Lord, please show us another head coach after you rid us of Evil Brian mid-season. And we pray that it’s not the return of that tool TT, who has proved to be an embarrassment
