I have a feeling Okie State is going to get a major beatdown when they meet the Sooners.
Wouldn't be so sure. Bedlam game is being played in Stillwater this year, not Norman. I am more interested in the K state game. I hope they run it along with Clemson and Stanford. That would be enough BCS controversy to start the playoff drum beat loud and clear.

Hey Tennessee, looks like you're going with a new QB for the South Carolina game! Good luck!

Well on the one hand, I say probably 3 quarters too late but on the other hand, I feel for Simms having to go against #1 and then #2 in the nation. Buuuuut, he really was horrible even with sure fire passes to wide open receivers.

I bet 'The Ol' Ball Coach' is licking his chops. The great thing about UT is that if you show up early enough you get to play.  In other news, I'm watching Vandy manhandle Arkansas. So far.

Illinois becomes a footnote in the record books by being the 409th team to be defeated by Joe Paterno making him first all time in Div-I.
The self-destruction of Zook's team after starting 6-0 makes me giddy. I so fucking hate Zook.

And guess who is undefeated in the Big Ten  JoePa has the sleeper team of the year here. Only loss being to Bama so far. Hilarious.

Stanford's lack of athleticism is getting completely exposed by SC. Edit: Spoke too soon. Fucking Stanford.

That game.
That officiating crew had to have been the worst at spotting the ball where it actually was I have ever seen. They were giving guys on both teams an extra yard or two on like half the plays.

SC-Stanford actually proved to be a damned good game. I think if SC had a better coach they would have won that game. Monte Kiffin is such an assbag.

Monte Kiffin is their D-coordinator. Lane Kiffin is the head coach. I don't think "how good" the coaches were had anything to do with the outcome. If I had to look at the overall strats and play calling I would have judged USC's to be better than Stanford's.

Heh. Someone mentioned in a clip during the early part of the USC-Stanford game that the last time Clemson went 8-0 to start a season, they lost to GT the next week. History has a funny way of being repeated, no?

Really? I had no idea.  Stanford had a better game plan and had to. USC's talent, i.e. speed, kept them competitive. Stanford is going to have problems with any highly talented team. I look for Oregon to give them trouble too.

I'll point out here that the Dawgs managed not to fuck it up yesterday. I should be happy we won, but somehow it's a bitter victory knowing exactly how bad Florida really is, and exactly how close we were to blowing that game wide open because of OUR FUCKING SPECIAL TEAMS!

Georgia looks like the team to beat in the SEC East, to my eyes. USC has lost all their offense. Surely Richt can save his job one more time with a divisional win? Then they can get destroyed by whoever wins the west.

If that all comes to pass, he will keep his job. Even I will have to grind my teeth over it and give him another year. Florida, South Carolina, and Tennessee won't stay shitty forever, though. And I'm not 100% sure we can beat Auburn.

South Carolina has been shitty forever, and I'm suspecting that Tennessee will stay that way from here on out. The only competition in the East is Florida, and UGA should get the recruits to beat them. Richt is terrible.

South Carolina won the East last year. Down year or not, you can't call them shitty.
If you think that South Carolina won't compete, that's a misconception of either the clusterfuck of the East or the general strength of SC's program.
Tennessee has issues, they may take years to get over them.

South Carolina has historically been a very shitty program. I have no reason to believe that Spurrier will turn them into a legitimate contender every single year. They don't have the recruiting base that Georgia has. Tennessee will always have Memphis and Nashville to recruit in, but it seems as if their recruiting has suffered in the past 10 years. I don't know if the players in Tennessee just aren't all that great or what. They did, however, steal a nice recruit in their now starting quarterback out of Spurrier's back yard. That kid was the Gatorade player of the year, so maybe Dooley will be able to pick it up some. As for this year, South Carolina is a house of cards. I fully expect Clemson and Arkansas to beat them, and probably Florida will as well. If they played today I think Georgia would win.

We would, because they lost their best player to a knee injury.

Pac10 (now 12) officials are amazingly incompetent. See 10-15 calls in the UW- Arizona game, which included perhaps the worst call I have ever seen. Ball over the top to a WR; safety hammers him by hitting him in the UPPER ARM with his SHOULDERPAD. 15 yards for 'targeting'. Seriously- it was a picture perfect tackle- neither helmet was contacted, no one was hurt, etc. Nearly cost UW the game.

Don't sell your team short. They've improved and beaten a tough Florida team and a very tough Vandy at Vandy. I expect the Dawgs to win out and get into a decent bowl. (SEC title game excepted). USC has a shitty remaining schedule. You guys should win the East.

USC should lose to Arkansas this weekend. If that comes to pass, we only have to beat a bad Auburn defense, and then not trip over our own dicks against Kentucky.
It pretty much all hinges on Arkansas, though, because should USC pull out a miracle against them, all they have left is a bad Florida team.

John Brantley might be the worst starting QB in all of college football. Watching Florida play right now is trolling my TV. They're just awful.

If you guys lose to Kentucky again the entire team should be dragged through the streets and kicked bodily into Tennessee.

Kentucky has no shot this year. It's in Athens, and they aren't even going to have a chance at bowl eligibility at that point.

Oh, I don't know, he's doing pretty well for a 48 year old former relief pitcher.
