In a rare bit of trash talking, I am over here challenging you fine folks to a duel ... baseball style.

This weekend Athens plays host to the hottest college baseball team in the country, Kentucky's #4 Bat Cats (19-8 SEC).

They own the best SEC record, and a 40-11 overall record in what is without a doubt the best regular season in school history.

My question is, are you Dawgs up for a little wager?

If the Bulldogs win the series, I'll post a pic on the front page of a big, slobbering bulldog.

But if my Wildcats take the road series, you have to post a firce-looking wildcat.

Any takers?
