In just under an hour, at midnight Eastern tonight, "UNITE" will air on ESPNU. The program will feature a debate between Clay Travis and, well, me. The topic, of course, is Saturday night's game between the Georgia Bulldogs and the South Carolina Gamecocks. Surprisingly, given my deeply ingrained pessimism, I was asked to state the case for a Red and Black victory, so I gave it my best shot.

Please tune in tonight, use this as your debate open comment thread, and vote in the attached poll! Please be merciful about my verbal slips and my appearance.

My thanks go out to Danny Kanell, Reese Waters, and the "UNITE" crew for inviting me onto the program.

Go 'Dawgs!
