Week Ten SEC Power Poll Ballot: Top and Bottom Now Crystal-Clear; Middle Remains Muddled
When the two best teams in the conference and the two worst teams in the conference square off on the same Saturday, it makes it pretty easy to fill out an SEC Power Poll ballot . . . provided, of course, that the league has the same number of teams this Sunday that it had last Sunday. Wait, what?...
Don't Bet On It!: College Football Predictions Around the SEC
Although I posted a 5-1 record in last week’s non-SEC picks to run my ledger for the season to 25-13, I will be dispensing with the national games of interest and disinterest this week, because there are none of the former, and because every outing occurring outside the Southeastern Conference this...
Don't Bet On It!: College Football Predictions Around the SEC
Although I went 5-0 in last week’s SEC predictions to improve to 40-10 for the season, it’s pretty clear that last Saturday’s Southeastern Conference slate was fairly weak, so you should resist the temptation to place any faith whatsoever in my skills as a prognosticator. Let me spell it out for...
Week Eight SEC Power Poll Ballot: The Countdown to November 5 Officially Begins!
It was a relaxing day in Bulldog Nation, as the Red and Black were idle and the Georgia faithful were able to watch SEC football free from anxiety. Consequently, I was tanned, rested, and ready---all right, I wasn’t tanned, because it’s late October . . . and, well, I wasn’t rested, because I’ve...
Don't Bet On It!: College Football Predictions Around the SEC
Thanks to my 4-1 record in my latest set of conference predictions, my SEC mark for the season presently stands at 35-10. That kind of luck can’t hold out forever, though, so, if you know what’s good for you, you’ll heed my advice: Don’t Bet On It! The following games all will be played on...
Week Four SEC Power Poll Ballot: Logjam at Top Followed by Steep Drop After First Four
The division races have taken shape, and it’s pretty clear at this point that Louisiana State’s visit to Tuscaloosa on November 5 and Florida’s visit to Columbia on November 12 will decide which teams are in Atlanta on December 3. This week’s SEC Power Poll ballot features a tiny gap between Nos. 1...
Georgia Bulldogs 27, Ole Miss Rebels 13: Getting a Decision When We Needed a Knockout
I’m going to be up front with you about this: I caught virtually none of this game. My son, Thomas, who is eight years old, is playing local youth association football this year, and his team had a game at 2:00 this afternoon. We had to have him there an hour early for warmups, which meant leaving...
Too Much Information: Georgia Bulldogs at Ole Miss Rebels
The Georgia Bulldogs and the Mississippi Rebels first met on the gridiron in 1940, when Ole Miss beat the Red and Black by two touchdowns between the hedges. A year later, also in Athens, the Rebels tied an Orange Bowl-bound Bulldog squad that would finish the year with nine wins in eleven...
Don't Bet On It!: Week Three College Football Predictions Around the SEC
Thanks to a 7-2 record in last week’s SEC picks, my ledger for the season in league play is 17-3, which might make you think I know what I’m doing, but I don’t. Truly, I don’t, which is why I preface each set of prognostications with a warning: Don’t Bet On It! Each of this week’s SEC showdowns...
SEC Football Coaches Reveal Their Superstitions
Since I recently said something nice about Jason Kirk, it will not surprise you to learn that, when Jason told me that this article was a "must-read," I read it. Hey, I was told I must. Of particular interest was the part about SEC coaches’ superstitions. As you know, I am pretty danged...
