A perfect 5-0 mark in last week’s SEC forecasts improved my season-long league ledger to 39-9. Obviously, that means I am due for a letdown, so please pay attention when I warn you: Don’t Bet On It!
Here are my picks for this week’s slate of conference games, all of which will be played on Saturday, October 30, and with respect to which you may detect a recurring theme:
Kentucky Wildcats at Mississippi St. Bulldogs: No one in Bulldog Nation cares about this game. It’s the week of the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, for crying out loud! Mississippi State.
Vanderbilt Commodores at Arkansas Razorbacks: No one in Bulldog Nation cares about this game. It’s the week of the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, for crying out loud! Arkansas.
Tennessee Volunteers at South Carolina Gamecocks: No one in Bulldog Nation cares about this game. It’s the week of the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, for crying out loud! South Carolina.
Auburn Tigers at Mississippi Rebels: No one in Bulldog Nation cares about this game. It’s the week of the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, for crying out loud! Auburn.
Despite the fact that this posting offers the kind of trenchant analysis you don’t get anywhere outside of a Loran Smith sideline report---yes, I like boiled peanuts---you shouldn’t put too much stock in my prognostications, so, whatever you do, . . . Don’t Bet On It!
Coming Soon: National Games We Don’t Care About Because It’s the Week of the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party of Interest.
Go ‘Dawgs!
