Week 5 in the SEC

[Corley1011]

Mississippi St at Georgia -7-

Who's on deck:

MSU: at UAB
UGA: at Tennessee

IMO the public will be all over UGA this week after UGA beat Ole Miss pretty handily and MSU barely beat La Tech in OT... Both teams have their moments where they look good and then they make you say WTF was that? MSU's LB's are going to have to play better than they have the first 4 games... Crowell is damn good and Murray is the best QB they will have faced all year... I really think this game comes down to which D can step up and make the plays...
My Prediction: 28-24 Either way



Kentucky at LSU -30-

Who's on deck:

UK: at S Car
LSU: Florida

This is the classic sandwich game for LSU... Coming off a huge primetime road win and Florida is on deck... Death Valley is not the same at 11:30am as it is at 7:00pm...
My Prediction: LSU 38-10



Auburn at S. Carolina -10-


Who's on deck:

Aub: at Ark
SCar: UK

This line is a little high IMO because Auburn only beat FAU by 16 and SCar got a solid W over an undefeated Vandy... SCar wants revenge and I think they get it, but Auburn will keep this game close
My Prediction: S. Carolina 38-31



Alabama -4- at Florida


Who's on deck:

Bama: Vandy
Fla: at LSU

This is gonna be a good one... Basically going to come down to Brantley vs McCarron... Who can make the plays and stay away from the mistakes... Should be a crazy atmosphere and Florida has revenge on their minds... But I like Bama's D to force Brantley into some turnovers like last year...
My Prediction: Bama 24-17



Ole Miss at Fresno St -4-


Who's on deck:

Miss: Bye
Fres: Boise

Things are not good for Nutt and Co. in Oxford right now... And this long road trip couldn't come at a worse time... Very late kickoff could be an advantage for Fresno... I doubt Fresno is looking ahead of an SEC opponent to Boise, but I have been wrong before... This one should be a shoot out like last year...
My Prediction: Fresno 41 - 35


Arkansas vs Texas A&M -3

Who's on deck:

Ark: Aub
A&M: at TT

I guess we should get used to seeing this
matchup haha... A&M has the revenge factor in this one and returns virtually everyone that played in this game last year... They should be plenty pissed off after blowing the OK ST game... A&M has 2 physical RB's and couple of very good WR's... Ark will have their hands full... Ark got beat up last week and I'm not sure how they respond, but I like the more experienced team here...
My Prediction: A&M 34-24


Buffalo at Tennessee -28-

Who's on deck:

Buff: Doesn't matter
Tenn: UGA


Even with UGA on deck, Tenn should win this one handily... Coming off a bye Tenn should be working on timing although staying vanilla... Bray should put up good numbers...
My Prediction: Tennessee 45-14




Vandy: Bye Week

Sorry for the double post... Damn iphone

Tend to agree on LSU Corley, they could probably name the score, but wondering how 'interested' they will be?

Auburn will not keep this in single digits.

I've been waiting for this weekend and planned on having A&M as my biggest play of the year up to this point but I don't think I can. They just have no team speed, especially on offense. When the guy that plays a little fb, receiver and everything is your fastest guy on offense at a 4.4 40 then you're in trouble. They can go periods of over powering teams but it's not consistent for the whole game.

They're defense is good but not deep enough so they get worn down.

I'm sure Bama put a pretty good hurting physically on Ark so maybe the Aggs pounding it down their throats will work but not enough for me to like them.

U really think ole miss can put up that much? that game will be in the low 20s,their D is actually pretty decent,it's their offense which is ugly....I think Fresno probbaly wins 27-20ish

 

[Corley1011]

I think Ole Miss can score on Fresno... Nutt will be doing anything he can to win a game

 

[LUNCH PAIL]

Can't wait to see Bama/Fla...think good defense will win out over good offense but should be a hell of a game especially in the Swamp.

The Tex A&M/Ark game is interesting especially both coming off the types of losses they had over the weekend. I lean Ark here just b/c I think they are better team. They can match up physically but are much faster...Okst team speed was evident in their comeback on Sat....I'll take a good SEC team and the points here....it will be interesting to see how both bounce back....GL
