The Schedule looks a little weak this week. But we said that before, and then 5 of the top ten went down. So we don't say that any more. In fact, going by averages this season, 3 of the Top 10 should lose every Saturday. Here's the list of the most likely to be upset to the least likely: Oklahoma, USF, Cal, LSU, USC, the other USC, Oregon, BC, Ohio State, W. Virginia
5 USF vs. UCF 12:00
This is a rivalry game. A year ago, this was a big game for both teams, one that could have gone either way. USF clearly has the advantage, but thats meaningless this year. Every year, you can throw out the stats for rivalries and the upset bug thats going around means you can throw them out for any game. Also, People outside of I-4 don't know how big this rivalry is. These teams hate each other. And if you think regular fans are scoffing at the #5 ranking, ask someone at UCF what they think of it, they might spit on you, or they'll ask you "whats college football? .... are you holding man?" These two teams are like two sisters in middle school, the older one (UCF, been around since '79) is jealous that the younger one (USF, 11 yrs old) has bigger boobs (a #5 ranking) has had more boyfriends (2 bowl games vs. 1) is part of a cooler clique(Big East vs C-USA)and might go to the prom (BCS bowl) and get banged by the backup kicker.(... this guy?)
1 LSU at 17 Kentucky 3:30
Let down game. Thats what you'll hear about it, whatever "let down game" means. Fact is, this is still Kentucky, and that ranking next to their name is meaningless. I was waiting till that game last week against south carolina to make judgment and here it is: Kentucky is Kentucky. See you guys in March. LSU rolls
7 South Carolina at UNC 3:30
A head coaching re-match of the 2000 Sugar Bowl, only with weaker teams, dumber mascots, way less offense, and two states caring instead of one, wait this just in, today is midnight madness, North Carolina no longer cares. (Its also a rematch of the fantastic Browns-Redskins game in 2002) UNC is coming off a big win against Miami, and probably think they have a shot here. They shouldn't, but this is 2007 and anyone can win anywhere. Time to buy a new shirt
11 Missouri at 6 Oklahoma 6:30
This is the popular upset pick. Mizzou has looked good so far, but I think they do this every year, hold on let me check..... yep , here it is: 6-0 2006, 5-2 2005, 4-1 2004, 4-0 2003 and never once did they win more than 8 games. Oklahoma wins big
22 Auburn at Arkansas 7:45
Can't wait to see which Brandon Cox shows up in Fayetteville. The one who hands touchdown flavored presents to a Miss St. defense or the one who owns Florida("owns" is used loosly here, as in one who makes few mistakes while D and special teams hands you W's). - Someone told me he has a disease that makes him do this, Some sort of permanent Mono / lazy ass syndrome where he plays better at certain times of the day? Someone substantiate this for me. Show me Auburn stats at a night game/noon game split. This one is at 7:45, thats the same as the UF/AU game, Auburn wins behind the stellar play of Dr. Jekyll
FSU loses to Wake again!
Oh they joy I feel. - This is what those jerks get for ranking the noles. Can you believe they tried to put them in the 25? I was about to do a post yesterday chronicling the lamest 4-1 record in college football, but I just didn't have time( ha, just kidding, I have all the time in the world, I just didn't want to depress myself). Hey Nole fans, you just lost to a team that lost to Nebraska, and no, I don't expect you to understand why that sucks, because you still live in a delusional 1994 reality.
