Josh--

I'm calling Tennessee over Bama, simply because they are playing better football overall.

I see LSU winning, but it's going to be a close, low scoring affair. Auburn is actually playing better defense than LSU lately, but Cox will get annialated.

Florida has had two weeks to rest and will take advantage of a KY team coming off a huge win. No way Meyer loses three in a row. BTW, Florida has two SEC losses, not one. All the more reason the Gators will respond and not get themselves further into a hole.

Pico, you're right. I had done my best to forget Florida's chokejob against Aw-barn.

I think Tennessee will win, too, sadly -- sadder still because I'll be in attendance when the game kicks off at dawn. My record is pretty good in games I attend, but I don't know if I have enough mojo to bring us home a win.

KY has to beware of the letdown effort. I can see this going either way.

LSU smells blood. That South Florida loss was very bad news for the 'barn.

BTW, it wouldn't surprise me at all if Bama won; that's a big rivalry game and they will be up for it. Hope you have a good time at the game :&)

That is now the greatest game I have ever attended and witnessed. Wow. Didn't see THAT coming. A win, maybe. That? Stunning and thrilling.

That one tops Florida and Tennessee two years ago and Arkansas this year. I love me some DJ Hall. May he wear Silver & Black next year.

LSU/Auburn games are becoming instant classics almost every year, and this one's no exception. I knew it was going to be close as they always are, but that's about the only thing you can predict about these games. Flynn was...dare I say it...magnificent. Auburn brought their A game, too, and it just came down to who wanted it more in the end.

I didn't get to see the 2nd half of KY/Fla but the outcome wasn't surprising. Looks like the 'Cats hung in there, though. And Spurrier lost to Vandy??!!

Congrats on the big win over Tenn. Good thing I hedged my prediction at the last minute, lol. The next game is going to be a little bit tougher for your boys ;&)

Tell you what, Pico, LSU was fortunate on a spot here and there and Les Miles is out to ruin this for you. I'm seriously questioning his mental competency.

I'll tell you something else... I'm not saying we're going to win in two weeks, but I'm no longer in awe of LSU the way I was a month ago. This is a team that really should have lost their last three games, holding on by the skin of their teeth to win two of them and losing one. Good teams win the close ones, but these guys are living too dangerously. That defense hasn't dominated in recent memory and the offense is merely good (Doucet could change that with another two weeks to get ready).

You better hope the game doesn't turn on a battle of wits between the two coaches. Unlike some Bama fans I don't worship at the first church of Saban, but our guy is far less dense than Miles.

It's going to be fun to watch.

Well, I don't think you should be in awe of any team. There are no dominant teams this season. And the SEC, as usual, is highly competitive.

Has Miles made the right calls? I could make a good defense for them but I think the results speak for themselves. Nick Saban is a very smart coach but I still don't envy his having to guess what Miles will do in any given clutch situation. I think that gives LSU an advantage.

That all said, Bama remains the Tigers' last significant challenge of the regular season. It will indeed be fun to watch.

A blind nut sometimes finds a squirrel. That the "gambles" (being charitable) have worked out doesn't mean they were smart calls. I think Miles is a nutjob and someone is going to make him pay for being clownshoes.

I was in awe of LSU early. They looked so loaded and fired up. Some -- some -- of the bloom has come off that rose.

A blind squirrel sometimes finds a nut. You're saying Miles is always finding the nut. Maybe he isn't blind, after all. ;&)

Oh, he's nuts. That much needs to be clear.
