OK, bring it, haha.
It's stupid to say so NOW, so far from the game, so I will re-assess at game week. But I think we have the edge this year.
Of course we have to pull it off in T-town, so we'll have to see.

If all stands as is now, that's the defacto SEC championship game. I can't wait for that one...a lot of ball between now and then, though. :tu

I agree about the LSU QBs...Look at Matt Flynn (07champs). Good game manager, extremely smart.
Matt Mauck for the 03 team, too. Both were drafted to the NFL, neither of them to be a starter. Just brains with some
skills, which is what you need in a backup...low price, max payoff. Local sports station voice today said LSU
has a "Bama QB" Nothing great in the skills department, just a smart, cerebral athlete who doesn't lose games for you."
Strange way of putting it, but well said. LSU doesn't need Peyton Manning. They need someone smart and capable.
Which is why I am thrilled that Jordan Jefferson is out, hopefully for good. Dumb-a55. :r

If you want to watch a "flag-fest", turn on the Miss. St. - Auburn game! I'm not sure the refs aren't getting paid on a "per-flag" basis!!!

Yeah penalty fest today, but turned out to be a nail biter at the end (if your a AU fan). And to think I turned down tickets to the game cause I had just gotten home from Opelika (right next to AU)

That was a tight game with Georgia. Honestly, I think Georgia they played above their ability yesterday. They wanted that win SO badly. Oh well, I will take a 'W' in the columns for my mighty mighty Gamecocks.

Boy, you got that one right, Scott! I thought the refs were getting paid by the number of flags they threw, for a while!! 2nd half wasn't as bad, but still, game took way too long because of flags! And, i don't think I've seen a game with that many flags waived off! And, I personally thought many of the flags were questionable, on both teams! Gotta love those SEC refs!!

Arkansas week. Glad we've got them at home. Opening line is Bama -12 1/2. Seems a litlle rich for my blood. Although Troy's defense gave them fits. Who knows. Any given Saturday.

I'm with you on this being too rich!

As to Auburn, now, maybe they will stop talking about losing sCam Newton, and talk about what their real problem is: DEFENSE! It was apparent their first two games, but glossed over because they got lucky and pulled rabbits outta their hats. Clemson made it glaringly obvious. And, if you don't have a defense in the SEC, it makes for a mighty long season.

I think the Bama-Ark line is too large because I'm not strong on Bama's Offense. They are already displaying the same "Red Zone" offensive weaknesses they have had in the recent past. And like you said, in college football...... Any given Saturday!

Kinda the reason I'm not big on the line!

Defense may very well win it for us, but, without a strong offense, it's much harder to win by large margins! And to be fair IMO, 41 points last game wasn't due to a super strong Bama offense, as much as a weak North Texas defense (despite giving us trouble in the Red Zone!)

Sorry fellers, I have been less than obnoxious owing to my being in Concord, NC for an entire week and AFK.
I was reading some online facts n figgers and read this.....West Virginia goes into the game averaging 42.0 points
and 435 yards of offense per game. LSU's defense is allowing just 12.0 points, 47.7 rushing yards and 207.7 total
yards per game.


Hehe, they WERE averaging 42 pernts a game, lol. Now I am not thinking that LSU is gonna walk into Morgantown
and just have their way all day, but I am feeling pretty good now that we are on an actual one QB system down in
Baton Rouge, NO MATTER the young man's previous history. And this is a GREAT year to have a so-so QB in the SEC,
cause almost no one's got anything better. So yeah, I see another W for the tigers. Hope we steal it from "W"VU.

Good luck BAMA, beat the Hogs.

Gotta tell ya, Brad, I'm putting this game as my money play of the week. WVU, in my opinion, will be as small as Oregon was against LSU but not as fast.
I think the bayou bengals roll*.

My Gators have a lot of questions left to answer (like our passing attack) but I think the East is wide open this year. Chris Rainey is playing in the same class as Lattimore and Brantley doesn't have to do too much to be as good as Garcia :D

True, but i think the East is ours to lose, and the only people that can kill themselves are the Gamecocks.

We shall see how they look against Vandy bc we have Auburn next week and thats not going to be a cakewalk.

OLS 09-23-2011 01:17 PM

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 
Is Vandy in the East? I guess I could LOOK but that would not be social.
Rizz, I think you have it about right. I have always been a homer for the Tigers, making whatever statements
I had to make to see if I could will them to victory. But this team looks extremely capable of bending time
and space around themselves to alter the course of events. Defensively anyway, lol. But the offense is at full
strength this week, and we have our Aussie Punter back healthy. Again, I am not about to write off WVU, but this
one should be in the sack. ;) GO F'ing Tigers!

And no worries....my secret crush has always been the Crimson Tide. I just happen to be a LSU fan, so
I cannot pull for them one week a year. It's BAMA that I think has a tough road this week. They might
have the best O Line in the USA, but something tells me that if they get behind late, it could be over for
em. Arkanasas MIGHT have the best wide receiver corps in the USA, so....
But I am pumped I get to watch both games on Saturday. WHO, DADDY, I best be smokin' my meat early
on Sadd-deey, cause I am in a CHAIR for about 8 hours straight.

I think I am going to just start calling Ole Miss "Miss". I swear they are their own worst enemy. They can't tackle,
can't sustain momentum, and waste gadget plays that work brilliantly. On the other hand, the UGA Bulldogs appear
to have righted the ship. And to think GGainey just gave up on em. Wait, he said he was ALMOST giving up, I forgot.

HO-lee crap, that was not good. A win is a win, but it looks like someone can simply watch the tape on LSU-WVU
and have a road map to whipping the tigers. Still, you gotta love the defense in general. Fast, cruel and tough.
We'll see how the Tigers do as they now look squarely into the jaws of the SEC.

10-4. Yeh it's just an amazing experience. My Parents have had season tix since i can remember. Me and the wife are going to tailgate with some of the guys from the jail and some of the guys from the street. They have a real sweet set up.

hammondc 09-25-2011 07:08 AM

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 
Well. My Gamecocks added another W, but jumping Jesus on rollerblades it was ugly. That may have been the worst game the Gamecocks have played and actually won. Garcia is killing this team. It is hard too because when he is either hot or cold. And.. it is to extremes. When he is on, he is deadly accurate and will rush it for 10+ yards if he has no pass option. If he is cold, he throws 4 INTs to a team like Vandy.

OTOH, the defense was crazy badass last night and held Vandy to just 77 yards. They have to get the QB situation under control or they will get demolished in the next few weeks ---Auburn, Miss St, Florida, Arkanasas and probably Clemson.
