I haven't been following KY's season but if they are the same way then flip a coin. Heads the Dawgs win, tails they lose. <br /><br />As far as the other games are concerned, I hope Bama and the Gators are at least embarrassed that they are playing these patsies in late Nov. As far as the most interesting game of the day is concerned, I almost booked a flight to Vegas when I heard they were giving LSU and 4. Obviously there's something here I don't understand but I will be surprised if Ole Miss wins.Budhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14931343220211035439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8320221605077796058.post-85748802682985785502009-11-21T09:24:36.316-05:002009-11-21T09:24:36.316-05:00Anon, Just think how good Clemson-Carolina would b...Anon, Just think how good Clemson-Carolina would be if they played Division I football?<br /><br />Just joking . . . I wonder if the game hasn't been hurt somewhat by Carolina's joining the SEC. After they run their season-ending gauntlet, they seem to stagger into this game shell-shocked, while Clemson is ascending. <br /><br />Not a good combination.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05072174037573441797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8320221605077796058.post-85905686486348820162009-11-20T16:25:32.109-05:002009-11-20T16:25:32.109-05:00You forgot Clemson/South Carolina - which would be...You forgot Clemson/South Carolina - which would be the longest continuous rivalry in the country if they didn't ban play between 1902 and 1909 after several fights between students. The other rivalries get lots of press and cute names, but Clemson/South Carolina probably has the most passion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8320221605077796058.post-73981726558808010722009-11-20T15:16:52.303-05:002009-11-20T15:16:52.303-05:00Funny the blogger should mention Ohio St-Michigan ...Funny the blogger should mention Ohio St-Michigan and cream of wheat. As someone who grew up about 1.25 hours from the Horseshoe, I actually do think a bowl of cream of wheat is good as long as it is cooked properly. And before Cracker Barrel, there was Bob Evans. Trust me, the Bob Evans restaurants in this part of the world are faint copies at best. The game really is important up there because that’s all they have. Indiana-Purdue? Illinois-Northwestern? Not very good. And the contrived Penn St-Michigan St thing is hardly a rivalry. So OSU-Michigan takes everyone’s attention. I always rooted for Michigan, just to be an antagonist (so yes, I’ve been like this all my life, not just on the SEC Expats blog). <br /><br />Then in the late ‘80s everything changed. My dad moved to Huntsville AL for a new job, then I moved to Charlotte to go to UNCC. Coming from Big Ten country, I thought the ACC played good football. I was corrected in short order when exposed to more SEC ball, and getting to see the Iron Bowl hatred up close on a few visits to Dad’s. Now I know where ACC football ranks – over there in the landfill with the Big Ten. Too bad this week’s SEC slate is so similar.<br /><br />Chattanooga at ‘Bama – ‘Bama gets a bye week before the Iron Bowl, just like Auburn. The Evil Empire 41, Chattanooga 7<br /><br />FIU at Florida – The team with the growing thug reputation hosts the team that got into a street fight with Miami a few years ago. Hmmmmm….. Gators 31, FIU 3<br /><br />Kentucky at Georgia – This game usually involves a lot of points. It’s hard to predict because there has been no rhyme, reason or pattern to the play of either team. Closing eyes, throwing dart at board... Big Ol’ Hairy Dawgs 31, Mildcats 28<br /><br />Vanderbilt at Tennessee – So who is Tennessee’s main rival supposed to be, Vandy or Kentucky? Lane & Monty 38, Vandy 21<br /><br />Misipi St at Ar-Kansas – Another off week for Mullet and friends. Ar-Kansas 41, Misipi St 21<br /><br />LSU at Misipi – LSU takes 3 quarters to adjust to the fact that the opponent doesn’t speak Cajun. Too late. Misipi 24, LSU 21Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
