SEC Week 10 Review and Week 11 Predictions

Went 6-1 last week with my only miss courtesy of the Gamecocks, bringing my total to 59-16 (78.7%). For a minute there, I thought ol’ Spurrier was about to bring his boys back in the 3rd quarter. I also thought Bama was going to pull off the big upset over LSU. Bama’s propensity for the big play is impressive. That’ll be something Auburn will certainly need to limit in the Iron Bowl. On to week 11…

Bummer 23 at Miss. St. 16 (+5)
Look for the Tide to struggle and possibly trail to the Dogs. Should be a hard-hitting game. I think the Tide will be ready to avenge their home loss last year.

Florida 31 at S. Carolina 24 (+6.5)
The USC team I saw last week had very little firepower. Florida is still fighting for a berth in the SEC Championship game. If UGAy & UT lose, they’re in the driver’s seat with this win.

Tennessee 28 vs. Arkansas 24 (even)
This is a very evenly-matched game. I’ll give the Vols the nod being at home. I really hope UT makes it to the championship game. They’re the weakest of the Big 3 in the East, yet control their own destiny. The West representative (LSU) should make quick work of them. Plus the higher-ranked SEC team leftover, if LSU wins out, would have a great shot at a BCS bowl.

Kentucky 30 at Vandy 14 (+3.5)
The ‘Cats will score. And, Vandy won’t be able to keep up. This win all but assures UK of their 2nd bowl berth in as many years.

LSU 42 vs. LaTech 6
Nice break for the Tigers before wrapping up the season with back-to-back conference games.

***UPSET SPECIAL***
Auburn 24 at UGAy 19 (-2)
Another classic battle for the Oldest Rivalry in the South. Normally, the road team wins in this series. UGA has asked their fans to wear all black for the game. Should look pretty cool if we wear all orange, like Halloween. And, I think AU has a few tricks for these puppies this year. Sometimes for unknown reasons, this game is a blowout. Don’t be surprised if it turns out the same Saturday.
