SEC Week 11 Review & Week 12 Predictions

Went 4-2 last week with the in-state schools tripping me up. UGAy "blacked" us out in the 2nd half. Never experienced a more rude group of fans than UGA. Of course, I've never been to Baton Rouge either. Bama got Croomed for the 2nd straight year. The days of taking MSU lightly are over. So, that brings my season record to 63-18 (77.8%). Auburn's off this week and Bama has a cupcake. On with the picks...

Bummer 31 vs. LaMonroe 10 (+25)
Just a tuneup before the Iron Bowl. I expect Bama to really work on their ground game.

Tennessee 27 vs. Vandy 13 (+12)
Vols have played well at home this year. Vandy won't be able to keep up.

UGAy 33 vs. Kentucky 23 (+7.5)
Should see some points scored in this game. Don't know if the Dawgs can post another 40-point game again.

LSU 40 at Ole Miss 14 (+19)
What a pitiful year for the hapless Rebels. Big 'O' may depart at season's end.

Florida 42 vs. Fla Atlantic 9 (+34.5)
Tuneup for the Gators before FSU next week.

***UPSET SPECIAL***
Miss. St. 27 at Arkansas 24 (-11)
Both teams are looking for their 7th win. 6 wins this year may not be good enough to make it to a bowl game. Arkansas can forget about beating LSU and MSU doesn't want to wait until their annual Egg Bowl either. I expect a physical contest. The key is whether MSU can contain the Hogs' running game. Should be interesting.

La Monroe - I didn't know they were such a powerhouse! I wonder if the honeymoon is over for Nickie-boy yet? Of course, they'll still come to JH fired up next week and I expect it to be a close game with our blacked-out cornerbacks trying to defend the long ball. I'll talk to you sometime this week.
