After three straight “showdown” weekends, my LSU Tigers are letting others sort things out this week - before engaging Fonzie in the ultimate SEC 2007 Showdown next week. This week in the SEC:
No. 11 Florida vs. No. 18 Georgia - The Dawgs haven”t looked good since … well, have they looked particularly good in any game this year? And the Gators haven”t looked bad since the Auburn game. It”s hard to pick against Florida in the annual “Florida beats Georgia” game, and barring the inevitable serious injury to Tim Tebow happening this week, it”s hard to make a case for Georgia here. Call it a feeling; call it wishful thinking … Georgia 31 - 28.
No. 16 South Carolina at Tennessee - What”s worse: getting embarrassed by Vandy or getting embarrassed by Alabama, Florida and Cal? That”s a tough one. If South Carolina had an offense, this game would be a cake walk. But they don”t. There”s not really much good to say about Tennessee at this point, but I like their chances of out-scoring the Cocks. Tennessee 24 - 17
Mississippi State at No. 14 Kentucky - Kentucky 31 - 20
Ole Miss at No. 22 Auburn - Auburn 38 - 6
Florida International at Arkansas - Huh? Arkansas 60 - 10
Miami (Ohio) at Vanderbilt - Oh, that Miami. Vandy 20 - 13
