Not a great slate of games this weekend once again, outside the annual:
GAME OF THE CENTURY
One game that might be a bit intriguing now that the playoff rankings have come out, is Notre Dame going to Northwestern. The Mildcats are playing pretty good ball right now and this could be an upset special. The Golden Homos are 9.5 point favorites. I'm calling it.
Northwestern 28
Notre Dame 27
(Since I called it, it will probably be a ND blowout by 40. I'm Nostra Dumbass like that)
Speaking of 40 points, that's how bad a dog Louisville is this weekend facing Clemson. Not that they were ever a juggernaut, but the Cards have fallen off the cliff after Super Lamar left. And Clemson is starting to get that shit together and look like one of the few that could go toe to toe with the Tahd. Just for the hell of it:
Clemson 56
Louisville 10
Fuck Georgia. No really...fuck em'. I was in Atlanta this past weekend and that nasty red and black was everywhere with the Florida game going on. I felt dirty. Those mangy dawgs go to Lexington to face the #9 Cats. Bottom line, the UK bubble goes poof. They can't score enough to keep up with FUGA.
Georgia 35
UK 14
GAME OF THE CENTURY: As everyone has rightly pointed out, this will be the biggest test by far for Bama with regard to facing a really good defense, which LSU has. What everyone has also aptly pointed to is the question of whether Ed O's boys can score enough to keep up with the Fighting Two'ers. We know what Bama has and as bad as it pains me to say it, dat boy good. Real good. LSU does nothing flashy. No great skill position guys. But they're solid across the board on both sides of the ball.
LSU beat us and Florida by dropping six DB's and only blitzing 6 times against us the entire game. I think they employ that again and trust their guys up front to keep the running game somewhat in check. I think this one is a lot closer than the 14.5 point spread would indicate. In the the end, though:
Bama 28
LSU 17
No deep analysis on our game with the Fighting Bonfires. Despite Ole Miss having a putrid D, I like what we did offensively. Showed some imagination with the play calling. However, that's the whole ball of wax with Gus' offense. If they can run the ball, it's like buttah. If they can't run, it's like a big shit stain in your Fruit of the Looms. I like GH's take with Texas A&M coming off a horrible loss and we're coming in rested. If Boobs are back:
Auburn 30
A&M 17
Whatcha' got?
