Other than AU-Penn State and Bama-Go Gaytah, the match ups are slim pickens this week, as most Power 5 teams are traveling to Cupcake City. Not making fun because I'm quite happy our guys got to tune it up and work out the kinks a couple of times before the first real challenge.
Tulane @ Ole Miss: This one is fairly interesting, to me anyway, in that the Greenies may be much better than they're given credit for. They had Mr. Rattler and his Sooners by the nads, before falling late, 40-35. Last week, they had their Akron/ASU game against Morgan State, but hung 69 on em'. Certainly, I expect Hobby Lobby to prevail, but this might be fun to watch.
Ole Miss: 48
Tulane: 35
Sakerlina @ FUGA: It seems that every year, the Cocks either pull the upset, or make the Pups sweat. Not this year. They won't score.
Fuck Georgia: 35
Cocks: 0
Bama @ Florida: This is the prime time CBS game at Florida Field. Two years ago, Auburn went down there and even Bo admitted the crowd was a huge factor. Couldn't hear himself think. If Bama doesn't jump out early and Florida has at least some success, they could be a factor again. The Gators are alternating QB's, with both looking pretty more gooder. Bama is a little dinged up at LB, but overall, that D has looked stellar in the first two games. I watched about two series against Miami and knew that shit was ovah. Bama also has some good backs, but it's obvious it's a step down from the string of beasts they've been able to trot out there the last 6-7 years. I think Florida keeps it competitive all day, but in the end, I like Bama's D to make the plays.
Lord Saybinz: 27
Gusty Gaytah: 17
Auburn @ Penn State: To start the 2020 season, The Fighting Pedo Bears gave up 36 to Indiana, 38 to Ohio State, 35 to Maryland, 30 to Nebraska and 41 to Iowa. All Loooosers. They had a good win against Michigan and closed with wins over the dregs of the Big 10. Just as the preseason hype rained down on LSU this season, Penn State has enjoyed the same love, and are currently ranked #10. Any conference win on the road is big, but Wisconsin dropped a big, fat fail twice to close out the game.
Co. Harvinz & Co. have had two games to get live reps in front of fans and TV audiences, against two Care Bears. But other than a period of sleep walking for a quarter this past Saturday, they've done exactly what a good team should do to an inferior opponent and hung a fat 60 Burger on the board each time, one with a little extra ketchup. Is this a "good team"? I think so. Tank is...well....Tank. Jarquez looks like the real deal, and if you recall, his HS coach basically said Auburn got the steal of the recruiting year. Franklin's staff can't poo-poo the game film this week, because Gus is no longer at the helm, and teams may genuinely not know what's coming every play. Plus, we have a QB who has been there, done that multiple times. He won't let the moment rattle him in the least. I like us!
Auburn: 31
Penn State: 20
What say you? Feel free to opine and generally go forth and fuck thyselves.
